Speaking of being born, July 1, 2006 is my birthday, so you could call me an All-American Hound. I was adopted by a really nice lady who loved me a lot, but fell and unfortunately broke her hip and could no longer take care of me. Her kids tried to take care of me while she was recuperating, but of course being away from my home and her I acted up quite a bit and they thought it best that I was re-housed.
My current family saw an advertisement in the newsletter. . ."Needed A Good Home for a Beagle Pup" and they fell for it; hook, line and sinker. I have been living with them since October 2007 and have won their hearts over for eternity. Let me introduce them to you. . .
First there is Chrissy. . .she is the one who read the advertisement and found me. She is the Human Alpha Dog of the family, she is fun-loving and caring and lets me hang my head out the window when we go for car rides. In addition, she lets me sleep with her even though I drive her crazy with going under the covers and out of the covers all night long. . .I love to burrow! My favorite name that she has given me is Benjamin-a-min-a-min. I like it because it rhyme with cinnamon which is one of my primary colors. Unfortunately, I am not a typical Beagle. . .I don't have a bridge, just the beginnings of one. I think it keeps me young at heart.
Next there is Matt. . .he is the teenager of the family. He claims that I have the biggest ears in the world and love to call me "ani-mule" and "hound" when I do something he doesn't want me to do. Since he is going to be going off to college is just a few short years, I have a tendency to migrate into his bed at night. . .after all, it will be my sanctuary when he isn't home. He just bought a motorized scooter. I don't know what is so "cool" about it. . .it didn't even come with a sidecar and there are warning stickers all over it that say "No Pets".
I do have to admit, I do think that Matt is a really cool guy. . .even though his scooter doesn't have a sidecar. He is the best at come up with inventive ways to keep me entertained. See how he captures me attention?
Finally, there is Dave. He is a real-lovey kinda guy and every time he looks at me he says "zzzzBeeeagle". Even though I am not one of those snuggling kinda Beagles. . .Dave really knows how to make me melt in to a good snuggle mood. When it come to riding in the car, Dave has the best lap to sit on. Needless to say, since Dave and I spend a lot of time together when we are awake, I don't bother him at night. . .after all he needs his "beauty" rest.
Oh well, that's it for my family. I really love them a lot. I have just one questions for you. Do you think I have the biggest ears in the world?
