Tonight Gabe googled "Why is my dog licking his butt", and thanks to the internet we have diagnosed he probably needs his anal glands expressed.
At this point, I say -- "To the Petsmart, he needs a pedi anyway."
Gabe heads to Youtube.
And that's when I knew the internet had gone too far.
Tutorials on how to express your dogs anal glands. I am not shocked that this exists, just that we live in a modern world where it is possible to have such information in 15 seconds.
Gabe starts to watch, I hover over his shoulder.
"You're going to want to look away."
"Why?"
"It squirts apparently."
-- I can't not look, besides this lady looks like a respectable lady, she has a paper towel, I can guess what's going to happen. I can take it.
The procedure is done. That didn't look too hard.
Then she shows the contents of the paper towel, and I dry heave.
"I TOLD YOU TO LOOK AWAY"
I get the giggles, and turn away. I compose myself and look back over his shoulder and she is going back for round two.
I heave again.
"FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, GET OUT OF HERE!"
I walk out laughing and heaving at the same time, my eyes watering from giggles and vomit reactions, the whole time Kotter wanders between the both of us with a look to say, "Hey guys...guys? What are you guys doing?"
Gabe starts up another video, because this is the internet and there is more than one.
He says, "I think I can do this, it doesn't look that hard."
He turns his monitor away from me and says, "Don't look."
Then he heaves and coughs a little and says. "We're going to Petsmart buddy."

Worth every pus-free penny.
Beautiful memories being made every day!
And perhaps you may actually have an ass-drag free week or two. Will it make you dry heave a little more to mention my sister used to do this to her own dogs? (It makes me queasy)
Darnit! I was hoping that Gabe would get good at this. Molly has been dragging her bootay lately. Maybe we can all just do a group trip to PetSmart!
