[Dailydrool] Bassets and the full moon????

[BubbaDoggInc at aol.com]

Does anyone have a basset that acts "More Crazy" during  the days of the full 
moon? We have the three "Ratboyz' but only one, Elvis  Ray, the wild child, 
acts like his brain has gone missing during the full moon.  Now, I know from 
reading the Drool that their brains don't come in till age  3, so how can 
something that isn't technically there, go missing during the full  moon? He goes 
from the wild child to the freaking maniac! 
 
    They all are exposed to the same moon but the other two  don't change 
their bad ways at all. Elvis Ray, however, is like living with ten  two year 
olds..... has to be watched every minute and NEVER slows down. I  finally realized 
it always occurred during the full moon. We adopted him  from CBHR at eight 
months because an elderly couple gave him up because  they couldn't handle him. 
He was not underweight, or shy, or mistreated by the  couple, but he was kept 
outside because of his wild ways. He was never taught  good manners so we 
worked hard on that and finally realized that he was a wild  spirit, never to be 
changed. He is settling down some but when the full moon  comes, Katy bar the 
door! 
 
    He is so sweet to the foster dogs we have had and  gets along well with 
all doggies but they tire of his antics fairly quickly. He  loves people, no 
matter who they are and will lick them to death. He is an  excellent rat catcher 
(hence their nicknames) and an avid hunter of anything  that dares to come in 
the yard. Nothing leaves our yard alive. We love him with  all our hearts and 
just know that Elvis Ray is always gonna be Elvis Ray.   His brothers are 
three and well behaved and just accept him like he is. Anyone  have a dog like 
this?
