Wrestling Match: Bosco vs. Ziggy

Remember Buddy? He was the puppy that kept getting bounced around to different foster and adoptive homes. And now he's back with me - family number four out of five so far. He's seven months old, and his last family had changed his name to Bosco, so since he now answers to that I've decided not to change it. Bosco came back because his family was having trouble getting him housetrained (to make a long story short). It's more complicated than that, but that's the gist of it. So he'll be closely supervised while I see if I can figure out what the problem is, and in the meantime, he's having a blast playing with Ziggy. He gets along great with all the dogs, but he and Ziggy are so much alike in size and play style, that they spend hours doing this:

6:32pm - Bosco initiates the play wrestling match, and Ziggy quickly accepts.

6:33pm - Ziggy bites Bosco's leg, while Bosco goes for Ziggy's neck

6:38pm - Ziggy bites Bosco's neck, while Bosco aims for Ziggy's ear

6:44pm - Ziggy calls for a time out.

6:44pm - Bosco declines the time out.

6:45pm - Ziggy takes down Bosco, then takes a time out anyway.

 6:46pm - "Time In!"

6:49pm - Ziggy goes for the neck, and finds Bosco's ticklish spot.

7:04pm - The wrestling match has moved from the concrete to the overgrown grass.

7:16pm - Ziggy holds down Bosco... "1....2....3..."

7:16pm - But Bosco breaks out of the hold while Ziggy pauses to chew on a tail.

7:34pm - Nothing outlasts the Energizer Bosco and Ziggy

7:51pm - Brief 30 second rest...

7:51pm - And they're back at it.

7:59pm - No official winner is declared, but the match is postponed in favor of a very late dinner.

Here's a short video I took of the wrestling match, just before they slammed into me and knocked me over - for the 8th time that night. Then I gave up and went and hid inside the rest of the night.

Welcome Back, Bosco!  We missed you!
