I’m so glad I was able to squeeze in a quick #hike with these adorable goofs before I left #washington. Sprocket spent most of the hike doing his best #gooddogcarl impression. (at Swan Creek Park)

Children’s books with peculiar messages (1 of 12)

My son is almost 2 years old which means we have accumulated quite a collection of books and have read them a million times.  Many are great, but some of these books have stood out for me as having some confusing or maybe not-so-great morals.  Or just elicit a WTF.  I’ll post one each day. Enjoy!

Good Dog Carl

This is the story of a negligent parent who leaves her baby with a rottweiler in an empty house.

Carl: Got it!  I’m a friendly dog ... but I should warn you that according to the CDC, between “1993 and 1996 Rottweilers (that’s me!) were responsible for half of all [fatal dog attacks on humans]”. Bad idea leaving your child with a dog while you go out. But I’m gonna go with *really bad* idea leaving your child with me.

Fuckit, let’s do some dumb shit together.

Carl: Um... I think someone’s calling you. You should probably go check it out. Looks totally safe.

It puts the lotion on its skin...

Ever see Finding Nemo? As Dory says: When life gets you down, just keep swimming.  Also, you don’t have gills, so you better swim or you’ll die.

Who found two things that’ll kill a dog?  This guy!

Hey, remember when we swam in the fish tank and you almost drowned?  Let’s do that again.

Carl: Yeah. Also I’ve called child protective services on you. Worst parent ever.
