Eleanor the Mischief Maker

Eleanor the Mischief Maker

Santa brought Eleanor to us this last Christmas. Love her to death; she amazes me every day, with new and exciting ways to destroy things.

Here are all the fun things she destroyed this week:

  1. She grabbed my wallet and destroyed it.
  2. I was warming the oven for a late dinner Connie’s Frozen Pizza; stupidly, I left the frozen pizza too close to the edge and she took a nibble.
  3. She grabbed a brand new box of shot guns shells and shredded the box. (Didn’t mess with the shells).
    She grabbed a water pitcher and bounced it around the house.
  4. Not pictured. She pulled a tray of lasagna off the counter.

Baby proofing is child’s play compared to Basset proofing 😆😆😆. I am going to need to reassess and improve my process.

Biting!!

Help! My 2.5 month old puppy is vicious when she bites. She has even drawn blood a few times. I’ve tried to redirect her with toys and give positive reinforcement with treats when she doesn’t bite but she doesn’t care and will still attack with her shark teeth! Any advice on how to tame the beast?

Meet Spud

Meet Spud

Spud is a 7 year old basset mix that belongs to the rescue I volunteer with. He was originally a stray roaming the street for a couple of weeks in Jacksonville, FL before he was brought into animal control after being hit by a car.

Spud’s family knew he was missing and knew that he ended up at animal control and never came for him. They dumped him and left him to be forgotten.

He’s 73lbs and could use a diet, but he’s already very sweet and loyal to his humans. All he really wants to do is sit on your feet, roam the yard, nap, and eat. He’s also good with cats.

He has to move from his foster home because they have an elderly blind dog that keeps stepping on him or running into, or getting into Spud’s crate. It seems to trigger Spud. They also have another female basset in the house who he does great with, and they play, share toys, and have zero issues.

I want nothing more than for Spud to find a family who loves him.
