{ Vaca Fun with Meatloaf }

So, while I was on our Easter break camping vaca, I decided to take Meatloaf out for a little walk. I was going to go boarding but instead decided to take him out for more of a get-back-to-nature walk cause, you know, he is a dog and they like that sort of thing, right?  Just as we started to walk along the campground road, I noticed a super cool, round fluffy dandelion seed head! 

I love blowin' those little fluffy seeds and watching them soar....this day was super windy so I knew this was gonna be fun!  Um, let me see, I need to make a wish first.  What should I wish for?  Oh, I know!  There, wish made.  Now for the fun part! 

ONE.....TWO.....THREE.....BLOW!!!  There they go!  Watch them float away!

Saaa-weet!  That was fun.  "Come on, Meatloaf!  Let's find some more!" I yelled.  Boy, he was fast and found another one right away.  He was so funny......he started sniffing it profusely.  I was like, dude, they don't smell....they're weeds!

So I decided to sit down with Meatloaf and see what he did with the dandelion.  He's such a crazy, fun little guy and he always makes me laugh with his curiosity and antics.

So I stretched out on the grass and dog-gone-it (no pun!) he just wouldn't give up the whole sniffing thing.  He sniffed all around it.  He sniffed under it, on this side, on that side...I swear if he was just that little bit taller, he would have sniffed it on the top too!  So, I thought, I'm just gonna have to try and explain this....again.  I know some dog breeds are supposed to be really smart but I'm starting to think Sarah should have named him Meathead, not Meatloaf!

I began - "Now Meatloaf.  This is a dandelion WEED.  It is NOT a flower.  Flowers smell nice, weeds do NOT.  Got it?" Based on the blank stare he was giving me, I was pretty sure he didn't but just when I was going to explain it yet again.....I saw it coming - a big Meatloaf sneeze!  A-CHOOOOOOO!!  Those little seeds were no match for a bulldog sneeze and it blew them right off the dandelion head.....hahahaha!  Soooo dang funny! 

Now personally, I thought that it was hilarious and actually pretty cool that Meatloaf did his own version of "blowing" the seed head - kinda like I did.  However, he seemed to be super puzzled by the whole thing.  I mean one second, the fluffy stuff was there and when he blinked during the sneeze, they disappeared.  He just stared at the empty little seed head with amazement and you could almost read his mind - "Where did they go?  It must be like magic or something."

 

"Funny Meatloaf!  You're the coolest dog around and I love you.  You make me laugh at even the stupidest things.  Every time I take you out to play, it's a totally new and crazy adventure!  Give me a big old wet doggy smooch! Now let's go find some more!!"
