<DIV>I got to see this yesterday ...Buster in Action! Buster was the roundest
most smooshie puppy in the 13 babies our Emma D. Freckle Fairy had...What a
delightful boy he is. He has a new hobby though.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>A Treet Times:</DIV>
<DIV>Has your Basset ever done this? First he dives by. Runs licketty split past
another Hound.</DIV>
<DIV>If he does not snag a bit of the treet...then Maybe BUMPS into em. Treet is
dropped. Treet piece is grabbed up by Buster.</DIV>
<DIV>I saw him do this yesterday Quick as the blink of an eye he KNEW we would
CATCH him. He KNEW he would be in trouble. Buster did not care!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Buster USED to have the name of "Dovey" and he was my boy pick of the
litter of 13 darling babies. "Dovey" was the MOST angellic darling puppy child
you could imagine! NOW...now he is definitely OEBE.Yes our baby is a
"Gangsta" (do you hear this Yola Bean? You too Harry! Dont listen Toshi!</DIV>
<DIV>He plans ahead. Buster swings by gleefully goofy as a monkey up
swinging in a tree! </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Bomber drive by so that he slid right into some bushes! His head was deep
in the bushes and we could NOT get to his face ....and he gobbled the treet up
as he was pulled outta the bushes.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Rita his guardian (he NEEDS a KEEPER!) saz he does it all the time now and
the othr hounds are on to him.</DIV>
<DIV>It is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo funny. How can they be such
soft squishy huggable darlings and THEN be so calculating and bold!
Devious!</DIV>
<DIV>Ha! DEELIGHTFUL!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>PS</DIV>
<DIV>He is never mean. None of the dogs really seem to MIND. It is
soooo funny. Mr. Lumpy and his other 4 Basset Houndy friends get
smaller treets now and they ALSO have learned to GO AND HIDE THEIR
HEADS INTO THE BUSHES from their OEBE Brudder. It is a more fun way to be
asked to go outside.</DIV>

<DIV>Naughty Buster!He just grinned at us. He thought it was funny too. </DIV>
<DIV>PS if we tell them to "sit" they sit pretty for treets... and the Gansta
thing does not occur....this Gangsta thing is just a new twist on keeping things
funny and interesting.</DIV>
<DIV>Gotta love em.</DIV></FONT><DIV CLASS="aol_ad_footer" ID="79660a317e3213a1efd1927c9f31fe39"><br/><font style="color:black;font:normal 10pt arial,san-serif;"> <hr style="margin-top:10px"/></font></DIV></BODY></HTML>
