Well, Basil isn't afraid of the TV, but he is literally afraid of his own 
shadow! And other shadows, of course. I have a floor lamp that sits right behind 
my couch, and he has a bed in front of the couch. If he's on his bed and awake, 
every time I move and cast a shadow on the wall or floor in front of him, he 
jumps like he's been zapped by something. I feel kind of bad for him, but it's 
also really funny.

Hi Everyone,
 
Have any of you ever had a dog that is terrified of the  television?
 
Tomorrow is our Trudys 5th birthday,we  adopted her from BBR a little over 4 
years ago.She is our girl with the sense of  humor,you can see it in her eyes 
when she is thinking about being a brat.She is  queen of the couch,waits for 
another dog to get on the couch then launches  herself at them with a really 
loud bellow,knocks them off every time.She has a  terrible under bite so she 
really can't bite,at least not hard.This was  caused from being kept in a muzzle 
the first 9 months of her life,thank dog for  BBR rescue that saved her,thus 
winding up with us to love.Happy Birthday little  girl.
 
Saturday is our Jefferys birthday and he also  will be five.He is the biggest 
mush,welcomes all fosters,(there have been around  40) with open paws.Hes our 
amBASSETer when we do rescue events.The thing  that  amazes me about Jeff is 
this,We do BBR bassetfest every year,we of course take  our fosters,what is 
interesting to me  is that at some point in the day you will  see Jeff in the 
middle ,our current fosters on one side of him and former  fosters on the other 
side and they form a group,like a family reunion,its really  cool to see.
 
For both of my 5 year old here is my wish  for you,THE BROWN TRUCK ,PLEASE
