I have often wondered what Bob the Beagle would have done had he ended up in a family that forced him to live outside, hunt, or do something to earn his keep. A family that didn't understand he is to be rewarded with a Beggin Strip for letting a human pet him or for going to the potty or just as a routine bedtime snack.Bob is cold-natured, or pretends to be, so he has a fleece jacket for cold days when he accompanies me to the post office and for afternoon naps, he has not one, but TWO beds tucked under Dennis' desk, complete with a blanket. It makes legroom for Dennis a little sparse, but Bob is certainly comfortable.
I guess we all eventually end up doing what we are supposed to do, in the places we are destined to be, with the companions that are meant for us. And after 7 1/2 years, Bob has definitely got us trained very well.
Or, we think we are........but he may have a little more educating to do before he gets us exactly the way he wants us!
Gotta go........I think my typing is disturbing Bob's nap.
