#Spiri and #Oppy fell asleep in this very compromising position yesterday. #DogsOfMastodon
My two 25 pound gladiators had an epic fight today. My sweet girl Oppy won, as usual. I think she was afraid she went too far because when Spiri lay down in defeat she went right to his nose and nuzzled him sweetly. :blobfoxcute: #Spiri #Oppy #DogsOfMastodon
It's tough being a short haired dog on a chilly, rainy day. Thank goodness for warm clothes, a big bed and an extra-floofy friend. #DogsOfMastodon #Spiri #Oppy
OK #DogsOfMastodon owners, how do I get my dog to play with toys???
#Spiri only really likes one game: we go outside, I chase him around, and he tries to jump up and nibble on my hand. While he's very good about not actually biting, the combination of gravity and teeth means he still gets me sometimes.
If I replace the hand with a toy -- like a flirt pole, or a rope, or a stuffed animal -- he ignores me.
He also would love to play with #Oppy, but she's basically a potato.
Suggestions?
What kind of dog is this???
#Oppy checks in with me when she's sleepy to make sure she's safe. #DogsOfMastodon

Hi everyone, I'm Mike.
I work in space operations. I am currently the lunar mission planning lead at Blue Origin. Before that I spent 12 years exploring Mars with the Spirit & Opportunity rovers; including being a rover driver and lead flight director.

I occasionally do some writing that may someday turn into a memoir about my time with Spirit & Opportunity.
