Superdog Mocha and His Superball

Mocha had a stay at the kennel again the other day. These are the kind folks who put a bandana on Mocha after each stay. It sometimes kinda looks like a cape. Kinda like Mocha is… Superdog Mocha!

So here is the mighty Superdog Mocha! Lounging in his Superbed with his Superball, ready and eager for some… superfetch… superyeah!

Drowsy Doggie

Mocha is so out of it right now.

He just came back from the vet. They gave his teeth a good cleaning. This was his annual dental cleaning. Doing this requires being sedated. Though he’s awake right now, the sedatives are still swirling around in his little body.

So Mocha is just kinda wandering around, looking at nothing in particular and going nowhere special. Every so often, he’ll lean up against our legs or the wall. Or he’ll wobble for a moment, then slide to the ground and just stare. It’s like he’s high or something. So naturally, I had to take a picture of our lil drowsy doggie. Hehe.

Mocha the Guard Dog

Although Mocha has had some aggression issues, he is certainly one protective dog. That’s partly why he lunges at strangers, we suspect. He’s trying to protect us – as evident by this picture.

Here he is, standing guard by the patio window. Astute and alert. On guard for any sign of danger.

While walking him one day, Mocha lunged at a neighbor. The neighbor, to his credit, wasn’t fazed and just remarked, “He’s one protective dog. Train him well, and he’ll be a great dog.”

We definitely agree.

Sitting at the Doorway

Part of our training regime for Mocha is to have him sit before we let him throw a doorway. He learned this rule surprisingly quickly. It took him only three tries before he understood what he is supposed to do at the doorway. Good dog.

The Bandana

Oh no she didn’t.

We left Mocha in a kennel this past weekend. When we picked him up, he had on an additional garment. A bandana. Around his neck. Which Mommy later fashioned into an old lady head scarf.

Poor, poor, poor lil Mocha… Does he look happy? I think not.

Streaks of Sun

Streaks of sun,
form black & white lines.
Is he in jail,
for chewing Mommy’s Kleins?

Or just resting up,
Recharging with the sun.
Being an energetic pup,
It can be tiring having fun!

My Security Blanket, My Ball

You know how babies carry around their favorite security blanket everywhere they go? That’s how Mocha treats his ball.

Everywhere he goes, the ball is in his mouth. Assuming we don’t put the ball away, of course.

If we’re about to take him out, he’ll run to the door with the ball in his mouth (then drop it before he goes outside). If we’re about to feed him, he’ll run over with the ball in his mouth. If we’re going to bed, he’ll climb into his bed with the ball in his mouth.

‘Cuz that’s his security blanket, this ball.
