[Dailydrool] Are they Smart????

[basetsavr5 at aol.com]

Momma here---I know they are smart--but I don't think I will ask my 
neighbors. I was going to grill tonight, but thought better showing my 
face in the yard-as Elwood would say--I hab liddel storie.
We all know that humping is a act of play, show of dominance in pack 
order. Elwood feels he is in charge of this at any time, the boy has no 
shame on Brudder Jake. Just no scruples.
Late this afternoon, as I looked out the kitchen window, here is Elwood 
and Jake, Elwood is obviously ---well rested--shall we say--Jake is 
just standing there, really paying no attention to what Elwood is 
doing. But the guy across the pond behind us has stopped in his tracks, 
watching. (No graphics--you all get the picture)
It didn't end here.
Enter Sister Daisy, which now runs across the yard, broadsides the boys 
and jumps on poor Jakes head for her "time at play".
Neighbor man moves closer to his fence-still watching. I can see his 
choppers hanging open--
I turned to hubby and said--can you even imagine what the neighbor must 
be thinking??Well Elwood hopped off, Daisy moved, and Elwood turned and 
looked at Jake and proceeded to lift his leg and pee on Jake's back leg.

Smart--the story might seem like it is funny, but Elwood was actually 
----in my humble basset opinion---teaching Jake his place, as was 
Daisy. Jake can try and act like he is large and in charge, but the 
gang teaches him his place.
Bassets not only train us peeps, but they train each other also.
I just wish Elwood would do his "training" in the house----

Drool to all in need---from my smart bassets
