Couch Potato
In the Big Blogathon to help 2 Million Dogs one of our Trivia Questions was "what is a couch potato and what does it look like"
I got so many wonderful answers that I decided that I would share my new-found information with everyone in the event there are those out there who do not know what a true Couch Potato looks like. So get ready for some education !

This is one of my all time favorites from Cindy E. who tells us:
Here are our couch potatoes, Kassi and Laney. Kassi considers herself the best in this form of expression....she is the one with all 4's in the air. And if you have any doubts...she is also watching the TV. Her sister, Laney is a bit more dignified as you can see.
Next from Jennifer V. ---- here is Ursa:


This is what Jennifer has to say:
This is what a couch potato looks like - if you notice in one of these pictures Ursa is in a chair...that is the precursor to being a true couch potato, you gotta grow into it!
Now here a couple of great pics from Todd ---- oh boy, these guys are really into it, aren't they?


This is what Todd has to say:
Got to go with the definition I found on line, but "tweak" it a bit. : A person and/or dog who spends much time sitting or lying down, just hanging out. Beginners start on couches. Once they have mastered the art of couch potato on this surface, more advanced move on to "moving" couches, aka recliners.
Here are a couple of pics of my "spuds" as examples
I really liked this entry!
| 1. | couch potato - an idler who spends much time on a couch (usually watching television) |
Here are the examples:



One of our Pet-Sitters, Sandee S. submitted this fine picture of "Mindy"

From Mike K, comes this photo of Mickey. And actually I picked this photo as the winner, winner, winner because Mickey must take the couch very seriously, because he has brought along his bunny to keep him company and anyone who loves a bunny this much and takes such good care of it, deserves a prize:

And this ---- just in from our Sitter, Phoebe (who is also the Chief Ball Girl for My Squeaky Ball ----- this is her potato, Jean Luc, who was supposed to be watching the Super Bowl, but obviously got bored:

And --- you must see my Sister, Lily, who has really perfected the art of the Potato:
and sometimes shares with her little sis, WillowBee
And so my friends....... now you know what to look for when searching your home for couch potatoes...... if you have some pictures that you would like to share, please send them to me and I will continue to post.
Maybe we should have a "who does it best contest?" What do you think.
Oh and --- By The Way: In case you want to know what I look like when I am on the couch ---- here I am!

Why yes, I am beautiful, aren't I ?????
