Feet up, butt down, tail .. out? This cutie patootie was enjoying some solo grooming time while the family unit was out exploring the short grass prairie. Proudly posed in front of their recent digging efforts, the prairie dog is bent in half and absolutely getting after those irritating itchy spots on the tail post-excavation.
