Well... it's good to know you have a guardian (squirrels can be FIERCE opponents!)

BTW: I don't think it's RIGHT for you to be impugning your dogs BRAVERY... have you ever actually SEEN him come face to face with a squirrel... maybe he just WANTS you to think he's afraid of the squirrel! (It's ok... my sister does the same thing with her Yorkie... I told her she just needs to WAIT... one day the squirrel is gonna be in her HOUSE and then the dog won't DEFEND her (Since she went and INSULTED HIM) she'll be SORRY THEN!!!)

Great pics Brite!

Oh man, Brite! He sounds just like my little dog. He is so scared of everything --- poor little thing. He won't even go outside by himself. If my big dog won't go with him - I have to go with him.

My sister's male corgi does this... it's SUCH a kill! And yours does the same thing! (He'll DO the howl and then you KEEP DOING IT... the dog just looks at you like "I JUST DID IT!" )

*GRIN*

Sometimes finding your inner wolf is HARD! *SMIRK*

Thanks for the video!

Brite, did you know that when I clicked on the Flikr page to watch him howling (since the little bugger won't do it when I'm around), he actually LISTENED to his own self howling, then started a counterpoint with growling (okay, so his growls sound more like a loud cat purring, he's trying dammit!) interspersed! You've GOT to see him in action when you can! Oh, and we go for walkies and the other day I was wearing nothing but my nightshirt and the rat (aka Tigger aka El Tigre de Yip aka Hey You! Stop that!) saw a man coming down the sidewalk and tried to run after him growling? Thank goodness he was on his leash! I was so embarrassed at getting caught walking him in only my night shirt that I scooped up the bugger and ran for the apartment. Needless to say, he got no treat out of me after that escapade. He DID get a treat though for howling and growling at his own video! Spoiled rotten little brat....

I did warn you that I was shamelessly exploiting him.... and he is NOT a spoiled rotten little brat and if he is, it's all YOUR fault!

Grammar-Phobe, that's too funny about your puppy! Tigger does that too, in broad daylight... and when he's caught doing it and he realizes its his own reflection he goes and hides in Brite's bathroom. Watch out... it sounds like your puppy is going to turn out to be a little demon like Tigger. My condolences goes out to you... :)

And Brite, he IS a spoiled rotten brat, and you shamelessly spoil him as much as I do! As an example, will you kindly tell everyone on the board who it was who gives him Dentistixs in the morning, a Marrowbone in the afternoon, and a chicky treat in the evening? Hmmm? Well.. okay, the chicky treat usually comes from me, but that's because I'm trying to have a vid chat with someone at night and I'm bribing him with treats to get him out of the way during my vid chats, but still....

Oh... and shamelessly exploiting him is fine. I'm just surprised you haven't put up a video of him "doing" the slipper when he's feeling... er... frisky... er... I'll admit, the dog ain't right, but we still love him... kinda... sorta... sometimes... :)

I think those chicky treats are a major contributing factor to dog farts. Rancid ones. JJ

I have to agree. His "Silent but Deadly"... er... smells, can be terminal. Its astounding just how much and rancid a smell can come out of such a wee body! He can clear a room faster than a stinck bomb. It must be a talent. Or else his only form of defense... :)

The reason why there is no video of him doing obscene things to the bunny slipper is because you wont LET me video him doing obscene things to the bunny slipper!

And the whole treat thing... hey... I was just trying to break him of bad habits... :P

You forgot to add his endearing little habit of licking up your nose whenever he can get to it. He thinks its good for what ails you. Had a bad day and need some comforting? A lick up your nose will solve your bad day? You don't feel well, have a headache, etc.? A lick up your nose with make you feel better! Having a bad hair day? Well, okay.. so it won't fix the hair problem, but Hey! It'll make you forget about your hair! :) He's not a cat in a dog suit. He's a walking box of Kleenex. Trust me everyone, you will NEVER have to buy another box of tissues - ever - with him around. Which is a good thing, since you will need the extra dough for his dog treats (his new name should be El Tigre de Limpieza de Nariz...

No, found a site that does free translation of Spanish to English. Hey! I may be a blond who can't find her own door with a compass, arrows pointing the way to the door, and a huge sign that says: HERE IS YOUR DOOR DUM DUM!!!, but I DO know how to find things out online! Well... sorta... sometimes... when I get lucky... er... Have I mentioned that I'm not right either and I have to take meds for it? :)
