Chase the slimer

Since we moved to this new place a month ago, every evening’s routine with Chase is the same. He will wait for me to come back from my walk with the two older ones. Once I get home, he will start whining up a storm to get out….out to the driveway for his Frisbee. I have to say, all these fetching for 15 – 20 minutes every day does help keep him slim. He lost 15 pounds and is now a trim 87 pound-er. The vet gave a thumbs up on his new weight. The below picture was taken last week. Notice his nice waistline which I don’t even have one myself!

The thing about him fetching is he is a very slimy, drooly dog when he starts fetching. After a few throws of the frisbee, there will slime all over the frisbee which is super gross plus around his mouth. It looks frothy and he will be panting as if someone is in need of an inogen oxygen concentratorto help them breathe. Another 10 more minutes, he really is super gross with drool and slime even on his legs and head. This is because when i throw the slime/drool filled Frisbee, the gross stuff will fly too, which will land on him. Utterly disgusting. 

The pic below you can see the frothy lips and the slime on the Frisbee (his beloved Frisbee) and some under his right eye.  I have to carry couple paper towels with me when I throw his Frisbee.  He has been a very drooly  dog all along but now that he is bigger, man, it’s worse.
