While I a writing this, chunky monkey Jean Paul is crooning for a treat, or attention, or both, but I just spent 20 minutes with him letting him lick all the skin off my lips... <div><br></div><div>He is the alpha, and he is rather jealous of jr. who commands a lot of my attention. He would not enjoy the outings that jr. does, and won't eat a lot of the food I give jr. (mainly fruit things), but attention away from him hurts his feelings, and I know it. I make special time for all the hounds, and they all mean so much to me.</div><div><br></div><div>Regarding weight,</div><div><br></div><div>Pumpkin, Nigel, Colette, Nikki and Jr. are in the 60 - 70 range.</div><div><br></div><div>Pumpkin was NSHA league rescue at a young age. They said 8 wks, but it could have been 6 wks, an insider told me. Nigel and Colette were BYB before I knew better, Nikki is BHRA and Jr. is OBR.</div><div><br></div><div>Max was a tri-state basset rescue and he was 15 LBs underweight when he came to us, but he is a consistent 50 more or less now.</div><div><br></div><div>Jellybean is so Jellybean, and she is always under 50.</div><div><br></div><div>JP weighs more than he should. Last weigh in, a couple of days ago, he was 98, a pound less than last month, but he is a mill pup, and he may well not be pure basset, but he is pure gold to my heart. </div><div><br></div><div>Some complained that I had him too thin, but when he was neutered, that is when he developed pano, which lasted 4 yrs. </div><div><br></div><div>Healing drool to all in need</div><div><br></div><div>Jax</div> </body>
