Stella leaves her mark


You might ask yourself when you notice that you are welcomed to our blog with a picture of dog poo, "What kind of blog are you running here, Sigs?" Well, there is a story behind this picture, and it is hilarious. First of all, the puppy pie in question belongs to our dog Stella. If you have met Stella, you know she likes to chew on things....a lot. She is particularly skilled at tearing toys apart. Luckily, she has never destroyed any of our furniture or personal things, but that is because we always keep a fresh supply of toys for her. Her two favorite things are rubber bones and tennis balls. 

With that in mind, we were taking Stella for a walk this morning around our apartment complex and we stopped outside our building to play a little catch. While we were playing Joe noticed what looked like a diseased doo-doo with blue and green mold all over it. Joe commented to Jocelyn, "What do you think that dog was eating that made its poop grow blue and green mold?" We both stooped down to take a closer look at the doggy deuce. We now invite you, the humble reader of The Notorious SIG to take a closer look. Go ahead, click on it. The mold you see is not mold at all: it is tennis ball fuzz and bits of blue rubber bone. We both look at each other, and then glance over at Stella who was sitting down and looking at us as. We couldn't stop laughing.
