Free Puppies


Or at least that is what the ad in the paper is supposed to say. Yes, our dog had puppies. Six of them to be exact. Jonathon has already named them. They are Sam, John, Charlie, Toto and Frufru. Yep, you counted right. Only five of them currently have names. I haven't really inspected them to find out if their names match their parts but I really don't even want to have to think about that. I just want them to go to a good home.

How is it that my dog has not been fixed, you ask? Well, obviously we did not take Bob Barker's advice to fix her. Josh bought her because he thought he might want to breed her. She is a purebred lab and has papers to prove it. We never ended up breeding her. But we never got her fixed either. Then one night she snuck out and the rest, they say, is history.

It wasn't until I started trying to photograph the new babies that I had an epiphany. See if you can tell what it was from that picture.



I'm White Trash. Did you guess it? Did the puppy playing by the toilet that is sitting outside clue you in? I don't say this to garner any sympathy, I just realized what our little place must look like to the neighbors. Not that it matters to me what anyone thinks, I'm just sayin' that I can see where one might drive by and think that a man in a wifebeater may come out at any moment, beer in hand, ready to pick a fight. Below I have included a little more evidence of my social standing, just for you're enjoyment.

Exhibit A: A baby walking around the yard in her diaper.


Exhibit B: Beach chairs folded out in the yard.


And last but certainly not least, the Dora doll that has been lying on my driveway for days now.

**I would like to go ahead and apologize in advance to all of the people who have been personally offended by this post. I realize that while it is very funny, it is not politically correct in the least. Thank you very much.***

Cute puppies and a cute baby. A very fine post.

And a very funny post. You must really be proper southern white trash with all that stuff going on in your yard.

If you were British white trash your garden 'ceramics' would be in avocado green or puce. And you wouldn't have any actual factual grass on the lawn (mown lawn - check you out. That counts for posh round these parts.)

So I think you are really quite classy.

I've got an idea? Put big red bows around the puppies necks and have your children give them to their teachers as end of the year teachers gifts! They would be so surprised and it's really hard to turn down a gift from such adorable children as yours. Here's a thought that just came to me. Mother's Day gifts! Give your mom and Pat a puppy for mother's Day.

You need to plant some real pretty flowers in those lawn "ceramics." And don't be bringin that camera around to this yard. I might just might beat you in your own contest!

I think its a southern thing to have toilets in your yard! Some cute Dandelions planted in those pots would be super redneck, I think u should do it & then blog it! LOL

When I saw the picture of the puppy by the toilet and you said you had an epiphany I was thinking that maybe you had decided to potty train the puppies! Maybe not immediately thinking "white trash" makes me white trash as well!

I love everything about this post and it strangely makes me miss home.

Being PC is "overrated". I have smelly diapers sitting in my planters outside my front door - the mailman loves it! Cute puppies!

Erin said...

My question is why are there tiolets in the yard? A bathroom redo? A quick spot for the kids when they are playing outside? Oh well funny post!

Sandman said...

Kid, all southerners are one toilet away from White Trash!

I'm trying to ignore those puppies ... I definitley can't let my Eli see them ... I can't afford to put up a fence right now.

Elizabeth said...

I, like Aramie, thought you were going to try and potty train the dogs too. LOL I would trade my apartment for your place anyday......toilets and all!!!

scrappysue said...

ah the politically incorrect ones are the best! but we must ask the question - why has your yard become a tiolet graveyard? what y'all doin in the can to destroy so many loos!?!?!?!?!!

at least u didn't mow your lawn and find a used car.....
