Likes: I love my cow, belly rubs and ear scratches!! I also like to do what my Aunt Lesley calls "stroller patrol" cause little kids always have something sticky and tastey on their little hands and faces!! Yummy!
Pet-Peeves: Don't mess with me when I'm napping! I hate going potty when the grass is dewey or when it's raining out. I don't think that momma realizes I'm made of sugar and might melt. Don't even think about giving me a bath!!
Favorite Toy: My Monster!! I also like to play the hand game with momma!! I love to wrestle with my fur friend Zeke, he has a crush on me and likes to lick my ears, ALOT!!
Favorite Food: anything and everything, one time I got in the fridge and cleaned it out!! I even ate a whole tub of butter. It was yummy, but boy did my tummy hurt!!
Favorite Walk: The park at the lake front, lots of things to sniff and doggies to meet and people to get butt scratches from!!
Best Tricks: Napping, talking, roll over!! Opening the refrigerator!
Arrival Story: Momma had a Lab/Great Dane mix as a young adult. He was the world to her and when he went to the bridge she was devastated. A few years later, my Aunt Mira and her were talking on the phone and Aunt Mira asked if Momma was ready to get another dog. She told her that she'd been thinking about it. Then Aunt Mira asked Momma what kind of dog she was thinking of getting and she told her a Basset Hound. That was the end of the conversation, or so Momma thought. Then Aunt Mira did something sneaky, she made a few phone calls and found me. I was in doggy jail, but she came and bailed me out. Aunt Mira called Momma and told her to "Come get this damn dog or I'm gonna wind up keeping her for myself!" Momma had to go to work, but she made her boyfriend drive all the way up there to get me. I was a super good girl all the way back cause I knew that my new Momma was gonna give me a forever home. When I finally got home, my Momma's B/F took me up to see my new Momma at work. She took one look at me and thought "Wow, what an ugly dog!" But I turned on the charm, gave her some sloppy kisses, nuzzled my cold wet nose in her ear and gave her the patented "sad basset" look and in about 30 seconds or so she was all mine!! I love my Aunt Mira for rescueing me from doggy jail but I love Momma the mostest!! And she loves me, even when I'm bad...

I've Been On Dogster Since:
I had such a fun weekend!! My Aunt Lesley crashed at my place for the weekend, I even let her sleep on my couch with me. Saturday we just hung out and watched some movies. Her & Momma had ice cream and of course I got to lick out the containers. I try real hard to be patient because when I see those Ben & Jerry's ice cream containers I know that I'm gonna get to lick them clean. Momma says that I do such a good job that we could send them back to B&J's to use again. Momma got a new camera so check out the pics! That's my Aunt Lesley and me on the couch, I was getting belly rubs !! Yeah for Aunt Lesley!!
Sunday was even more exciting, but momma kicked herself in the butt cause she forgot the new camera and we could have had some cool shots. Anyway, we went to visit a friend of ours who has a few acres out in the country. I got to meet a horse and a pony. At first I was a little nervouse cause they were ssssooo big. But then we gave each other sniffies and it was cool. They let me in their big play pen and I hung out with them for awhile.
Then my day got real busy. There were some other people there and they had their 2 beagle doggies. They were both older than me, so that's like real old, but we played and sniffed around a bit. Then the kiddies came out 2 play. Two little boys (5&7) and right after they came out, the food came out!! Oh my Dog. I got all kinds of goodies; hot dogs, crackers w/cheese, strawberries, chips, chicken (no bones momma said)!!
It was nice to be out in the country, smelling all the smells and chasing butterflies. I was so exhausted when we finally got home that I didn't even eat dinner, not that there was room for it. Well, I'm gonna go for now, I hope that all you city hounds get to take a trip to the country like I did, it's so much fun!!
Oh boy am I a tired pooch. Momma and I went on a road trip to Aunt Lesley's house!! I love my Aunt Lesley, she's my favorite person in the whole world except for my momma, and my Aunt Mira!
At first I thought momma was gonna go by herself. I know that when she starts packing stuff like her toothbrush that I might have to go and stay at Aunt Mira's house for a day or two. Aunt Mira is momma's sister and I like going over there cause I get to play with my furfriends Zeke and Mopsey. But, I really miss momma and I cry ALOT and wait anxiously by the door for her to come back and get me.
So, imagine my excitement when momma picked up my food and water bowl, bagged up some kibble and cookies and threw them all in her bag of stuff!! Whoopeee, we're going on a road trip! Who were we going to visit? Gramma and Gramps? Auntie Pam or Aunt Lesley......Hhhmmmmm? It doesn't matter really, I get to go on a roadtrip!!
We got loaded up in the super basset mobile (momma's van) and off we went. Momma had the windows down because it was a beautiful day and I sniffed the wind the whole way there!! Eventually we wound up at Aunt Lesley's house I was super excited to see her. We went for a walk right away and I went and did all my business then we went inside and as soon as momma and Lesley weren't looking, I marked my spot!!
Momma was sssoooo mad at me, and emberassed to cause I don't usually P on the floor. But I had to make sure that everybody who comes there knows that that is MY house and MY Aunt Lesley. I blew my chances of a doggie bag from dinner for sure. But later that night I got to snuggle on the couch and got lots of belly rubs. No one can stay mad at me for long, I'm just to damn cute!!
The next day I went for a walk/run with Aunt Lesley. We saw a bunch of little 2-leggers, they gave me lots of pets and cuddles and I licked them clean of all their sticky goodness. When we got back, the girls went to see a movie and I got to take a nap on the couch. Eventuially they came home and momma packed up our stuff and we drove home!!
I love road trips, but I'm tired so I'm gonna go take another nap now. See ya Aaaarrroooooooo!!!
Well I had super fun today, but momma is sooo mad at me!!
She knew as soon as she got home that I had been bad, she has like Spidey Sense when it comes to that sort of thing. She just KNOWS!! Want to know what I did? Huhn? Huhn? Do ya do ya?? BOL!! I got in the kitchen garbage!!
Whooppee!! Man oh man did I have fun. Momma had just cleaned out the fridge of "leftovers" so there were all kinds of goodies in there. I tried to be good but with my super sniffer nose I could smell it all day, just enticing me until I couldn't stand it any longer! I did what I had to do to maintain my sanity!
There was some old roast beef in there and some cherry jello! Oh and a chicken carcass that was pretty picked clean of meat but the bones were yummy! Then I found some taco bell stuff that wasn't finished. All in all it was a pretty good haul, of course momma didn't feed me my dinner, that kind of made me mad, I mean, really, just because I stuffed myself to the gills with garbage doesn't mean that I can't find just a little bit more room for dinner. I am a Basset after all and we ALWAYS have room for more food!!
Well, I'm gonna go for now, I'm being "punished", momma is giving me the cold shoulder, no belly rubs or snuggles, she won't even let me up on the bed!! What's up with that, doesn't she realize that I have a BAD tummy ache and need some lovies?
p.s. Momma said that she is worried about me eating all those chicken bones, and that bassets are prone to torsion (tummy twisting) so she is keeping a close eye on me even though she is mad at me!!
