The boys alerted me the other night that there was someone coming in the gate. By the time the man made it to the doorbell, Baxter was jumping on the screen to greet him. The man said he was a census worker and he had some questions for me. <br>
<br>Knowing my dogs and sensing that the man was not too terrified (he did enter the yard even after hearing the bellowing basset barks), I asked if he minded if I let the boys out. "They don't bite, but the big one (Baxter) might jump on you," I told him. <br>
<br>I opened the door, and, sure enough, Baxter stood on his hind legs, placed his front paws on the man's stomach, and stretched his nose out and sniffed the man all over. <br><br>By the time the man had been duly snuffled from head to toe, he realized he had the wrong address. Hope he can get that slobber out of his pants.<br clear="all">
