The Basset Hound Dictionary
LEASH: A strap which attaches to your collar, enabling you to lead your person where you want him/her to go.

DOG BED: Any, soft, clean surface, such as the white bedspread in the guest room or the newly upholstered couch in the living room.

DROOL: Is what you do when your persons have food and you don't. To do this properly you must sit as close as you can and look sad and let the drool fall to the floor or better yet, on their laps.

GARBAGE CAN: A container which your neighbors put out once a week to test your ingenuity. You must stand on your hind legs and try to push the lid off with your nose. If you do it right you are rewarded with margarine wrappers to shred, beef bones to consume and moldy crusts of bread.

BICYCLES: Two wheeled exercise machines, invented for dogs to control body fat. To get maximum aerobic benefit, you must hide behind a bush and dash out, bark loudly and run alongside for a few yards: the person then swerves and falls into the bushes, you prance away.

DEAFNESS: This is a malady which affects dogs when their person wants them in and they want to stay out. Symptoms include staring blankly at the person, then running in the opposite direction, or lying down.

THUNDER STORMS: This is a signal that the world is coming to an end. Humans remain amazingly calm during thunderstorms, so it is necessary to warm them of danger by trembling uncontrollably, panting, rolling your eyes wildly, and following at their heels.

WASTEBASKET: This is a dog toy filled with paper, envelopes and old candy wrappers. When you get bored, turn over the basket and strew the papers all over the house until your person comes home.

GOOSE BUMP: A maneuver to use as a last resort when the regular bump does not get the attention you require.

Smart Basset
A Basset walks into a butcher shop with a purse strapped around his neck. He walks up to the meat case and calmly sits there until it's his turn to be waited on. A man, who was already in the butcher shop, finished his purchase and noticed the Basset. The butcher leaned over the counter and asked the dog what it wanted today. The Basset put its paw on the glass case in front of the ground beef, and the butcher said, "How many pounds?" The Basset barked twice, so the butcher made a package of two pounds ground beef. He then said, "Anything else?" The Basset pointed to the pork chops, and the butcher said, "How many?" The Basset barked four times, and the butcher made up a package of four pork chops. The Basset then walked around behind the counter, so the butcher could get at the purse. The butcher took out the appropriate amount of money and tied two packages of meat around the Basset's neck. The man, who had been watching all of this, decided to follow the dog. It walked for several blocks and then walked up to a house where it began to scratch the door to be let in. As the owner opened the door, the man said to the owner, "That's a really smart Basset you have there."

The owner said, "He's not really all that smart. This is the second time this week he forgot his key."

Sleazy, your Dog ROCKS! Reminds me of mine, I have a Beagle/Hound Mix. When I saw your pics I could see he has the same habits as mine, he doesn't like his Doggy food so much, but throw him a piece of meat and look out! He also hates Squirrels. LOVE THESE DOGS!
