[Dailydrool] Confused by bassets ....

[Dale Rutz]

Hi all, it’s the clueless momPerson here,
 
I am confused.  Clueless actually.  Here is my story.
 
Last night I went to the back of the house to take a shower.  LuLu followed me.  
She arranged herself on the dress pillows on my bed.  She inquired if I wouldn’t 
rather snuggle her than take a shower.  I decided she was right.  I snuggled up 
with LuLu on the quilt and dress pillows for a while.  Then, I firmly told her 
that she would have to hold down those pillows without any further assistance 
from me as I really wanted to shower and brush my teeth.  And I took my leave.
 
Afterwards I went back down the hall to watch a bit of the news, turn on the 
dishwasher, and say goodnight to Greg.  The girls were already in bed.  Snoopy 
followed me back to the bedroom.  LuLu allowed me to move her over onto Gregs 
pillows (she was smack in the middle).  Snoopy climbed up on the bed and curled 
up near my feet.  A little while later Greg came to bed and LuLu allowed him to 
move her back into the center and he turned off the light.  Gracie was AWOL.  
Now here is where it gets interesting ……..
 
A few minutes later we were all sound asleep in the dark house.  Some time later 
Snoopy let out a sharp bark.  It was a HEY bark.  Just one.  I turned on the 
light.  Snoopy was laying on his side at my feet.  Gracie has snuck up onto the 
bed without waking anyone up.  She then slunk over to my side and down at the 
foot of the bed and arranged herself so that she was back to back with Snoopy.  
You couldn’t even fit a piece of paper in between them anywhere from their head 
to their butt, she had molded herself to Snoopy.  When I turned on the light she 
looked at me like …. what???    Snoopy looked over his shoulder at her, 
harmphed, lay his head back down, and went back to sleep.  And I turned out the 
light.
 
WHAT????  What just happened here????  Labs only lay down touching other dogs 
that they LIKE.  They ONLY lay down like THAT, molded to the other dog, when 
they are bonded.  PERIOD.  Snoopy and LuLu don’t even lay like that.  Snoopy and 
LuLu might lay butt to butt.  And Gracie and LuLu lay down all the time 
touching, or with butts pressed into each other.  But not like this.  I thought 
Snoopy and Gracie had a strained relationship ….. she pushes his buttons all the 
time and every once in a while she goes to far and he lets her have it.  What 
the heck??
 
Anybody know??
 
More later from the ever clueless momPerson with weird bassets ……..
