Mom is letting me on...

'Round here you have to wait, wait for mom, Mell, Sisi, Uno, Spunky, Teenboy, and even the kitten-Tiny. Wait wait wait. My turn always seems to be last. Mom has been letting me hang out in the washroom with Si during the day, and on a leash at night, in the living room with the family. We finished the Beggin Strips today, I'm sure Mell will tell dad (mom doesn't think we need 'em-they make Mellow mean-he just goes crazy!) I sleep outside at night-I would rather be outside, all alone than in that bathroom! I don't care if SiSi is in the bathroom with me, its still not fair. But, Mell says, life's not fair. Sigh, he also says if I would hold it, and only pee outside I could have run of the house like he and Si do. My pride or freedom and privileges? Sigh, I'll think about it-probably when I'm outside tonight-all alone. Sigh-is this getting better? I can't tell.
I'm bummed-Reba the Blue

Mom is actually LETTING me journal!

Still housebreaking:(, still on a leash:(, but I at least I can post-shes watching so I can say too much-same old same old same old thing! Day in day out-my life stinks! Isn't a basset supposed to be happy? How can I be happy if I'm not free???? Last night I made a break for it, but dad got a hold of the choke chain, and led me back:( (he says next time he won't take that leash off til we get to the back door-Bigsigh-
Poormepoormepoormepoormepoorme-
Reba singing the bluuuuuues:(

HELP!!!

I've only got a minute, mom's outside and I'm sure she's coming right back-I showed mom and dad my new moves-I scaled the baby gate! You should have seen me-like a deer-total grace! Mom fussed at me, put me back, and blocked my path, and left-boooooohhhoooooowwwwooooooiiiiiisssssssmmmmmmeeeeeee!!! ! Some one call the doggy police! This is torture! It has to be against the law-uto here she comes-more later-I hope...

I've got only a minute...

computers on, I'm inside, and no one is looking, still being tortured with this cratetraining stuff, still not allowed to run loose in the house-not even in the washroom, call 1-800-HELPReba, its my private line, hurry time is running out, oh no, here they come...

HELP!!!

These people are crazy!!! I'm not being Greattrained-I'm being CRATE trained! Locked in a cage! Everyone thinks its funny-Mell really rubs it in. The people say the internet is acting up-so I dont know how long I have...email me, I'll give you directions and the gate code (they think I don't know it), come in the back door and you'll find me in the big bedroom in a cage, bring some beggin strips to bribe Mell, hurry, my time is running out, I hear them coming...

GREAT TRAINING!

Last night I came in and peed, today I came in and peed. For some reason mom is not pleased. Isn't that what you are supposed to do-come in run around, stop and pee, run around, play, nap? Mom says I'm NOT housebroke, no, I never broke the house-who would do that? Well anyway, I heard mom tell grandma on the phone, that she is going to great train me! I AM GREAT!!! Maybe she plans on showing me how to be Greater!!!! I'm excited! We are starting right now-gotta go-more about my greatness later! I'm gonna be better than Mellow! Reba the Greatest!

Mell says I do nothin but whine...

What do you think? Last night I came in with a new avoid-the-bathroom-lockup-plan, but dad had the baby gate up and stopped me from going to the living room (where my greatest plans take place:)! Quickly he and Mell and SiSi went on into the bedroom and LOCKED ME OUT!!! Mom was up with the grandboy, so he and I cried and cried! Funny I get ignored when I cry, he gets special attention! When he finally stopped, mom stepped over the gate (wish my legs were longer and I could do that), passed right by me, and opened the bedroom door, ZOOM!, I was in that room like a flash! Who knew bassets could move so fast! But I didn't get far. Back outside! Boohoo! Atleast Melly decided to come out with me. Back to the drawing board. Reba the mistreated (NOT Reba the Whiner!)

KITTEN!!

Mell and I came in last night and there was a new kitten! Well before I knew it, it was in my mouth! Honest, I don't know how it happened! One minute I'm running around doing my happy dance, next there's a kitten in your mouth! Mom and dad wouldn't have known either, except mom picked up the kitten and saw its neck was all sloppy and wet. (They don't call me Slobers for nothin:) So, back outside I went! In the coooolllllddddd wwwwweeeeettttt rrraaaaiiiinnnn. Our doghouse was dry, but empty with no Mell. Staying outside by myself STINKS!!! And I'm tired of doing it! So tonight no tricks, no sneaking, no kitten nibbling-well, no getting caught;) later-Reba
