<DIV>Well, my sweet Millie is really spoiled. We have 3 beds for her in
our bedroom, but she seems to prefer sleeping in the bathroom on a little bath
mat rather than any of her other beds. It is not a real problem except for
the fact that our bathroom is very narrow, and makes for a real problem when one
needs to use it in the middle of the night. She is also the most stubborn
basset I have had. When we walk and the weather is not to her liking(too
hot, too cold, too wet, etc.) she will stop, dig in her paws and refuse to move
for anything. With her back problems, I can not pull or yank her too hard,
not that it would make a difference. And if I want her to move to do
anything, she will just look at me, PERIOD! If I need her to go out in the
morning, it takes my wife to prod her from behind to get her to move her royal
butt. Her personality has really started to bloom since she has come into
my life. She is a real sweetie.</DIV>
