For instance, about three or four years ago, my friend and I noticed that chunks of Cosmo's hair were falling out like crazy. So for some reason, she suggested that we stuff a jar full of his hair. We both stupidly agreed it was a great idea, and so we did it. I'm not even really sure why! But it was sitting in the depths of my closet up until August when I was moving. So weird!
Also, about the same time, with a friend, I painted Cosmo's toenails! Yes, I understand that Cosmo is a boy. We painted each paw a different neon color- it was quite hilarious! We gave him treats periodically so that he would sit still for us, and then we used a blow dryer to dry his nails quicker. The polish didn't quite come off for about six months- and then I repeated the process with another friend. After that, my parents band painting his nails . . .

This might make me sound like even more of a crazy dog lady, but sometimes I play hide and seek with Cosmo when we're home alone. It was easier with my old house because it was bigger and more open, making it easier for Cosmo to move around the house. I would sit him down and have him "stay", then quickly tip toe to my hiding place. I would then lightly call Cosmo's name so that he could hear me, but not know where I was. He would come running around the house searching for me. It was pretty funny when he found me and got all excited!
There are plenty of other crazy memories I have with Cosmo, but these ones are, I guess, the weirdest ones. They most definitely stand out!
Side note: I was getting Cosmo a treat on Sunday, and my dad encouraged me to eat one of them. So I did. But no need to worry, it wasn't bad and contains all natural, "human-food" ingredients. They're actually really great for your furry animals!
