#I say that because bellbell was an asshole about walks

OMG Bella sounds sooo sweet 🥺 now I feel like I MUST show you Merlin, the good boy in question. And a photo of him enjoying a bully stick for bringing you joy. He's also very smart when it's convenient. He can get into dog safe and childproof locks and trash cans, and push chairs to climb into tables, but he will ask to be let through doors that are already open. These two really do seem very similar and they probably would have gotten on like a house on fire ♥️

I apologize to all and sundry for how absurd I'm about to be but

LOOK AT HIMS

LOOK AT HIMS CURLY EVERYTHINGGGGGGGF

SO FLOOF SO PLUSH SO FULL OF MISCHIEF

LOOK HIMS HAVE COMPACT FEETS FOR TINY DANCER TIPPY TAPS AND WICKED LITTLE SCHEMES

It is important to me to know, does he make faces? I feel like he makes Faces, quality ones, faces that say "I have done something you would not approve of, but I am smug in the knowledge you will forgive me as I am a Jaunty Little Man and you are WEAK for my Big Little Eyes"

Thank you for sharing this majestic little gentleman, what a fantastic small cloud he is!

okay I was gonna hit post but then I had An Thought

but it was the middle of my work night and my hands hurt too much to do much in the way of composing masterpieces on my phone, so I resolved to add when I got home, but then I got out of work and fell asleep for um. a while. before I could complete the thought, SO HERE WE ARE, A FEW DAYS LATER, and here’s the thought I’m having

Are you aware of Christina Hunger and Stella the dog? I’m never not going to be thrilled by them; Ms. Hunger has taught her dog to tap AAC (Augmentative and Alternate Communication) buttons so that she can literally ‘talk’ to her humans and express her needs, and it is A M A Z I N G. I follow their account on instagram, but they have a more in depth website at www.hungerforwords.com, and Ms. Hunger has just published a trufax actual book about their journey figuring out interspecies communication together, it’s so frickin’ cool

anywho, I bring this up because Merlin is a precision hitter, and he hits for attention, so maybe he could learn to hit AAC buttons to express himself? IDK it’s a thought, I am always down for sharing wild awesome stuff, and again, I thank you for sharing your wild awesome doggo!
