Paws up!! Maine’s got it goin’ on!!

 

respect. love. adopt.

This is totally cool — the state of Maine now has a license plate that supports animal welfare.

Starting October 1st, drivers in Maine can purchase this special license plate that will benefit the State of Maine Animal Welfare Program. One half of proceeds from plate sales will fund investigations into animal cruelty. The other half will go towards the Help Fix Me spay/neuter program for low income citizens.

The Animal League Defense Fund has named Maine among the top five states for animal protection laws several years in a row. We say…

Yeah, Maine!! Paws up to you!!!

What’s up with the invisible dogs?

Invisible Dogs @ Color Me Katie

Just don’t try feeding us invisible dog food, OK??

Our servants went to Nova Scotia…

…and all we got was this pretty funky leash:

It’s the Ruby Cube leash from Lupine Collars & Leads. What’s so great about Lupine leashes?? Well, for one thing, they come in lots of cool colours and patterns:

And for another thing, they come with a Guarantee (Even If Chewed):

We understand the joys and frustrations of pet ownership! Although we can't replace the legs on your kitchen table or your best pair of shoes, we can do our part to help keep your best friend out of the doghouse.

Should anything happen to accidentally damage your Lupine product - including chewing mistakes - simply mail the item to us. No receipt required.

Even cats can wear cool Lupine collars — doesn’t it bring out the blue in her eyes…

Uh, yeah, so speaking of that best pair of shoes… Jackson did it!!

Why we haven’t posted for a while

Well, honestly, it’s because we’ve been lazy. Plus the servant has been home a lot lately and was hogging the computer. But now she’s back at work, so here we are.

In honour of our laziness, here are some lazy animal pics for ya, starting with some lazy cats… what, like there’s any other kind of cat!!?? All they do is eat and sleep and scratch up your sofa…

 

How is it possible to fall asleep in your food dish?? Dude, come on, it’s FOOD!!!! Can you not just take the 20 seconds required to gobble it all down and THEN take a nap?!

BIG lazy cat… we ain’t messin’ with this one!!

OK, OK, dogs are lazy too…

 

Did someone say… SQUIRREL!?!?!?

Is he sleeping or thinking??

Yes, I need to pee on every post!!

To answer the servant’s question, YES, I DO need to pee on every post I see. I’m a boy dog, it’s what boy dogs do. Just be happy I don’t do freaky pee things like this:

Happy Lickable Labour Day!!

Not that we dogs actually work for a living, but our servants seem to enjoy an extra day off…

Have a lickable Labour Day!!

Ahwooooo!!!

Hey, cool!! We’ve already got comments and followers!!

Lots of licks and slobbery kisses to everyone who’s come by to check us out, and who checked out the post about us on DesignTies :-)

So, Sax the Cat… yeah, we’ll bark at you from Canada. Trust us, we can bark LOUD. And we’ll bark at just about everything, even hot air balloons. But seeing as you were brave enough to wander into our doghouse even though we’re three pretty big dogs, we’ll let you hang out and play with us. But we might have to chase you now and then, just to keep up appearances — you know, the whole cat vs. dog thing.

Polly and Timmy, virtual butt sniffs to you :-) And great to meet another pant'-licker — pants are SO YUMMY!! Humans just don’t get it, do they?? There they are, wearing their pants all day long, and they have no idea what a fabulous smorgasbord of yumminess is right there on their legs.

We don’t have a Twitter account yet, Timmy — we’ll let you know when we do :-)

We’ve got lots of cool post ideas, so be sure to check in with us regularly. And we’d love to post pics of our new buddies. Polly & Timmy & Sax & all you other cats & dogs, send your pics to thepawsse@gmail.com and we’ll post ‘em here :-)

Happy licking!!

A word from The Pawsse

What, you’ve never seen a blogging dog before?? Just because you humans have opposable thumbs, you think you’re SOOOO much better than us dogs. Well, before you go getting all smug about being able to snap and do stuff we can’t do just because you have thumbs, remember that monkeys have thumbs too. And they do things like this:

We're just sayin'...

OK, just a quick intro and then we gotta get going. If you look up there at our header, you’ll see four very attractive and intelligent canines. On the left is Carbo. He was a great brother… sadly, he died last fall. But he’s still in our hearts, so he’s in our blog too :-) And then there’s Squirt the Black Lab, Kylie the Siberian Husky, and Jackson the Catahoula Leopard Dog.

Intros done!! Now we have more important things to get to — like eat, sleep, poop, and lick pants.

Oh, speaking of which — we really should explain the name of our blog, Don't Lick My Pants. No, it's not a porn reference. We hear it all the time from our servants. Mainly the one with boobs — she gets all bent out of shape every time Squirt licks her pants. Well, what does she expect — after a day of going to work and the grocery store and the dog park and spilling ketchup and chocolate milk, her pants taste good. We’re dogs, licking crap off things is what we do!! Haven’t you noticed that we quite happily lick our private parts and our butts (and then if you’re lucky, your face) any chance we get?? So chill out there, Missy, and get used to it!!

Anyway, now we REALLY gotta go. Weeehoooo, we’re goin’ to the dog park!!

Happy licking!!
