A long dog tongue can be challenging on hot days, especially when a girl wants to run! Everyone knows I’m short, but my tongue is like, well, world record long. Olivia and I thought it would be fun to post a few shots of us racing around the dog park with those tongues flapping.
Look out here I come, rounding the corner. Because I’m short, I get lots of heat from the ground below me that taller dogs don’t get. This causes my tongue to be out a lot more than most dogs.
Olivia’s tongue is shorter than mine, and she stays a lot cooler being over three inches taller than me.
When I run, my long tongue does flap around a lot. I feel like a need a support bra to hold it in place or something. Thankfully I don’t bite it. It kind of looks like my big canine tooth is holding it in place here.
Olivia’s tongue is really waving in the wind in this shot too, but it is not as long as mine is. I claim that record!
Some more racing around with my tongue hanging out. I’m just a happy girl and I love to run around, even when it is really hot outside. Even Bailie gets her tongue out when it is really hot!
Walking along, even on gravel or grass, the ground shoots a lot of heat up at me. I’m used to it, but it would be nice to not get so warm sometimes! For me, I guess my long dog tongue could be considered a fashion accessory from mother nature!
My GBGV Life is happy, so we’re joining Comedy Plus for Happy Tuesday!
Good for giving big wet kisses.
And we do give a lot of those out.
You can drink water a lot faster with a long tongue and give better kisses.
True, looking at the cats, they don’t get much water. We love giving kisses.
You need those beautiful tongues to cool off. It’s a good thing and you have some great tongues.
Thank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. Scritches all around and my best to your wonderful mom. ♥
They sure can hang out when it is hot outside.
Long tongues are good for sneaking samples off plates, too!
This is true. My sisters try that stuff, not me.
WOW you have a l o n g tongue! Just don’t bite it – that would be an ouchie! My tongue is not nearly as long as yours, and Puffin’s tongue is really short. Remember, do not bite your tongue! XOXO, Sparkle
I don’t think I have ever bitten it, which is a miracle.
That long tongue really is impressive and it’s part of what makes you your cute you self!
Thank you. It is the only super long thing I have.
A long tongue is better for kisses and licking out bowls!!!
I like giving out kisses, but I’m not much into food. My sisters handle that.
What a lovely fashion accessory. Madison! Olivia may have it in the leg department, but You sure beat her in the tongue department!
I pretty much beat everyone with this tongue.
looks like you had fun…..stay cool!
It was hot but fun, but then we hit the a/c and all was good.
So many fun shots!! You do have quite the long tongue there, Madison! We hope it cools down for you some there.
The humidity is down and we are only in the 80’s for the coming days which is nice.
Wow!! We can see how having a long tongue cold be a problem in a hot weather! Rosy is glad it doesn’t get too hot here on the Lost Coast!
Heat is not out friend, but we do love the winter and cold, so we put up with the heat for a couple months.
You do that a nice long tongue, Madison. It’s perfect for licking ice cream cones!
This is very true, and a good idea in the heat.
Garfield the Cat might say that dogs need a long tongue to lap up drool fuel!
Oh my, drool! Mom is not a drool fan, so luckily we don’t really drool.
You do have long tongues but that means you can always get the last lick out of any container!!
Mom’s yogurt containers are always spotless when they go into the recycle bin!
