Too cute!!
Thanks! He’s my boy.
“Paws smell like popcorn”
Yes! Why is that?? I thought I was the only one who thought that!!
Beautiful.
Yes…I don’t know why, but they do. And you are not the only one! My friends say their dog’s paws smell the same. Weird. My other dog’s paws don’t smell like popcorn. He’s a digger – so they smell like dirt and grass!!
Thank you.
Aww…… can he come and play with Cozmo? He’s so damn adorable!
Sure! He’d love to play with Cozmo. He’s a huge boy but is so gentle and gets along with every human and animal he’s ever met!
Thanks! Our animals are the best, aren’t they?
Aww .. Gus Gus .. how sweet.
Jerry’s paws smell like Cheetos.
Yep…my 95 lb. baby. He’s a sweetheart.
Cheetos? Yum! I’d be sniffin’ those paws constantly!
AWwww he is so cute!
Thanks, Kaylee. He’s my big, spoiled baby! You had asked how I came up with the name 2lazydogs…well, he’s 1/2 of it…and my other dog is the other half. They are two lazy dogs!
Hope you’re doing well…and getting ready to go home! Yay!
I miss having a dog. But I do love my three black cats. But nothing about them smells like popcorn. Gus looks like a happy dog laying there in the sun.
I have to have a dog in my house (along with other animals). I lost my 14 yr. old dog, Bailey, 3 yrs. ago and I didn’t think I’d ever be able to love another animal as much. I lasted 8 months without a dog…and couldn’t stand it any longer. We got Gus at Christmas and then 4 months later we adopted Ridley. We started out with three cats – my 16 yr. old female died of old age and my favorite male cat, Pip, got hit by a car last Oct. We still have his brother, though, and my daughter is trying to talk me into getting another cat.
Zoey’s paws smell like buttermilk. I’m always grabbing her feet and shoving my nose in there. She looks at me like I”m the craziest bitch she’s ever known…..might be true.
I love Gus!!
Ooooo…buttermilk. I’ve never heard of that. I’m gonna need to visit and smell Zoey’s paws. Ha!
Gus isn’t too happy when I grab his paws and sniff. He tried to jump through our front window last year and had to have stitches in his paw so he is a bit sensative when it comes to his paws. Poor baby. I love him too!
They do smell like popcorn. Or Fritos. One of the two.
Your dog is awesome. I can almost here him deep breath in with a snort and exhale a “rrrrrrrrrrrr”.
hee…you can see his teeth too.
I wonder why that is? So we’re tempted to gnaw those suckers off? I think not.
Thanks…he is awesome, and he does breath like that, especially when he’s got his face draped across my neck. He also makes these deep moaning sounds, and then he drools down my neck. This is what my life has come to. Good times.
I love puppy feet!
They’re the best!
Dog Haiku, nice! Seems like everyone is doing Haiku these days. I’ll have to get on it.
Yeah, since Evyl already did the Fuck You Haiku I thought I’d start out with something a bit more family oriented. M’kay, I’m done.
Popcorn? Has he been into the snacks? LOL. I think I know what you mean though – I wonder why they smell of popcorn? But that’s okay, I’m sure it is better than many other things they could smell like! 😉
It’s the strangest thing. I’m going to have to do some intense research on this popcorn-smelling-dog-paws issue.
Well, when he’s been traipsing through the pond they don’t smell like popcorn! Ugh.
My dog’s a puppy who’s still getting the hang of potty training. His feet smell like piddle.
Ooooo…piddle paws. I don’t envy you there…although the puppy days were awfully fun I don’t miss the mess. Don’t worry, you’re puppy’s paws will smell like popcorn soon enough!
Got it now!
Heehee!
YES! Popcorn feet….the best! That is an awesome picture!
Ridley’s never smell like that – his always smell like grass/dirt because he never stops digging! At least I’ve got one popcorn-smelling-pawed dog.
Thanks!
OMG!! I thought I was the only freak that smelled my dog’s toes constantly….I love it!!! Lola’s toes smell like popcorn too!! Every morning I get a little whiff to start my day;) ahahah!!
Hahahaha! I’m so glad I’m not the only one! If anyone saw me sitting on my couch sniffing my dogs toes they’d think I was riding the crazy train! Sometimes when I’m sniffing them I sing a little song that goest like this…”Popcorn toes, popcorn toes, my dog has popcorn toes”. Okay, maybe I am crazy!
Awww… I love the pic! And ‘Gus’ is such an adorable name.
By the way, “furrychocolates” refers to my two furry chocolate labs at home… Nelly and Maggie. My header is a pic of the two of them sleeping at christmas time. A handful for sure!
Thanks. We had a hard time naming him…but settled on Gus and we’re happy with it because he’s definitely a ‘Gus’.
Your girls are beautiful. I’d love to get a choc. lab but my hands are pretty full with the boys right now.
hahaha….I love this..my cat’s paws smell like nachos 😉
Oh boy, now I’m going to have to go sniff my cat’s paws and see what they smell like. I’m guessing kitty litter. Ugh.
Beautiful dog with a beautiful poem! I have heard it all-dog paws smelling like popcorn…I have also heard of fritos. Love it!
