Quick Bio:
Likes:
These days, I think I enjoy sleeping more than anything else. Barking/yodeling comes in a close second. Then, getting petted.
Pet-Peeves:
I hate it when the my brothers and sisters come around me when I'm trying to sleep. Do they not understand the concept of personal space?!?
Favorite Toy:
When I was younger, I enjoyed a good rope toy as much as the next guy. I don't play so much now.
Favorite Food:
I think I'd have to say my favorite thing to eat is the semi-moist food my mom mixes in with my senior dog chow. She says I'm old and I deserve the good stuff.
Favorite Walk:
I like to go anywhere and everywhere!
Best Tricks:
I sit when I'm told, but that's about the only order I acknowledge from Mom.
Arrival Story:
When I was 5 weeks old I almost died! Me and my two sisters were an unplanned litter from some guy who didn't get his dogs fixed. He was gonna take us to the river and drown us! Can you believe that?!? The nerve! Taking it out on us just cause he's stupid?!?! But my mom and her family took us in and found good homes for my two sisters (one of them lived right down the street from me!), and kept me.
Bio:
Mom says I have some weird personality quirks that she blames on me being taken away from my mother too soon. She says I never really learned to play like a real puppy, either, cause the other beagle they had when they adopted me wouldn't play with me. But that's ok, I don't mind. I was my mom's first puppy, and boy did I cause trouble whenever I could! But that didn't dissuade her, and now I have lots of brothers and sisters.
These days it seems I'm just falling apart! Mom took me to the vet a few years ago when I started having some trouble with my back legs. I got an x-ray, and the doc said my discs are rubbing together! I don't know what that means, but I noticed that my back legs just don't work as well as they used to. Mom says I'm a little front-heavy, so I gotta balance real good when I'm leaning forward to eat or drink, or I'll tip over! My bladder ain't what it used to be, either! But I finally got Mom to realize that I have to go outside every couple of hours, and that if I have an accident it's really her fault! Pretty sweet, huh? (I can get away with stuff that actually is my fault sometimes, too. Mom says, "You're lucky you're so damn cute.") Not too long ago, Mom noticed that my selective hearing wasn't so selective anymore. She could be just a few yards behind me calling my name and I couldn't hear her! When Mom knocked on the window once to get my attention, I could hear it real well. I decided that she should use that to call me inside. So now whenever I'm out in the yard and I hear the raps on the window, I know to look up there to see if she's waving me inside. I wag my tail a bunch to let her know I saw her and then come running inside. I devised a pretty good system, huh?

I learned today (about 2 weeks after my adopted sister Athena crossed the Rainbow Bridge) that my actual blood-relation sister, Minnie, has also passed away. She was diagnosed with cancer. Although she was adopted by friends of the family, I haven't seen Minnnie in a very long time. Even so, we all feel her loss. Our hearts go out to the family she left behind, and we wish Minnie the smoothest of travels across the Rainbow Bridge.
