<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Yes they are part mountain goat - after Miss Becky
had intusseption</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>at age 2 having a piece of intestine out and
stitched - very sick but</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>while walking she jumped up on a 5 foot
ledge. I couldn't believe</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>it - fortunately she didn't rip everything to
pieces. She was one lively basset</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>and their cognitive skills are superb.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>But a warning. When I had dazey and apollo
Bas and Airedale I</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>went home one day and the Airedale had the cord
wrapped around</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>his neck. Another time he had a paper spike
embedded in his hip.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>So he was smart enough not to move with the blind
cord around his neck</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>but is very scary. Kids have been know to do
the same thing with</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>disastrous results.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Just a warning.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>GEorgie and Miss Becky</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>P,S. Did anyone else have trouble getting to Helen
Walls email?</FONT></DIV>
