Casualties of War

I knew it was coming and was just a matter of time. Prior to Jax being born, our dogs, Eleanor and Ladybird have received our undivided attention. I call them my first born.


Eleanor

Ladybird

After Jax was born I wondered how these dogs would react to a little baby that radically changed the household dynamic. At first they seemed shocked and then curious. Finally they just gave the baby his space and would go to other areas of the house to find rest from the baby talk and crying. Well I guess that Ladybird has finally had it with Jax calling all the shots in the house and today she declared war.

The first casualty: Clifford the Big Red Dog Wubbanub Pacifier



I found her just now under the dining room table with him firmly in her mouth. She must have just got him though because she has them ripped all stuffed dog toys to shreds in less than a minute.

Here was the aftermath:

You can see some of the dog hair that now covers poor Clifford, but the picture doesn't do justice to the slobber that is also present.

She shows no signs of remorse and poor Jax has no idea what he is in for.
