Oh, you haven't met Bailey yet? He is the dachshund who lives with my parents; actually I think he runs the house.
I wonder if this somewhat wacky dog can tell time. My folks live on a big hill where the part below the house is much steeper than the part above the house. The daily morning "walking the dog" activity heads up the hill from the house, and often the afternoon walk heads down the hill where Mom & Bailey meet Dad on his way home from work and get a ride back up the hill. Not a bad deal... Well today in the mid-afternoon Bailey insisted on walking down the hill even though Mom really wanted to head up the hill. Do you think he can tell time? Do you think he thought he was meeting his ride back up the hill? Whatever he was thinking (do dogs really think?), apparently he was guite happy to prance down the hill and back up again.
Yes, that's me hiding behind our crazy Bailey - a self-portrait of the two of us... |
