This title might need to be abbreviated eventually.

But anyway. We took Tipper to the dog park on Christmas, which was amazing because hardly anyone was there.

There was a lot of this.

(If you can't interpret the picture it's basically bouncing up and down right next to me whilst barking hysterically.)

And a lot of running.

Small amounts of hovering.

Minimal butt biting.

More bouncing.

Butt scrunching.

Running AND barking (what can I say, the monster is good at multitasking).

Face/snow smooshing.

And a tiny bit of posing.

It was a very good Christmas.

So cute! The snow looks like fun! Eden is a butt biter as well...and a hopping barker. :)
Hahaha! I've wondered if that's only a Tipper thing. I've never seen another dog quite so obsessed/annoying about it.

Thank you guys for the comments. <3

Aww! Tipper is adorable. Even more adorable without the volume on, I bet. :p

Is she(?) a purebred PWC?
I very often wish she had a mute button. Lol. She's probably a heeler/corgi mix (she has long spotty legs). She's pretty much everything I want in a corgi attitude wise though - I wish she had more confidence but she's gotten a ton better in the two years we've had her.

Snow = me jealous! Love the pics!
Most of it melted yesterday. :( This has been such a weird winter.

Eden also likes to nip my belly - which I *despise* lol
o_O Tips mostly goes for the back of the calf and the butt. She more tooth bashes than nips though (which is mostly why we haven't attempted to put a stop to it).

These are great, what a fun little booger!
Thanks, she's very entertaining the majority of the time. The rest of the time....lol.

It's nice when you can have the park to yourself, or at least mostly to yourself.

I am a failure as a dog owner and was too lazy to take the girls for their Christmas dog park run. I sat around and ate chocolate instead while they played in the yard. :rolleyes:

That looks like so much fun!! I adore Tipper and her eyeliner.

Zinga is a thigh biter. I now only wear ripped jeans when I work her because I always end up with little Zinga-nip sized rips on my thighs.

For some reason I thought Tipper was a boy. :eek: For years now. . . I'm kind of clueless I guess.

She looks soooo corgi-like everywhere but the face. She's just adorable! I wonder what her siblings look like.

I love going on Christmas - only the dog people are there and it's so much fun. We can really only go on days when no one else will be there anyway though. Tipper gets overwhelmed after awhile and starts air snapping at dogs (which isn't a huge deal but it stresses me and Matt AND her out so we try to avoid it). She lasts a lot longer when there's hardly anyone there.

I think I saw your pictures from Christmas - your dogs looked super happy hanging out in your backyard. :p

That would drive me insane! I don't have enough jeans to have dogs putting holes in them! We're at the point where Tipper only herds us if she's waaaaaaay overstimulated and she really wants something. But she's never ripped clothing or anything, which I'm really grateful for. I bet she did as a puppy though....Mu tore a hole in my pants trying to get me out of the kitchen once. Lol.

LOL. Her and Mu are named pretty ambiguously so I don't get upset when people think they're boys. :p It's really really common with Mu actually (I guess it's her coloring and her standoffish attitude?).

I would dearly love to find the siblings for all my dogs. And puppy pictures of Murphy. Can you imagine how cute and fluffy he must have been?
