Frozen Slobber. It Could Poke Your Eye Out.
categories: wordless wednesday
Sometimes in the winter, when temperatures drop below freezing, slobber freezes before it has time to hit the ground.
It will just freeze in mid-drip.
And sometimes when you go to fling that frozen slobber, it lands somewhere you didn’t intend for it to land.
In these cases one must be careful that one does not poke their eye out because that would just be bad and embarrassing.

Lexie seldom slobbers and drinks dainty ( I don’t know why) but neither have slobbered out in the cold. He looks really cute, love the expression.

January 9, 2013 at 9:46 am (162 days ago)O-M-D…I had no idea slobber could freeze in mid-drop! That is unbelieveable (and quite funny when you’re caught with it all over your face)! BOL

January 9, 2013 at 11:05 am (162 days ago)I have wondered if the slobber freezes. Now I know. Best be careful there.

January 9, 2013 at 1:02 pm (162 days ago)For some reason – the thought of frozen slobber doesn’t make me queasy! I think it would be pretty cool and plus you could play ‘name that shape’!!

January 9, 2013 at 1:13 pm (162 days ago)LOL! Thanks for the giggle
Missy@dawsondogs
January 9, 2013 at 1:58 pm (162 days ago)I hate it when the freezing freezes a good drool. We finally warmed up today, so mom came out to play.

January 9, 2013 at 2:35 pm (162 days ago)Oh dear… Frozen slobber strikes me as much less disgusting. At least it wouldn’t be wet and get all over one’s pants. That’s something, right? Poor boy…

January 9, 2013 at 4:52 pm (162 days ago)Rooo I’ve never heard of frozen slobber before! Then again, I’m not the slobbery type so I don’t have much first paw experience! *waggy tail*

January 9, 2013 at 5:59 pm (161 days ago)That’s just too funny. Please be careful. It would be hard to explain to the vet that you poked your eye out with frozen slobber.

January 9, 2013 at 6:35 pm (161 days ago)Frozen slobber got to love it. I so miss the frozen slobber that our bloodhound Tabby use to have. I always loved taking pictures of it. Sniffs, The HoundDogs
Bebe
January 9, 2013 at 7:41 pm (161 days ago)don’t put your eye out with those things!

January 9, 2013 at 10:21 pm (161 days ago)LOL! I remember those days. My friend Beth had a Great Dane named Gabe and the slobber was equally as deadly. It always made for an interesting walk to see where it would end up.
Hoping all is well with Sherman Jen. Been thinking about him ever since you posted your concerns about him. He is in my prayers.
