hon - stop the school bus!!




Read this after searching for "Beagle Personality Traits" on Google:


"Of the utmost importance is to train the Beagle not to "bolt' out the front door or any door that has been opened. Here again due to their scenting ability and inquisitive nature, they are prone to "explore" anywhere their noses will take them. Running with their noses to the ground makes them a good target for moving vehicles."

Oh, is this ever so true!

This morning, Little Guy, took Hubby and I to places in our neighborhood we had never seen before. I opened the door to leave for work and he darted out in the same manner that brides flock to the bi-annual Bridal Extravaganza. :-P

He crossed a VERY busy street, we stopped at least 2 cars and a school bus from running him over AND it was a freaking 46 degrees outside! (first cold spell in Houston since. . . hmmmm, can't remember. . .) After 30 minutes, the dumb dog decided to jump (yes, JUMP!) over a fence into someone's backyard only to be met by a small pack of barking dogs. He promptly jumped back over into Hubby's waiting arms.

We weren't laughing - at least not then. :-P

Oh wow!! I feel your heart attack. My toy poodle did the SAME thing last week. He's usually so good that he doesn't need to be walked on a leash, but he spotted a hot terrier across the street and took off JUST as a car was coming. I literally have never screamed so loud in my life! Thankfully he skidded to a stop when I screamed, but he sure got a big spanking afterward!! :-D
