I am finding that I spoil Boomer more than I have any of my other pets and human kids (excluding my late kitty, Dusty; he was spoiled rotten!).
Treats and toys galore and he doesn't have to pick up after himself.
Can sleep on the bed whenever he wants, and lays across dad's lap in the evening with a smug look on his face.
And so on.
Now, the latest. I recently completed an afghan for my husband (for a belated 25th anniversary present), and now he thinks that Boomer needs an afghan too. Only basset colored. I offered to teach him how to knit and/or crochet, which of course, was met with guffaws.
So, I have been spending my time on the internet looking for basset colored yarn. Seriously. The black and white is easy enough, but the brown on him has been difficult, as he looks reddish brown in the sunshine, other shades of brown in different lights. Leaning toward variegated browns.
Gads. I cannot believe I am doing this. :wacko:
