Tell me the funny things your dog(s) does please! Flash is crazy at times. The other day my 4 year old brought home a helium filled balloon from preschool. It had been in the house all afternoon. While we were eating supper, Flash went wild, barking, fur standing up, etc. He was freaking out over the balloon lmao.

Then last night, same type of situation. my son had been wearing a fishing hat and I had taken it off of him for bedtime and tossed it onto the handle of the vacuum cleaner. Flash was fine and dandy, playing for quite awhile and then he went ballistic over the hat being on the vac! It was funny.

So, any weird things scare or catch your dogs off guard lately? I just find it funny that the strangest things make him go crazy. Although the other morning, i didn't have any lights on in the living room. He kept looking up at my ceiling and then hiding under my computer chair (where I was sitting). Something seemed to bother him and I never did figure it out. Maybe he saw my ghosties!!! lol

Where do I start, every day is an adventure with Ms Ecalir.......Cold season has just hit us in the Midwest, so the Kleenex boxes have once again hit the cocktail table. Went out for supper for a couple hours Saturday, only to arrive home to a huge pile of tissues sprewn throughout the family room and the box in bite sized pieces!

Last week she decided to raid the veggie plot and came barreling through the patio door with a huge brussels sprout stalk-how she got it out the dirt I still do not know!

or the week before, I found a pink rubber like substance on her lips and ear lobes....after frantically sarching the house, I found grandmas false teeth on the bedroom floor and a chewed up teeth holder and tube of denture fixative on the spare bed! Thank goodness she left the teeth in one piece!

Bowser has been reasonably well behaved recently...he must be saving up for something big!!!
There are tons of crazy things he's done in the past. hmm

Simone decides she wants her nightly walk even though it is 43 degrees and raining. She then tries to hide under every tree and bush to get out of the rain! I left a towel by the front door to dry her off. She managed to get away from me while I was drying her and took off running with her retractable leash still attached. She thought it was chasing her and kept running faster to get away from it!! The great thing about a basset is that they make you belly laugh every day .

Henry has spent the last hour throwing my oven gloves around the lounge. When you go to pick them up he takes them and lays on them and loks at you like you are insane for touching them!

Ollie like to take his "animal skins" the unstuffed toy squirrel and rabbit in his mouth and make laps through the kitchen-dinning room-den to make sure they "Don't move anymore." He also has gained the ability to get onto the couch and recliner, turn his ears into the wind and he tries to jump from one to the other. Also just randomly noticing he has a tail and chasing it.

Oh jeez PB does everything mentioned here... Pop up kleenexes are an invitation to grab another & run, retractable leash chases her often, hides under bushes in the rain (& shakes knocking all the water off the leaves causing her to shake again & give me the look of absolute disgust), deathly afraid of balloons, plus we have to cross the street to evade the CEMENT LION statues guarding neighbors gated driveway!!

Barney has the "puppy crazies" every night where everything he does is beyond silly. They used to start a 6pm...then went to 5pm and now at 4pm. Can't help but wonder if it has to do with the sun setting earlier. The sad part is that the older he gets the shorter time they last. I will miss them.

Lucy&Millie

I took my girls to their first parade a few weeks ago. They weren't so sure about all of the people walking by and waving at first. However, this man walked by with dog treats, and I let the girls have them. Then stray candy being thrown made it to the girls... They LOVED the parade then... I had to physically restrain them from knocking over little kids to get to the candy first...

Lucy will let us know it time for us to stop working by laying her head on the bottom stair and just moan and moan and moan. With each moan they get louder and louder – she doesn’t stop till one of us stops and gets ready for their walk.

Or… We like to call Lucy our plus size girl – I’ve always said that if I got another hound I would call her Andre because she reminds me so much of a seal – when she lays down on her side, she’s so big that her legs stick straight out because they can’t touch the ground. Or when she wants to get into the car – she start running to it at 100 mph – jump up and stop and turn her head around to us as if to say – well, I did my part now get me in there. Mabel just didn’t look like a seal for me to give her that name.

Ok, I wasn’t going to say anything about Mabel because she’s so young and always doing something crazy – but right now while I type this she’s trying to catch the rain outside the patio door with her tongue and slapping it with her paw.

Flash used to do something like that – I use to call it her happy dance – and I managed to get her last happy dance on film two days before I lost her. (Well, three shots of her doing her flip) If you look at her neck you can see the nasty lump. She did this everyday around the time we stopped working and was time for their walk.

I love hearing all the funny things they do – I guess that’s why they call them clown dogs –

Basset hounds are routinely called the clowns of the dog world. They are bred to be independent thinkers, so they are not eager to please. An intruder would not be hurt unless he tripped over a basset hound. Being bred as pack animals, basset hounds are mild and even-tempered.
