  Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, Happy Kwanzaa...oh heck, happy  
  holidays to everyone regardless of belief!

  Every year the pups get Hanukkah gifts from my friends in  
  Massachusetts.  This is always so sweet and fun.  I let them "help"  
  open the box--left in a non-reusable state afterwards, and then I  
  reach inside and divvie up the goods.

  Usually the gifts are the typical stuffed squeaky toys that Della  
  punctures within 10 minutes and then manages to de-stuff over the  
  course of the day.  But this time there was an extra-special squeaky  
  toy.  It is (notice not past-tense as it's still going strong) a  
  stuffed dreidel that doesn't squeak---it plays the first 2 lines of  
  "Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel."  That's it...just the first 2 lines:   
  "Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel; I made it out of clay; and when it's  
  dried and ready, then dreidel I shall play."  Of all dogs, Buford has  
  decided that THIS is his toy and that it will NOT be destroyed.  So  
  here's this 9 year, 11 month, 20 day old basset hound huddling over  
  this blue stuffed toy who has quickly learned EXACTLY how to activate  
  the voice box inside!  He bites, it sings, he lays there wagging his  
  tail until the 2 lines of song are over and then he bites it  
  again...it sings again, he wags, and then he bites again.

  For the first 3 minutes it was hysterical.....after the hour I wanted  
  to go screaming into the night!  But don't try to take it away from  
  him--that low guttural growl that starts deep within the soul of  
  every basset hound begins like a distant thunder and if you do not  
  step away from the toy you are going to lose a finger or two.

  Drool to all in need, snooters to everyone!
