Finn's Maine lobster

[finn's mom]

Hey, everyone. My parents got back from their Maine trip early this morning. I was asleep. I woke up a little before noon (I was up til after 3), and, my mom gave me some treats they'd gotten for me in Maine, and, also gave me a toy for Finn. It was a squeaky red lobster from Maine. It no longer squeaks, and, is mutilated. It only took him about five or six minutes to quiet the squeaker. It was a riotous six minutes though. Oh, man, I wish I could have gotten a video with sound. I'm hoping one day to have a camera that will record with sound and hoping to learn how to post videos. I'll buy him a squeaky toy just so y'all can hear what a spaz he is. He had my parents cracking up. He was happy to see them. So, was I. Anyway, I'll post some pictures here in a few minutes.

LOL! Someday I'll send you a squeaky toy just for Finn!!:D:D

[GraciesMommy]

Too funny...Gracie has a chicken that I WISH she would kill the squeaker in..lol

[KYS]

Sounds like Finn really loved his lobster toy. :D

So, there's the story of Finn's brief encounter with a Maine lobster. ;)

[Karen]

Poor lobster! He came all the way from Maine just to be dismembered in a few short minutes. And unlike a stuffed toy, it's not like he can have surgery and a new life! Oh well, at least he gave Finn a great 6 minutes of glee! :) Thanks for sharing the pictures with us!

Be glad you've only got one Finn! A friend of mine had two Wheaten Terriers - the longest a squeaky toy ever lasted was no longer than 30 seconds in their house - he timed them!

[dukedogsmom]

Poor lobster! Looks like Finn had a lot of fun with it. That was so cute. Finn sure is getting to be very handsome. I love that first pic where he's waiting for it.

I know, I like that one a lot, too! I didn't bother trying to fix his eyes, but, it's still a great one. :)

I know, but, honestly sometimes I wish I had another lab! :eek: But, if I do that, it'll have to be awhile. I'm lucky to have my parents helping me, that's for sure. But, one day, I'll be posting about a new addition. ;)

[cyber-sibes]

What a funny series of pictures! At least Finn really ENJOYED his present! I love the one where the lobster has it's claw around his muzzle - looks like the lobster tried to fight back!

That's what I thought, too! I like that one a lot.

[jesse_3]

LOL!!! Great pics! He sure looks like he had fun!!

Now, how many squeaky toys does Finn get? Does he try to break his record every time he gets one?

actually, that's only his second one. judy (shutterbug0303) gave him his first one in myrtle beach (it's one of those cuz ones, and, he broke the voice box in that one before we left the dog park!). He doesn't get those too often, just like he doesn't get stuffies very often, either. ;) he's just too destructive.

[PJ's Mom]

LOL :D I love Finn. He's too cute. :D

[finn's mom]

Yeah, here's what's left of mr. lobster.

Aw, poor lil' lobster didn't even have a chance with Finn did he. ;) Cute pictures!

[RobiLee]

Finn, you are just like my girls. They always have to destroy all of the stuffies and squeaky toys. You have them beat though. They still have their "bad cuz". So far they seem to like that one and haven't tried to de-squeak it....lol.

Hugs to you, Finn!

[beeniesmom]

Great pics!
You both look so cute playing on the floor too!
thx for sharing them with us.

[Jadapit]

Lol, cute story. That lobster didnt last long did it? Finn is so beautiful i love seeing pictures of him. I like the bottoms you are wearing. Cute.;) Are they pj's?

[Lobodeb]

Aww Finn! I hope your parents knew there was great enjoyment in the present they brought for him. To me, there's nothing more satisfying than your dog loving the toy you bought them. I too wish I had a camera that I could upload onto the net.

I know no squeaky is safe at my house and I only have a little baby, so I can't imagine how quickly a big dog can destroy!

Cute pics! Big hugs Finn!

[gemini9961]

That poor lobster didn't stand a chance. Great pics Kari. Finn is one handsome Lab. :D

Ha ha, yeah, they're strawberry shortcake pj bottoms. :) Living with my parents, I have to lounge in full attire. ;) No birthday suits here! They are really comfy, though, so, I don't mind.

They totally loved watching him play with it. My dad isn't the most animated person, and, he was grinning like a cheshire cat, it was awesome. It almost made me cry watching them watch finn. My mom was cracking up. :)

I love that....the feeling that someone else loves your baby almost as much as you do. FINN is so very handsome. But I love the way you can still see the puppy in him. Oh! The paws.............too yummy!
