tagged together in 253 photos dogs + edie Edie and Maddy pay close attention... ...to Vin eating a slice. Haha. ...out to meet up with Edie, Leigh & Ryan. Maddly LOVES Edie so much. Haha. Blessed with armrests . We had both Maddy and Edie with us! After, they came back to our place and played with the hounds. Edie and Maddy are almost the same size and they look like negatives of each other! Later that night Edie got dropped off at our place! It's hard to look cool when you've got a nose dribble, Edie. Edie loves a bag so much that if you open the top she'll jump right in. Pull up a box and relax, Edie! Edie came too. Hallway dog-fight! Later that night we emailed Leigh the picture of the dogs we met and she texted us this photos of the hounds back in NYC. Haha. Dogs, in general, aren't big fans of rock shows. We were dogsitting Edie so there were plenty of doogs to go around. On Saturday afternoon my parents came into town to see our honeymoon photos and have dinner. Leigh explained this to us and then demonstrated. "See? Stackable hounds!" Hahaha. Leigh's building has a lot of stairs. The dogs can climb UP stairs, but they have trouble descending steep stairs and need to be carried down them (because of their midgety legs and long wienery bodies). Turns out that the easiest way to get both dogs downstairs for a walk is TO STACK THEM! ...to pick up Maddy! Leigh and Scott had graciously agreed to watch our hound for us while we were away getting married on on our honeymoon ! Dog park. On Sunday morning we put the dogs in bags (no cages but bags are ok!)... Edie prefers to referee. Wiener parade! Three-wiener party! Watering the hounds. Couch doogs. These two guys even nap together all the time. Such buds. Badger dogs! All wiener dogs are always so excited to see other wiener dogs. They always run across the park to investigate. Look who was waiting for me when I got home in the middle of the night. Awwww. A North American Silky-haired Bed-Weasel! ...Edie did her impression of Triumph, The Insult Comic Dog! She even had a little piece of rawhide for a cigar. Spot on! My absolute favorite photo of Edie and Maddy. Awwww. Yes, hello? Us? Check out these dog-buds. Chilling. DOWN HOUND! Hahaha. Let me taste that delicious nose of yours! Funnily enough, I don't think this is the first time he's had two wieners in his face! Ba-dum-cha! I went into my office in the evening and found both of the dogs burrowing into the comforter on the couch. Edie had her face tucked under the edge... These two were very interested in the smell of frying falafel. Mmmm. Happy April 2009! Squinty. Total buddies. We arrived back at the apartment to find these two curled up in the afternoon sun. Wiener dogs on the move. So much awesome in my living room it's unbelievable. Just a basic Wednesday night hang. You literally can't have a bad day with these guys around. Three clean noses! No, I ATTACK YOU ! I ATTACK YOU! Ten hours later and they're still at it. Although, they moved the BATTLE ARENA to the much larger couch. Ear cleanse deluxe! No charge for you! Nose licking retaliation. BAP! Stubby brass paw to the ear! When these two fight, they make weird honking noises and if you were in the other room you would think it was geese and not dogs. Total weirdos. Hahaha. This photo makes me laugh out loud. (I also like how there's a rat in the background.) Back at the apartment later that night, we snuggled with dogs... Aw, really? On my way out the apartment on Monday morning I walked into the living room and these two were just sitting on the couch like this side by side. Total buds. Edie was there too. It was a regular dog party. On Sunday we took the dogs to the dog park together for the first time! Look at how Maddy used to fall asleep! All balled up light a little speckled hedgehog. Such winning hounds. Speckly pals. ...and then they settled in together. Edie turned in circles padding the bed down... I told Leigh that Edie and Maddy had become buds in her absence and put the dog-bed on the couch to demonstrate. Taking the doogs out for their first walk together in the Stuytown courtyard. Dog friends? ...and was surprised to find that Edie (who you can see has her dog-toenails painted!) considered my lap off-limits to Maddy. Haha. MY LAP! Maddy was forced to slink away in what is probably the most adorable picture of dejection ever taken. On Sunday afternoon, Scott brought Edie over to our apartment so she could meet Maddy. Maddy was as interested as she was concerned and kept getting chased in worried circles by Edie. Look at her eyes in this photo. Haha. But a couple minutes later, they were both excited to learn that my lap has a two-wiener capacity. She kept seeking refuge in my lap... Special appearance by Edie and Thomas! Edie has junkyard teeth! Edie has junkyard teeth! Later that night I went over to Leigh's. Here's me playing Edie like she's a guitar. Friends! Edie's favorite place to sit is a person's chest. Lazy Saturday. A-dorable. Happy Halloween, Crayola Weasel! Edie sort of got used to her costume and kept it on even after we left the park. On Saturday night Ellen came over! Happy September 2008! I Friday I hung out with my dog-buddy Edie. ...and dogs alike! This is one of my favorite pictures of Edie. Aaaah-dorable. On Thursday evening, Leigh stopped by and dropped off Edie to stay with us for a couple of days while she had to travel. Here's Meredith making sure our little competitor stays warm by stashing her away in her purse! Here's Mer, Leigh and (a foot-biting) Scott with the little, wiener-y contest all dressed up and ready to walk in her school bus outfit When I got back to our place, I was greeted by this friendly, turkey-boned visitor! Leigh had dropped off Edie for a couple of days while she was traveling! This is one of my favorite Edie pics because you can really see how long and weinery her weird body is! It also does an excellent job of showcasing her turkey-bone which you can see jutting out at what is pretty much a right-angle from the rest of her body! Oh, and Edie was there and rocking the school bus outfit that Meredith hand-made for her for halloween. Hahaha. Who's a cute little WienerBus? Watch out! They'll lick the shit outta your face! Animal FunTime Party House got even better when Leigh came by and dropped off Edie off with us! Look how excited Meredith is to have two little lap-weasels! Meredith and Edie. Goodbye, Edie! We'll miss you! Mom's home! Leigh came over to pick up Edie and she and Meredith modeled their matching shades. I love how Edie's sunglasses are sitting on her snout and her little doggy legs are just hanging down all slack. Hahaha. Best. Photo. Ever! Ready for bed, weiner-dog? Ok, then go ahead and tuck yerself in!
