Ruger the "Spring" hound reporting in from Howling Hound Acres. In farm news: On Wednesday momma found 3 baby bunnies up next to the house. She let them be, hoping that their mom would come back for them. Thursday was not a good day here at the farm. Momma went out around 11 to start weed whacking the the high visibility areas around the farm. When she started on the backside of the house, she has a thought. "I better look for the bunnies again. She thought about letting Xander and I look for them but Xander thinks that anything smaller than himself should be chased, caught and thrown in a cooking pot. Momma went to look for them earlier, but couldn't find any of them, so she thought they must have moved on down the bunny trail. But before she could move from thought to action; bam. Bunny hit, and killed.  Momma was horrified. She took the bunny to a final resting place. Then looked for the other 2. She found one and took it to a small wooded area in the back pasture and finished the weed whacking for the day. She could not find the 3rd bunny. We hoped that he is somewhere safe. Momma then started to mow the yard. Xander and I had been staying in our outside pen since it was such a nice day. She was just about to finish mowing when she saw Xander chewing on something. Upon investigation it was a wrist strap for a work glove. No sign of the rest of the glove. How in doGs name did he get that? Momma searched high and low, inside and outside and no sign of the glove. She had a bad feeling of where it was...in Mr Xander the "I'm a Billy Goat". I told him not to eat it, but he not listen. Momma called the vet to ask wether she should induce vomiting with Peroxide or just bring him in. Vet said peroxide him and if the glove did not come up to bring him in. Well Mr. Starved to Death drank the peroxide out of the bowl...momma didn't even have to syringe it into him. So then the peroxide hit him, eyes roll back, he turn a light shade of green and then he tossed up a finger of the glove.  Then a darker shade of green he turned, and "Yurp" here came the rest of it.  He urped a few more times but it just clear fluid. Once he quit yacking, momma took the pieces of the glove to try to piece it back together to make sure that it was all there. It looks like the majority of it is there, Thank doG! Momma came in made me supper and Xander a bowl of oatmeal to settle his tummy back down.  Then momma made a stiff Capt. Jack (Capt. Morgan, Jack Daniels, and a shot of coke) and a pizza for herself to calm down from a bad day on the farm. On Friday momma went out to sweep the pool deck and guess what she found? Guess? She found Bunny #3, who she was able to catch and relocate to our bunny sanctuary in the back pasture. 
count:  1 bunny and 1 work glove  = KIA.  
2 bunnies = rescued and relocated.
