Sorry, not exactly the most picturesque photos to start to the week.

Every time I see pictures of that, I think of singing along with the old ‘RAGGMOPP’ song, except, of course, ‘Dogbutt! Dogbutt! D-O-G-G-B-U-T-T Dogbutt!’
Oh dear… the visions that just paraded through my head as I imagined your “alternate” take. I will giggle over this for a long time. =)
I just wish I knew an easy way to insert a cute little icon over the naughty bits, like Japanese pet bloggers. But I’m pretty much an upload-and-go type with minimal modification (I crop, I bump some levels, but I don’t really know how to add anything in).
Bah. Dogs don’t have ‘naughty bits’. Either all of them is naughty or none of them is. Those sensitive souls who can’t stand to see dog(g) butt (or dogg ball, for that matter) are probably not up to the robust task of dog ownership, let alone having children.
It’s quite easy (depending on what tool you’re using) to do that sort of adulteration, but I beg you not to. Your pictures are lovely the way they are.
That said, I must repeat an anecdote that I mentioned on my blog a while back. It seems a friend of Autumn’s was talking about what dog breeds she liked, and which ones she didn’t. On the ‘did’ side were corgis. On the ‘didn’t’ side, shiba inus.
“Oh,” said Autumn, “But shiba inus are so CUTE!”
“No,” replies her friend, “They’re butthole dogs.”
“Well, they can be a bit standoffish, but…”
“No, that’s not what I mean. They’re always parading around with their tails up in the air. Corgis, at least, have a little modesty flap.”
And ever since then, in our household, corgi tails have been known as ‘modesty flaps’.
Speaking of songs, I had “Good times a Goo Goo” replaying in my head for a week when Emi arrived. Thanks a lot!
