This is our page dedicated to our dogs.
There is never a dull moment around with
these two. Just when you think you
have them figured out, they show you a new side of themselves. We live in Senatobia, MS, where it gets extremely hot in the summer and pretty cold in the winter sometimes, but the dogs seem to be able to adjust to both extremes. We will be moving to Montana this summer though, so I hope they can learn to adapt with the bitter cold. There are a few things we have learned from our dogs that I will share with you.

TOP TEN REASONS TO OWN DOGS

10 - I love hair in my coffee
09 - Never did like having a full nights sleep
08 - Wanted my vet to get a new BMW
07 - I just thought the furniture looked nice
06 - I love the sound of barking in the morning,
noon, afternoon, evening, night, ....
05 - Backyard needed relandscaping anyway
04 - Neighbors didn't complain enough
03 - Kids wouldn't be enough of a challenge
02 - If you can train and spoil one dog, why not ten
01 - Wanted to see if spouse really meant those vows.

1) Never let them in the bed with you or they will take it over for the rest of their lives.
2) They are very high maintenance and require lots of love and attention from their family.
3) They tend to be very jealous of each other and other people when it comes to attention.
4) Their bark is usually much worse than their bite, but they can be protective.
5) Even with extensive training, they are definitely independent and if something catches their attention, it is hard to get them to obey.(This especially holds true for chasing little furries like squirrels.)
6) Apparently a common problem with them is the act of suckling a blanket or whatever soft thing they can get in their mouth.They will bunch up a blanket in between their front legs and zone out while sucking on the little ball of material they have in their mouth.
