Labradanes and drool contest practice

I have a traffic feed thingy on my blog that tells me about visitors to this page and how they got here and I noticed awhile ago that my post "Who's your daddy...Is Moose a Labra-dane?" gets lots of hits from people googling Labradane! I had no idea that was an actual word until I noticed this and lots of people think they have accidental mixes and apparently some are even bred intentionally. Well, One of these googlers left a comment about his guy Oscar, and has even started his own blog about him! You should check him out: http://labradane-sillybigdog.blogspot.com/. He is new to blogging so if you stop by be sure to introduce yourself!
On another note, our actual Dane friend Honey has launched a 'Spectacular Slobber' contest where you are supposed to post some photos of your drooling skilz. Moose is quite a drooler but with the likes of the Relentlessly Huge Mango entering I don't see that we can be competitive without some serious practice!

Last night we snapped a pic of a brief double drool though it is hard to see (Drool is hard to photograph!) and by the time we got a good pick it was much less impressive! Definitely not his best showing.

I think maybe we are going to need some props if we are going to get an edge over the competition so tonight, after binging on some grass on our walk he came up with this one: It is a long piece of grass stuck in his drool that he carried for blocks! What he may lack in frothy volume of the bigger dogs, he makes up for with stickiness. Here is an old post showing the strength of his slobber! And some of you may recall his Wordless Wednesday post showcasing his special drool catcher. So we still have some work to do but I think with some props and good camera timing we might get some sort of honorable mention ;-).

  2. Excellent labradrool. I think Honey is going to have separate categories for the more drool challenged doggies out there.

    Labradane, huh? I will check it out. I've run into many of these new crosses at dog school. So far the only one that impresses me is the puggle. Every one is a great dog. As far as all those doodle dogs go I am unimpressed.

    Kisses,

  9. We have to get a photograph of Gem's amazing drooling. I actually have puddles in my kitchen whenever I cook or eat. Oh and bubbles form too from the best labradane ever!
