Here is Dinker looking at you. What has that Dog gotten into now?! For some reason this oddly reminded me of the RCA Victor logo with the dog curiously looking at a phonograph player, a Victrolla in fact. If you care to look it up in Wikipedia, as I did to get the photo, the dog's name was Nipper.
So here is Dinker with this stupid inverted cone on his shoulders. It's not a dunce cap, whose origins I did not look up, but a device to keep the dog from chewing on his hind quarters. Why is he doing that? Not fleas but likely dry skin. I'll spare you the photo of his hind quarter but suffice it to say it is not pretty. He also has two other raw spots in their early stages. Hence, this convoluted hat for the shoulders which is a must accessory for the dog who wants to appear cool while diverting attention from his mangy butt.
The poor dog looks like he went through one of those transporter devices with a beach bucket in tow and something terrible happened. Maybe we can get the device that was used in the Fly. Hmm, Vincent Price version or the modern Jeff Goldblum.
Why don't you send us a suggestion as to how we may change him back into his old self. He has had this contraption on for 8 days now which at first was comical but is now rather annoying to everyone. The dog naturally moves his head from side to side as he sniffs the air but apparently is beyond properly gaging how much additional head room he needs. The hollow but hard clunking sound is constant as he moves under the table or otherwise squeezes through other tight spots. Life is now a constant snag as we nag him not to scratch himself. He gets his revenge in his doggie way by leaving a few aromatic browines in the back room. Loverly!
