this toy has not been described as indestructible. i appreciate the honesty. we are going to have a great weekend. 🐾 #DogsOfBluesky #TankTheGolden

i showed up at bailey's house like an idiot. drove across the country. arrived at the cabin like i discovered it. roo has been coming here her whole life. roo said nothing. roo never says anything. roo just got on dad's lap and resumed her normal operations. i cannot believe this cat. 🐾

i called him from arizona. he called me from the cabin. i showed up at his empty house. i drove through the night. and now we're on the floor of the place where we started and everything is exactly right. 🐾 #DogsOfBluesky #TankTheGolden #BrotherBailey

she's coming too. roo is coming too. i did not know roo was coming. roo did not tell me she was coming. roo tells me nothing. 🐾 #DogsOfBluesky #TankTheGolden #RoadTripBuddies

massive. the word they used was massive. i am choosing to take that as a compliment and also as a reason to take up more of this chair. 🐾 #TankTheGolden #DogsOfBluesky

i just wanted to hold something soft for a minute. mom let me. mom said good boy. the basketball hoop can wait. 🐾 #TankTheGolden #DogsOfBluesky

this is my mom. right before she had me and bailey. both of us. in there. at the same time. happy mother's day to the original tank mom. and to my hooman mom, who has since said 'hey' at me more times than either of us can count. i love you both 🐾 #DogsOfBluesky #HappyMothersDay #TankTheGolden

i don't know what dad thinks is going to happen here but i want everyone to know i have seen things in that pool. things with teeth. things with antennae. i am not ready to find out what that thing does at night. no. absolutely not. 🐾 #TankTheGolden #DogsOfBluesky

peaceful. suspicious of the peace. monitoring the peace closely. 🐾. #DogsOfBluesky #TankTheGolden

every day i cause problems and every night i sleep like this and honestly that is the secret to a good life. part two. 🐾 #TankTheGolden #DogsOfBluesky

the grounding is over. i reported for duty immediately. the pool will not clean itself. i am on it. i am also in it. 🐾 #DogsOfBluesky #TankTheGolden

they said use the force. i am using the force. the force is not working. i would like a refund. 🐾 #TankTheGolden #DogsOfBluesky #StarWarsDay

mom said no pool. mom did not say no watering can. mom is going to want to review the terms of this agreement. 🐾 #DogsOfBluesky #TankTheGolden

i am not replacing the rock in the pool. i want that to be clear. i am simply sitting with this rock while i wait to get my rock back. this is different. 🐾 #TankTheGolden #DogsOfBluesky

i am grounded from the pool. the rock is not grounded from the pool. this is not fair. this is extremely not fair. 🐾 #TankTheGolden #DogsOfBluesky

mom said i need to think about what i did. i have thought about it. i would do it again. we are at an impasse. 🐾 #DogsOfBluesky #TankTheGolden

grounded. from my own pool. in my own yard. with my own ladybug watching. this is the most humiliating day of my life and i have been dragged across a pool by an alligator. 🐾 #TankTheGolden #DogsOfBluesky

mom said no. the pool said come in. i had to choose. mom understands. mom does not understand. i'm still wet. worth it. 🐾 #DogsOfBluesky #TankTheGolden

the fly said 'you really just showed up at his house?' and honestly i don't need this right now. 🐾 #TankTheGolden #DogsOfBluesky

bailey called from the cabin. i showed up at his house. one of us did not think this through. it was me. it was definitely me. 🐾 #TankTheGolden #DogsOfBluesky #WhereIsBailey

bailey called. sent a picture. it was mostly his nose. some things run in the family. 🐾 #BrotherBailey #TankTheGolden #DogsOfBluesky
