R.i.P. Sledge, my hoggie :(

[Garter_Gertie]

Yeah. Glad he's okay. REALLY glad he's okay. That's what's important - the Hogglette's fine.

Great little play there Sledge
Nice way to start off my day, with a chuckle.

Baby hognose snakes are easily frightened and will play dead. Even c/b adults will if frightened. I've raised hogs before and most of the babies did it, so I knew what was up as soon as I saw that it was a hog. Very cute photos, I never caught mine in time to take a picture.

I've even paid for obedience classes for the dogs, and that's one trick I never got them to do.

*raises hand* My dog can!! It's cute

Gertie, I'm sorry you were offended... I thought it was just way too cute... I could tell by the captions that little sledge was fine and hamming it up for the camera. I am a bit twisted myself, but really I know Shannon did not mean to hurt anyone. ((hugs))

Shannon... I know you didn't mean to offend... Sledge is freakin' adorable & I looooved the pics My morning didn't start off so well and you put a huge smile on my face I just may have to have a wittle sledge someday

Jason, sorry to hear about the Jeep... sucks... always worried about that with my son's, too. Just bought him new soft door uppers 'cause someone slashed the old ones before we bought the jeep. Can't say it hasn't crossed my mind how cruddy it would be if these instantly met the same fate.

I'm afraid I see it both ways. Surely Shannon did not set out to offend anyone.

However, we all know just how much she loves her hoggie, and at first glance, the thread title was a heart breaker.

I think that it would have been better to have included "(Just kidding)" in the title of the thread.

However, jumping all over the girl is a tad extreme.

hey Gertie - so sorry you got freaked
the title got me too, but even as I looked at the first photo, I got a sneaking suspicion . . .
Casey Jones did something like that once
I don't think he was scared or anything - just hanging out that way
pretty funny

some things are better left unsaid so..................


on another note I got a kick out of the thread, no worries Shannon clever I thought.

Now if this was posted on April first, then I would really have lost it!
