[Dailydrool] Right-brained bassets, left-brained owner

[Pam McQuade]

<<I had to laugh when Pam said that perhaps bassets find homes with creative 
people, because they don't care so much about the rules. I am the least 
creative person on the planet, and a total stickler for rules and order.... 
They have caused me to lighten up, loosen up, and relax. They drive me 
totally nuts with their sloppiness, stubborness, and general disinterest in 
anything I say. However, I laugh more, get outside more, and get more 
cuddles and slobbery kisses than ever before...I wouldn't go back to my 
world of perfection and order for all the money in the world!!>>

Aha, the bassets are making you creative (in their own sense of that word), 
whether you want to be or not. Another case of basset slave training. 
Someone who cannot go with the flow would have tossed out those pups long 
ago. They just brought out a new side of you that you didn't even know you 
had.

Bassets are wonderful for people. But I admit that before mine came, I too 
had a neater home--though I've never been much of a housekeeper. Ben 
Franklin may have thought that cleanliness was next to godliness, but it's 
certainly not a basset asset.
