If you follow us on Instagram (wait, what…you don’t…well click on the Instagram link on the right and check us out), you probably saw a camouflage photo of me on the new carpet with a feeble attempt at humor from mom. Sam here. For those of a certain age, we use to read Highlights Magazine and go to the page where you had to find certain objects in the picture. Well I can tell you if I wasn’t wearing a bright new bandana, I’m sure mom would end up vacuuming me up. Now I understand why my sister, Elsa the Ninja complains she has it rough being a black dog on a black dog bed, but I didn’t appreciate what she was talking about. I mean, I’ve got hospital duty next week mom, so don’t vacuum me up, okay? I think I heard her reply something about ‘turn-about is fair play, dude’ but I could be mistaken. Should I worry?


Live, love, bark❣
Haha, Defintly hard to spot 😉
Adorable
Cheers,
M & Bear
I’m still afraid I’ll miss him if he’s curled up and can’t see his bandana. LOL
Waldo looks awesome…wooly like the furry carpet. Well camoflaged!☺
It’s is a bit like Waldo. Now find the scroll! And many thanks for the follow!
Most welcome😊
You make us laugh so hard! I’m sure your mom will never ever vacuum you up. Benji and team.
I dunno…she threatens way too often and I’m never sure of her sense of humor.
Your fur-iend,
Sam🐾
Believe us you’re fine. Tail wags and play bows. Benji
🤩
Wow you blend right in, now don’t be getting sick on that new carpet.
Gah…I hadn’t thought of that!
BOL!
3 bum swings! 3 more!💜🐾

Very good camouflage! We have a white fluffy cat who hides on a white fluffy mat by the bed, it’s a constant challenge 😀
We’re like landmines for moms. 😆
You knows, Ma hasn’t check my IG in a couple of days!!!! DEMERITS!!! Anyhu, that IS some FABulous camo dude!!! I KINDA blend into our rug, butts Ma still makes me move to vacuum under me. rude.
Kisses,
Ruby ♥
Us tan dogs keep our mum’s on their toes, don’t we? Mom says it’s hard to keep up with all social media. Hang in there!
Your fur-iend,
Sam🐾
WOW! You are one with the carpet! Thanks for joining the Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
😃 Thanks for hosting a great blog hop.
When mom got new carpet several years ago she brought home a sample to make sure the pug hair blended with it!

That’s absolutely the way to do it when your dog sheds.
Our Mom says she would probably trip over you:)

Heh, heh…what is it about you moms? 😆
Your fur-iend,
Sam🐾
Lol how I love your posts!! I wish you would write a book….
I’m kind of working on that but can’t seem to figure out if I should go serious or silly. Thank you for swinging by the Ranch. We ❤️ visitors.
Poodle camo! Love it.
Elsa’s not the only Ninja in this house. BOL
Great matching hearth rug and pooch.
I like to live a well-coordinated life. 😆
Good for you (mine’s more chaotic)!!
Trust me, it gets ‘interesting’ on occasions. At least that’s what my mum says. 🐩
stealth poodle
You dissapeared!! I can’t see you anymore!!
OMD your Mama is soooo silly!! Sadly I DO remember Highlights Magazine, (It was always in the dentist or pediatrician’s office) and I used to love to search for things lol. Remember Goofus and Gallant??? I must have focused too much on Goofus to turn out the way I did! lol. As for Instagram, you are soooo good at posting regularly there, I haven’t been there for over a week I think. Every time I start to be there regularly I disappear lol.
I remember “Highlights for Children” too! Loved it as a kid, until I reached a certain age. But gave my stepson a subscription the first Christmas after Sam & I started dating. Now he has his own kids. That REALLY makes me feel old! Watch out Sam! Especially if your Mom starts wearing sunglasses while she’s vacuuming! 🤪
Adorable!
Yes, you should be very worried.
People should take their dog fur when shopping for home fur-nishings.
I do so love that doggy camo! lol . . .
My ‘ruggedness’ cannot be denied.
Haha!
That’s hilarious! Good hiding spot. To your mommy: loved Highlight’s, and totally just bought a subscriptions for my kids lol
I still look for them in waiting rooms. 😊
I think this is pretty clever of both you and your mom Sam…. it is rather remarkable how “rug-ged” you look lying there. 🙃. Unfortunately I remember Highlight magazine all too well, meaning yes I am that old. It was the only good thing about going to the dentist when I was a kid. The dentist had many back issues in the waiting room. Cheers!
Bwahaha – ‘Rug-ged’…LOVE that! Ah yes, the ubiquitous dentist’s office supply to divert one’s brain from certain pain and torture. I remember it well despite my own advanced age.
Don’t sleep on that rug naked Sam. 😉
Ha! I definitely plan to keep a bandana on 24/7 😆
aaww my friend. You join the ranks of the best hide and go seek peeps. You are right up there with Bigfoot. Often talked about but never seen. Thank goodness you had your bandana on. <3 XOXO – Bacon
No kidding. A poor unsuspecting mutt could disappear in a flash {poof}
We think your Mom was being very clever when choosing that rug….your fur won’t show, so she won’t have to vacuum as often! 🙂
The arrangement was we won’t shed and hope mom doesn’t vacuum in exchange. Mom’s not keeping up with her end of our bargain. 😕
Well, Sam, now you know what your Mom’s been doing with all your furs that she steals!
😮 Wow, I never thought of that. I’m never letting her groom me again!
Uh, oh, I think I caused some trouble! Please tell your mom I’m sorry.
She’s already trying to butter me up with treats since she ‘thinks’ she’s gonna groom me Monday for our hospital duty. We’ll see about that. 😊
It’s a trade-off, Sam. You’re gonna get groomed anyhow, so you might as well take the treats, right?
That’s exactly what mom said. Are you guys mind-readers?
Lovely post x
Yep – you definitely amused Mom … Because she purchased a carpet that matches you, does carpet elsewhere match your sister? P.S. Many thanks for swinging by again and for the follow. We ❤️ visitors, especially Tango dancers. 😊
She’s black and only blends into one black cushioned dog bed. One minute she’s not there, the next she is. That’s why we nicknamed her the ‘Ninja.’
Sam – you are definitely wise!
So that’s what knucklehead means? I always wondered what that meaned when mom calls me that.
Oh yes … you are right on that one!
Being as ‘blond’ as I am, I thought so and wear it proudly. 😊
Did you take a picture of Sam with you when you bought the carpet asking for a carpet that looks just like this color? LMAO Perfect match!!!
It was just serendipity it turned out that way.
Oh yes, Sam, Be afraid – be very afraid!!
Awk…don’t tell me things like that! But mom loves me so I’m sure she’ll watch out for me. I. hope.
therefore they call that thing car-pets… because it fits to da pets… if it could roll like a car too, the construction would be pawfect!
No doubt Sam’s wheels will be zooming when the vacuum comes out.
