I have Melvin Udall for a dog times 3
If I let the male Corgi (Charlie) in the back door, he won't go up the 3 stairs to the kitchen unless I go first. He'll circle, go up a step, back down, look a me with panic in his eyes, and repeat until I go up the stairs. THEN he'll go.

The female Corgi (Bridgette) takes her rawhide bone over into a corner, walks up to Charlie, stands there intimidating him until he drops his, then she picks it up and takes it over into the corner too. THEN she'll chew ON HERS, not HIS.

The Corgi/Border mix (Sneezer0 won't take a Meaty Bone treat unless the others have theirs FIRST. If you give him one first, he will put it down on the floor, wait for the other two to be given theirs, then he'll pick his up, and calmly take it downstairs to the basement, and SLOWLY consume it like it was caviar.

I won't even START on the 4 obsessive/compulsive CATS. I don't have a house: I have Phylum Mammalia "Group Therapy."

1. Beware the free dog named Lucky!
Edited on Tue Nov-18-03 08:57 AM by displacedtexan
bichon runt:
retarded (gets lost in the backyard; forgets where the food dish is)
metal rod in his leg ($2000)
fused spinal cord (monthly meds- $35)
going blind and deaf

surely wins the 'forrest gump of dogs' award!
but the sweetest dog on the planet!

and don't get me started on the other bichon, the throw-away yorkie, or the cat who thinks she's a dog!

didn't we learn anything from "no Exit"?????????

2. Sneezer is from Texas.
Rescued as a Pup from the Houston Animal Shelter. My then 3 year old daughter spotted him, and it was love at first sight.

Best dog I've ever known.
