Nutterbutter has become quite the contrarian as he’s aged. Lately, he likes to pretend he wants snugs and then flop down on the console between us. I get the feeling he thinks it inconveniences us and that makes him happy.

CPotD #200: Snack Dog
Udo is happy to try everything we eat. Sometimes he’s a little pushy about it. Saying no to that face is difficult, so he gets way more crackers than he probably should.
CPotD #199: Faceplant
Nutterbutter has been extra snuggy lately, which means I get treated to more quality faceplant snugs. Nobody faceplants quite like Nutterbutter. He’s had a gift for that mode of sleeping since he was a kitten. I’m not sure if it’s genetics or his barn cat roots, but he’s definitely a champion.
CPotD #198: Hopeful
Udo knows when it’s snack time and when it isn’t, but he’s always hopeful for one of us to break out the pretzel bag. This is his Here to Help face. He’s such a supportive hound.
CPotD #197: Awww Yisss
Brian went around the house taking pictures the other day. He got portraits of all the beasts, including an excellent shot of Stanley looking smug on his mailing envelopes. If you ask Stanley what is best in life, those envelopes would probably be in his top three picks.
CPotD #196: Sunday Food Day
Udo loves Sundays. We don’t run the hate machines and we do have breakfast, and he’s a big fan of Sunday breakfast. I call this pic “Son of Bacon Face” because it’s his other go-to when he’s requesting a sample of our food. Like Bacon Face, it is highly effective.
CPotD #195: Nap King
Unlike Oscar, Nutterbutter is a little more selective about where he’ll sleep. He’s into hidden forts these days, but he’ll occasionally opt for a more sunny spot. Brian got this nice shot of him enjoying the afternoon light on the back of the couch.
CPotD #194: Impromptu Pillow
Oscar will use almost anything for a pillow, but he prefers our body parts. He doesn’t care which body parts, either. I’ve tested it and he absolutely will go to sleep on your hand if you leave it under his chin for more than 30 seconds. What a little snugadon.
CPotD #193: Pushy
Nutterbutter doesn’t always want to snuggle, but when he does, he doesn’t care if you do too. He’s coming over and you will hold him one way or another. He’s even gotten cuter with age, so he’s a hard floof to resist.
CPotD #192: So Boopable
Udo has the most boopable snoot I’ve ever seen on a dog and now I have photographic proof. Brian took this wondrous shot on bath day. Look at that face! He’s the sweetest, fuzziest, boopiest dog ever.
