Moe's Hobbies:

* perimeter patrol - several times daily
* alerting us to all who pass too closely (dog-walkers, baby-walkers, joggers, school-buses, delivery trucks, and garbage trucks)

* barking to alert me when it's snack-time (morning cookies, after work cookies, before dinner cookies, and after dinner cookies

Ike for the most part has one hobby...running rabbits

Terry · 03-10-2007, 09:40 PM

Ike may possibly be the only REAL Basset here!

The rest of us have pampered over-sized lap-dogs.

Annie's day starts with feeding the birds and squirrels and they stand right next to her as we toss the bread over the fence and is very gentle to them and one time licked the top of a bird's head. YUCK!!!

Then if weather is nice lies outside on her lounge chair watching the squirrels take over our yard and once in a while will jump down and chase them just for the "thrill of the chase".

The rest of the day is sitting by her cookie jar waiting for someone to toss her one and then napping til her daddy gets home and then sneaks in as many belly rubs as she can and then we take her for a long walk in the neighborhood where everyone has to stop and pet her and bring her treats so it really isn't much exercise like we would like for her even though now we belong to the dog park and she runs like crazy there chasing all the little dogs.

Around 8 she jumps in our bed and is out like a light and the next day...it starts again!
