Poop. Don’t forget the poop.

Oh, I guess that would be if you were reworking Sixteen Tons. Never mind.

You got some big-dog paws there, Wembley!

I forgive the lack of video because you put Wembley to that particular tune.

I heart the the ‘tude.

Most funny is that gimpified back foot with the freckled belly draped over part of it. Like it couldn’t get up if it tried.

Although I deeply miss Satchmo and Beckham and always will, this pupcake seems to embody the best of both. Deeply fuzzily cute (like Satchmo) and deeply devilish in appearance (like Beckham). The counterbalance is the delicious Fenlander, cover model of Basset Vogue.

Wait! That is his foot isn’t it?

Ya poop sixteen times, and whaddya get?
A “Jesus Christ” yell, and a trip to the vet.
Hey, buddy, don’t'cha tell me that I can’t go,
I’ll poop my way ‘cross the living room floor…

Spotted dick??? Ain’t that some English delicacy?

tBogg did say it was spotted

It’s weird how his skin is all lumpy.

What an expression on that mug–and those ears! Love it!

Well, it’s English. As for “delicacy”,…

I’m still laughing about video of him howling from the middle of the bed. I think that was “Oh Lonesome Me”.

“Delicacy” is British for “palatable”.

Less of that. No matter what stereotypes you have of their main courses, the British do not disappoint on pudding. It’s the apology for whatever was served earlier. Spotted dick isn’t delicate, but neither is British weather.

Nasty lookin little cuss.

And I do not trust anybody with freckles on his belly!

Possible revision:
You’re now sixteen weeks and what’dya got,
Four stumpy legs and one freckled pot.
Hey owner, don’t you call me ‘cuz I won’t come,
I got lots of stuff that needs chewing on.

How is it that his rear always seems boneless? I never saw a dog who seemed to be so floppy in his back half.

Soooooo….. He’s just about to start his evening reading? Those leather-bound volumes look very tempting….

His ears are perfectly pressed. The rest? Not so much.

Basset laundry tip: those wrinkles will come right out if you put him back in the dryer for 15 minutes with a wet towel.

out of the sun. he’s melting

lordy, those gigundo feets… just wait till he grows into all that skin.

Still looks broken when at rest.

Dang, your (other) readers are as witty as you are! At least when composing on the subject of pupcakes.

Btw, how did your formal pants-required event go? Were you charming?

Even with those pie-plate feet, he is a GORGEOUS puppy!!!

It looks like he’s saying, “You KNOW you want somma this!” Indeed, I do.

I have a can of Heinz Spotted Dick gathering dust in my pantry, because nobody else (besides me) will touch steamed puddings that aren’t chocolate.
