I didn’t realize Spider Man was a Vizsla fan until last night…

I can’t believe I am just now hearing Carsie Blanton’s tribute to John Prine, “Fishin’ With You”. I was listening to a “mix” and her song came on…I started thinking to myself, “Gee, this sounds like a Prine song…” and once I stepped out of the shower it was right there. It’s been posted by others here in the years since John passed away, but I figured there may others like me out there like me. Enjoy.

Unfortunately our dog watcher sent this photo of Benny with a swollen eye saying it started about an hour ago. We are not near home hundreds of miles away and our vet is not open on Sundays. I think it’s a bee sting as he (Benny, not our dog watcher) is always trying to catch flying insects, etc.

Anyone else ever have a dog experience something like this?

I was away this weekend, but my kids called flipping out that Benny had caught and killed a robin. Benny was proud, my wife was appalled, and the kids less sad than I would have thought…which concerns me.

I just happened to check out Amazon Haul one day as I was killing time and came across this COBI set. It was $20.12 USD so I thought I’d give it a try. Anyone else ever build this set?

I decided it was time Benny learned about his breed so I found a YouTube video…hope he retained the information.

Benny and Stella going at it earlier this morning. This was AFTER a multi-mile hike in the heat (100 F/38 C)…

Note: don’t worry, they had a body of water in which to cool off during hike

I may have won today’s battle, but come 6:00 am Benny’s batteries will be fully recharged and he’ll be getting my butt out of bed to play. #groundhogday

I went to Walmart to get an Icons set on sale only to find that the good price was for online only. Instead, I walked out with this display. I saw it on the top shelf and asked the first Walmart employee I came across if it was possible to buy or have if they couldn’t sell. He looked at it and placed it in my cart without hesitation and told me to tell the folks up front that the Toy Team Lead gave it to me.

Wife is going to get on my case, but it’s worth it! Not sure if I’ll keep long term or give to a kid in the neighborhood who loves LOVES Star Wars. Either way, I’m genuinely excited to have gotten a yes!

So I’ve decided to build this bad boy!

At pointing where the fence is!

So proud of my Benny!

So Benny got into my daughter’s backpack and got a hold of her homework. Then he decided to dig up the whiskey barrel I was prepping for some herbs. Finally, he decided one of the pillows was better off without the stuffing.

Of course, in all three cases he was pretty wound up because I hadn’t gotten him out and about enough. 😳

NOPE! Otto decided he wanted to get into a bag of flour I had in way back of car…no wonder his was so quiet.

Der kleine Scheißhund!

Over the last week Benny has visited Indie, our neighbor’s Mastiff-Lab. She’s over 120 lbs (54 kg) and a total gentle giant. We ended up watching her last evening and the dogs had a blast!

Otto was jealous of course…

The Wonder Twins, Otto and Benny, have been up to all sorts of shenanigans lately…Benny met his GSP last week, attempted to hack into the Vet’s network, point his first Cardinal, manage to escape out the truck’s back window, protect (with my help) his food from Otto, and most importantly…just hang with Otto on the front porch.

I’m lovin’ this Vizsla thing we got going these days!
