Batman vs. the Watermelon


Some superheroes battle villains.

Others fight injustice.

Batman protects the world from dangerous watermelons.

Whatever would we do without him?

The watermelon was sitting on the kitchen counter when Batman came in and suddenly began barking like crazy. He was absolutely beside himself and just would not stop, so I put the watermelon down on the floor to show him it wasn’t a threat.

Batman obviously disagreed with me, as he proceeded to suspiciously prod the fruit with his nose, growling and barking for a good five minutes before finally giving up. Then he fell asleep.

    Oh my gosh, that’s too cute! It can be exhausting protecting the family from evil fruit. 🙂

  4. Alice says:

    Did Batman join the people who say fruit is not good for you because of the sugar? O.O Nah, I don’t think so, he’s way too cute for that.
    I bet you are very proud of him for being such a brave little protector-dog 😉

    That is so funny! My dog does the same thing with our vacuum. What kind of dog is Batman? He is so cute! And I love that name. Thank you for all the great recipes – looking forward to your cookbook.

      He’s a rescued Chihuahua mix… I am convinced there’s a big dog somewhere inside of him, though ;).

    This made me laugh and reminded me of when my dog was a puppy. She once did the same thing with a pumpkin! Dogs are sure hilarious.

    Aw! So cute! I wonder what else he’s mixed with, very unique looking!
    I’ve noticed something…your website home page always shows up with a normal ad at the top, then you have to scroll down for a good while to see your logo/title, “Chocolate-Covered Katie The Healthy Dessert Blog”. I’m using Firefox on a pretty modern PC. Just wanted to let you know in case it’s not meant to be like that! x

      Hey Carla,
      Thanks for letting me know. Could you possibly send a screen shot? Email address is chocolatecoveredkatie at msn. If you don’t get a chance, no worries… but I’m curious to know what it looks like for you since I’ve never heard of anyone having that issue before and want to know about any problems that might exist.

        The same thing was happening to me when I was looking at your site on my moms computer earlier today. I am currently on my iPhone which is what I usually use and I don’t have a problem on here.

        1. Chocolate Covered Katie says:

          If anyone could send a screen shot, I would appreciate it so much. Sorry for the trouble 😕

  14. Ellen says:

    Clearly it must be exhausting being such a valiant pup.

  15. Emilia says:

    May I ask how old are you?(:

    Haha I got a dog about 3 weeks ago and he did the same basic thing to a pizza. But I think that was because he wanted the pepperoni…
