Even though you guys know I love my poems, the title of this blog post is actually relevant to the content within this post. I wasn’t just feelin’ rhyme-happy, though I wouldn’t put that past me considering my morning blog post title.
Brace yourself for some ass grass!
When we arrived home from work today, Ryan and I leashed up Sadie for an evening at the dog park!
Sadie spent about three minutes sprinting about, sniffing the extra smelly spots in the park (Yay feces!) before she noticed a bright yellow frisbee stuck in a tree just begging to be used in endless rounds of fetch.
Ryan came to her rescue.
We played fetch for a good 45 minutes. Sadie typically fetches sticks or balls, so the frisbee was a new thing for her. She’s so flippin’ fast and had no trouble catching it in the air a handful of times. We were proud puppy parents.
Well, we were proud puppy parents until we noticed it.
Ass grass.
Ass. Grass.
A blade of grass literally sticking out of her ass.
How does that even happen???
I’ll spare you the details, but let’s just say someone plucked the grass from her ass.
Thank goodness our dog park has bathrooms. And they have antibacterial soap. And we keep hand sanitizer in the car. And I couldn’t stop laughing.
Eventually we headed home, ready to get started on dinner. (Don’t worry, more hand washing ensued.)
Dinner
Dinner tonight was easy peasy! Just my style.
Our meal included roasted curried cauliflower and jam-packed quesadillas.
In the ‘dillas:
- Whole wheat tortilla
- Shredded Mexican cheese
- Black beans
- Sautéed onions
- Black bean and roasted corn salsa
I used to make quesadillas all the time when I first graduated from college. I need to make these lil’ babies more often! They’re easy, tasty and a great way to jam a bunch of veggies into dinner.
Time to make some Red Hots applesauce. Tomorrow is FRIDAY!
Jackie @ Baking Charms says
OMG! hahahaha that is ridiculously funny. You need to submit that photo somewhere 🙂
Maryann says
Hahahah oh gosh that is the cutest/funniest thing ever! 🙂 And the quesadillas look AMAZING!
Jessica @ How Sweet says
OH MY GOSH.
Bahahahahahah!
I would NOT have been the one to handle that.
Gabriela @ Une Vie Saine says
HAHAHA this definitely is going in my top five favorite posts EVER category. I love not only that you refer to it as “ass grass,” but that you actually took a picture. That little thing is wedged in there good, isn’t it? I’m glad you were able to charm Ryan into picking it out. No matter how much I love my animals, I’m not sure that I could ever bring myself to put my fingers there…
Amy at TheSceneFromMe says
OMG that is hilarious! That pic of Ryan tugging at the grass, hahaha! He should be proud of those calves of his (as pictured with him digging the frisbee outta the tree)!
I agree with quesadillas. I can eat mine without meat and full of onions and cheese too.
peanutbutterfingers says

Kristy@RunTheLongRoad says

Cara @ Chic Meets Healthy says
hahaha i love that you captured that in a photo! i love quesadillas! they are great for easy lunches too!
Kristen says
Hahahahhahaa the things we do for our dogs!!! I literally just laughed out loud at that picture.
Katie says
Honestly, this happens to my pug way more than I care to mention. She’s never had ass grass, but she will eat a piece of my long hair that has shedded onto the floor. Hours later, I have to pull the hair out of her ass. She always looks embarrassed when it happens: she realizes she’s not going to get all the poop/hair out herself, so she just looks at me and tries to sit on it, like, “Nope, nothing’s wrong here. Please don’t come near my anus!”
Mary says
hahaha oh my gosh the same thing happens to my dog! even her reaction is the same. It might be my least favorite part about having a dog.
erica says
this happens to my dog too! only his reaction is more of a panicked, “get this off of meeeee!!!” and spins around trying to fling it off his butt. haha.
Janna says
I am sitting here DYING laughing at your doggie quote…sooo funny!!
Colleen says
I had that happen to my cat one time, only I didn’t know it was in her booty I thought it was just hanging off of her. I swear she made the noise Scooby Doo makes when I pulled it out! LOLOLOL
Tammy says
My dog gets ass grass quite often, because he eats so much grass on our walkies. I carry a little pack of tissues for ass grass related emergencies!
VeggieGirl says
HAHAHA aww Sadie 😀
Katy (The Singing Runner) says
Hahaha! That reminds me of my cat at home. She likes to eat…well anything and one time she ate a piece of string. My mom and I noticed it hanging out of her butt and we had to pull it out. It wasn’t pleasant.
Nina says
Best post ever! I spit my drink out when I saw the picture, haha.
Amanda says
This is SO funny. It completely made my night. BAHAHA it reminds me of my dog he usually poops out so many different objects.
Blog is the New Black says
Ummm, I can’t stop laughing!!!
Lindz @ Happy or Hungry says
hahaha…I LOVE that you took a picture. It would not have been the same without that picture. So funny. Yeah, definitely a boys job to get that outta there.
Mary says

Christa says
This is hilarious and while we are “going there” ever see Sadie’s poops connected together by blonde strands of hair like a lil train?? Because that’s what happens to Holly and I know somebody out there has to have seen something similiar!! This is intense I know but I HAD to ask!
peanutbutterfingers says
Yes!!!!! It totally creeps me out!
Christa says
Agreed. It always makes me wonder how is she eating so much of my hair?!

Danielle says
Oh man!! The same thing happened to my black lab, except it was that hard, crab-grass, that he must have eaten and obviously didn’t digest, and after he went to the bathroom it didn’t all come out. Thankfully I had some extra plastic bags with me but I had to pull it out – I felt so badly!
Katrina says
Lol – perfect way to get more Sadie on the blog!
Jessica @ Dinners, Desserts, & More... says

Poor Sadie… and the infamous ass-grass-plucker 😛
kelly says

peanutbutterfingers says
Haha yep!
Caroline says
So here is a story I’ve never told but since you brought up ass grass I’m sharing. Several years ago after Easter my cat was walking funny. I started to check his paws and back legs… then… I saw it. He had a piece of Easter grass stuck on his butt. I thought no problem, I’ll just wipe it off. No! It was coming OUT of his butt. I pulled (and pulled) a foot long piece of Easter grass out of his ass. I have no clue how he swallowed and digested that, but the next year our family switched to using paper grass. Lesson learned!
carlee says
OUCH!! ;(
carlee says
WOOPS! supposed to be a yikes type face! haha
Rachelle says
Love the Ass Grass story! My cat ate some floss and was wiping her butt all over the house, total ewww!! My hubby had to pull it out (I was at work). I couldn’t stop laughing!! So gross, now we flush the floss 😉
