One of the first times that my hubby took me to the keys, there was a dog that lived next door named Gunner. He was a huge older yellow lab. Well, we went fishing and used Ballyhoo as bait (deep sea fishing). I was throwing the Ballyhoo off of the fish house dock to the pelicans because it was the end of the day and we couldn't use those again. Well, Gunner comes up behind me on the underhand back swing and scooped that fish right out of my hand! One gulp and that 8 inch fish was gone! We still talk about it and it was about 6 years ago. Poor Gunner has gone to the bridge, but will always be remembered as the ballyhoo thief.

TOO funny! I am learning VERY quickly that what Bassetts lack in leg they make up for in personality!! The other day I made the catastrophic mistake of clueing buddy in on where his treats are kept. He followed me into the next room, made sure I was sitting down and occupied. He then gave me this SUPER mischeivious look then RAN (and that is not something he is often inclined to do, LOL) back into "his room" and started pawing at the cupboard door. I sneaked behind him to watch him, and when he actually got the door open, I said "ahem", and he about jumped outta his skin!! Then I said "what are YOU getting into??" at which point he looked at me and started casually sniffing about OTHER parts of the room, as if to say "I was just checking it all out.. by the way, has there been a bunny through here lately or something?" I about fell over laughing.... If only he were as innocent as he puts forth!!("  ") |
