A Game with Burrito

March 19, 2019 by Elizabeth

Maybe it’s spring, or maybe it’s just Burrito, but he is a playful, joyful whirlwind today. This morning he found a game of tug of war and checking himself out in the phone camera to be especially hilarious.

    Lol, IMHO, it’s probably just Burrito!

    He likes to see what a fine-looking boy he is!

    Still, I haven’t seen him making you play “tug of war with a view” before……has he done that in the past, and we’ve just never seen it?

      Oh, yes. Modesty is not one of his virtues. 😉

    To see Burrito having a rocking play, tug, silly, laughing session is one the best treats, ever. He is so cute checking himself out in the camera, at one point it appears as if he is checking out his mouth and teeth. I have seen chimps and orangutans do this when looking into a camera, always curious about what’s inside their mouths. And why not?! Burrito is probably wondering where the missing teeth went! : )

    It should be illegal to be as adorable as Burrito, and by adorable I am referring to his personality as much as his looks. I just love this guy.

      There’s one video where Foxie gets to check out parts of herself in a mirror that she normally doesn’t see…….so she took advantage of the mirror!

    What a cutie. Love his interest in checking himself out in the camera. There are full length unbreakable mirrors–maybe you could put one of those in their area since they seem to enjoy seeing themselves.

    I think there are unbreakable full length mirrors. Have you ever investigated that? They seem to enjoy looking at themselves even in that tiny camera screen. Just a thought.

      Hi Elaine. Yes, they do have a mirror in the playroom!
