Warning, May Cause Hiccoughs If Taken In Excess

The other night I came up with a clever way to deal with Terry’s sometimes smart mouth. I had him fetch his bottle of habanero sauce and drop 6 drops on his tongue. It worked, but it produced an unexpected side effect. He started to hiccough violently!

It was a bit odd “oh God” (hiccough) “ooh it (hiccough) burns” “Ooh” (hiccough)

My poor goodboy. Each hiccough sucked fumes down his throat and made the pepper sauce burn all the worse. It was horrible, and hilarious. It was all I could do to keep from laughing.

For Terry, of course, it was not funny at all at the time. Now that a little time has passed he’s starting to see the humor in it, though.

And I think he’s going to watch his mouth a little better, too.

Cuss free for almost 2 whole days! I’m so proud!
