I have a new dog, not to be confused with my old dog. That worthless mutt dug up my coin garden and ran away, my old dog that is. I can just see him sitting on a beach in the Bahamas with his flowery Hawaiian shirt , two pairs of flip flops, leaned back on a reclining beach chair sipping on a pina colada with a little umbrella. Of course he is wearing his doggie shades and ogling all the bitches (proper name for a female dog) and sniffing hineys at random. That no good shiftless cur! God I miss him!...But I am writing about my new dog Digsee, formerly known as Dixie, name change pronounced the same but changed due to a family dispute. My family , not hers! She is part Basingi, an African breed She weighs about 12 pounds after a full meal, is multi-colored , brown, white and black and has an unusual tail that always stands up curved above her back and forms a perfect letter "C" above her back. She is equipped by nature to sight hunt smallgame and to dig them out of holes. She has very small feet, but long toenails and webbed feet. She has sight hunted all over my back yard and I fill in the holes in my spare time. She is getting dangerously close to my new coin garden! I found out she is a barkless breed after spending a hundred hours trying to teach her to speak ! I would say, "Speak", and she would just look at me like I was nuts! Smart dog! Instead of barking she has a unique voice called a yodel by those who breed Basingis. It sounds more like a cat meowing or maybe a term I like, "mewling"! Heck of a mewler!
But back to my Old dog, thatshiftless slobber hound that I loved so well, It is my fault he did what he did. I taught hiim to dig up coins. He was trying to teach me to sniff hineys, but I nearly got into real trouble at the beach one day. But that's another story too. Chevy was a rat terrier . Same color as Digsee, but no tail at all. He was born that way and maybe it gave him a complex? When the vet first met Chevy he was going to turn him around on the table and reached for his tail "Hmm", He said,"oops! no tail", and proceeded to swap ends with him much like gripping a bowling ball! It was them I first thought he may be just a little gay...the dog , not the vet, hmmmm, now that I think of it....nah, no way! Anyhow, every time we visited the vet after that Chevy would always back up to him and whine! The dog, not the vet would whine! He was a natural born humper!...once again the dog, not the vet! I never had him neutered and he would hump anything that wasn't moving. He spent hours wooing an old worn out basketball the kids left out in the yard. That was until he met my shiney new wheel barrow that was love at first sight! But this is about my new dog Digsee.
She is smart! Very smart! She can perform over a dozen obedience chores when and only if she wants to. She only wants to when there is no one around but me and her! I try to impress my friends by having her to perform to commands. She just sits with a blank look on her face,.....unless I tell her to sit, and then she stands up! Did I tell you she can talk? She can talk . But I'm not sure what language she is speaking? Her favorite toy is a small yellow dinosaur. She calls it a "flippy". I don't know why she calls it that, she just does. I can say,"Digseee, get your dinosaur" andshe just sits and stares at me like I'm .stupid...computer problems I'll finish tomorrow. Until then, Monty n
