Some dogs are chewers, some dogs are barkers, some dogs are diggers, some dogs are destroyers, some dogs sleep all the time, some dogs are excited pee-ers, What your dogs vice reveals about his personality Page 9, next the article about the bat boy found dead in Mexico.
Rudy – was a chewer when he was young and teething but grew out of that stage around a year. Rudy’s vice – barking! If someone walks by he barks, he runs to the window, he runs outside and bark, bark, bark. Other things that make him bark, people who ride by, scooter by, garbage trucks, delivery trucks, mail trucks, someone parking their car, our neighbor going to their door, neighbors getting their mail, someone ringing the door bell on TV (this one really gets me since we don’t have and never have had a door bell), the kids knocking to see who is hogging the bathroom and so on. You don’t want to know what he does when someone actually comes to the door. We have tried to teach him that barking is an “outdoor voice” and sometimes he gets it but mostly he doesn’t. He’s our “Special Boy”.
Abby – chewer of bizarre things. Shortly after we brought her home, she ate a heating pad. Then she ate a pillow that vibrated. She also ate a laundry basket, her kennel, part of the couch, Q-tips, used Kleenex, multiple stuffed toys, bones, greenies, underwear and some other things that are just TOO GROSS to mention.
Sienna – DIGGER DOG. I noticed today that she was out in the dog run for a very long time. It’s not that big of a space and there are no toys out there so I wondered why she was out there for so long. I went to go check on her and she was in the process of digging a huge hole. I figured it’s the first time that she is keeping herself busy without getting in trouble and since the dog run is meant to be a big pooping ground, few holes aren’t going to hurt anything, so I encouraged her new found vice. Now, if she chooses to dig a hole in my garden, well then there is going to be trouble!

DIGGING! We've yet to have a single, solitary tiger at our house because the girls diligently tend to building and maintaining their first line of defense. TIGER TRAPS!! Of course, they also work well as people, chicken, turkey, horse and cow traps... Haven't found any 'possums in any of 'em yet, unlike the support post holes that we dug when we were building the barn but, hey, the girls aren't backhoes (THANK THE LORD!!!). Sometimes I think that's what they are aspiring to. Either that or log skidders! We've got an AMAZING assortment of sticks and log-wanna-bes crowding around the yard right now. I guess they're pulling them up out of the marsh. Maybe I can teach them to put their treasures in their tiger traps and bury them, thereby killing two troublesome birds with one stone? NAWWWW...
