CH Hijinks

“You guys are fun,” I announce to Mike, Nando, Ashley and Shamir, as they all paraded into one of the storerooms in good humor to corner Thor and put much needed medicine on his ear. Mike went in first and called for back up, so then the rest of them start to pile into the small room; one or two of them actually got in before Thor tried to make a break for it. “Shut the door, shut the damn door!” someone yells.

They catch Thor’s head in the door, and he’s hollering and there’s commotion everywhere, and out of nowhere, the can of medicine comes flying over the door, and one of the guys NOT in the storeroom with the thrashing back half of Thor grabs the can and starts spraying his ear with copious amounts of purple, foul-smelling stuff.

It’s over and Thor runs out - out of the storeroom, out of the building, out of the compound. “Did you mean to do that?” I ask Mike. “We meant to use one of the head snares we use on the caiman, but that worked, too.” He said. “Masterful,” I declare.

Please tell me that Thor's ear is 7 inches long and covered by fur.

Yes, you guessed it; Thor's a black canine. And for an update.... it's looking like he's going to have to be put down. There's worms in his ear and they may have entered his head... terrible. Poor, poor dog.
