Ed's best friend

Lou is famous for eating all sorts of things, from hair growth pills to an entire bag of hot dog rolls (13 out of 16) in seconds flat. But I think the funniest thing he ever did was when he was a pup.

My neighbor Pam, had her niece's birthday party. The little girl had just turned two. It was an outdoor party on the deck. Everyone came, and Lou was invited too. When it came time to sing "Happy Birthday" everyone went into the house to light the candles on the cake and sing. Lou was left outside. When we walked out to open the presents...they were all over the back yard. Lou had opened every gift. Tissue paper and wrapping paper all over the place, and there was Lou, with a stuffed animal in his mouth. He looked at us, as if to say, "Thanks guys! That was fun!!!" Everyone one had a good laugh over that...and that next Christmas, as I was putting the gifts under the tree, Lou ran up and immeadiatley started to open then. Needless to say, we don't keep our unwrapped gifts there any more! LOL!

Oh my, Lou, you are too funny! Good thing everyone had a laugh over it and didn't get mad. I've never even entertained the thought of keeping wrapped gifts anywhere near mine. I know it won't end well.

The funniest thing Gandy has done thus far, is put his whole head underneath the skirt of a nun and goose her. Howling to the moon while sound asleep is a close second.

Annie hasn't tried to ope any of the gifts under the tree...yet. But her tail keeps taking most of them out. Zero hind end awareness in that girl

Not sure its the funniest, I think I cried before I laughed. About one week after adopting Eclair, I went to run a few errands for an hour or so. As I walked in the door I was greeted by a basset completely covered in white suff. As I went into the house, the lazy susan was open and the white powder substance was everywhere. Floors, counters, tables, chairs, couches, everywhere. In the center of the family room was a shredded paper looking bag and an exhausted basset with what looks like bread dough druelling from her mouth, in her teeth, stuck to her feet,hanging from her ears. She even had dough balls in her nostrills!

I finally got the paper bag and discovered it was the large unopened bag of flour she had swiped! Took me a whole day to clean up that mess! Had she just been content with the flour it would have been fine, but flour makes a hound thirsty, and we all know they are not the cleanest drinkers!

I laugh now, but I was mad for days!

Only funny in hindsight..large tree fell down in back yard creating a large hole. Barney would spend hours going in and out. One day I heard whinning, looked over and saw this basset head sticking out of the grass 6 feet from hole...only a head. Evidently, there was a tunnel from a root and he just popped through. After I dug him out and put an end to the "fun hole", I could laugh and only wished I had taken a picture.

These have made me laugh....and thankful they weren't my basset boys.....my presents are safe so far under the tree, its the bows that get swiped.....one of my funniest stories from woody hayes is returning to pick him up from our local petco groomers only to heard the ominious words "guess what Woody did"...oh-no...they just laughed and said that they had placed him next to in the kennels a lady St Bernard...the 2 of them barked and barked back and forth...until it got quiet all of a sudden...when they went to check, Woody had knocked down the wall between the two and they were all curled up together, quiet and happy as 2 peas in a pod...LOL

We think its a riot when Lollypop invariably has a twisted upper lip (lip hang) when we eat dinner, as if to say, " this is an outrage, where's mine"? Works every time.
