No this is not about Sergio Leone Western masterpiece. This is about my psycho, just over one year old, Shitzu.
I had just painted up three NASA astronauts, three Russian astronauts, and was in my hobby room laser focused on building a lunar vehicle when I heard my little lad chomping away in corner. I was so focused I thought he was chewing one of his toys. Then he disappeared and soon after my Wife walked into my hobby room and handed me what you see in this picture. Somehow my foam tray of painted astronauts ended up on the floor upside down in the corner. Fortunetatly the way I pack them only one fell out. Of course he found it and decided it was an excellent chew toy. The head, arms, moon rock, and most of upper torso are gone.
After having lost three other non painted models to the BAD, I thought I had learned my lesson and had model security under control. NOPE!
Though I swore a few times, no animals were hurt while going through this episode.
But mannnnn, it’s sooooo hard loving this cute faced dog sometimes.
As always thanks for looking.
Cheers

Heartbreaking......
ReplyDeletePerhaps you can recycle it as a casualty?
That’s a good idea

I’m thinking a trip with them to Springfield OH. I’m kidding of course. Could have certainly been worse.
ReplyDeleteFor sure, I am lucky none of the others spilled out.

Oh my, the poor figure got mauled. Thankfully, he was ingested by the little dude. So cute, you just can't stay mad at them long.
ReplyDelete"wasn't" ingested, that is. :)
DeleteSo true Dean, we are buddies again.

Oh the horror! Sorry for your loss.
ReplyDeleteMy dog would not be safe from retribution!!!!!!!!!!!! You are a better man than I.
In the old days there were consequences for a dog... when it ate a "LEAD" casting!!!!!!
Haha, indeed, I remember those days. When you could get lead poisoning just from handling the figures. Ah the good ole days.
