[Dailydrool] Quirks

[DDropp at aol.com]

Both of my guys have their own special quirks.  Ben, the Devil Dog,  runs as 
soon as free from his nightly sleep for  his post on the arm of the  couch in 
the family room.  He sits there like a stone lion, watching for  dogs to walk 
on our sidewalk, and then bark his head off.  He will sit  there for hours 
just sitting and watching, and then tearing from window  to  window as they 
traverse the sidewalk.  He also will sit very patiently  while  you eat your meal, 
not begging like  the others.  He just  sits doing nothing.  Then as soon as 
he sees you are done, leaps into  action, cruising the table for anything at 
all, right in front of you, without  shame.
 
Charlie, the one with the bad back, has for the six years I have had him,  
will every morning get up and head for  the cats water and drink his  fill.  You 
cannot get him to move one inch until he has had his fill.   His other quirk 
is letting you know he wants a walk.  He comes to you and  whines without 
letup, until you take him.  Then when you open the door, he  will walk into  the 
hallway, turn around and head back into  the  house, until you coax him out 
again.  This is most frustrating because then  the others run, who you do  not 
want to take out yet, into the hallway, and  you need to get them back intothe 
house and Charlie back into the hallway.
