The Drill
Thu May 10 2012

Every morning when we go out to feed the horses, we have to go through the wood shed which has a closed door at the far end. The dogs behave as if that door opens onto the magical kingdom of ….Disneyland. EVERY SINGLE TIME. They both have their favorite places in Disneyland. Ben heads for a pile of leaves where he heard a lizard or a mouse rustling days and days ago. He races there at top speed, just knowing that this time he is going to get the jump on whatever creature lives there. Sunny charges to her favorite place, which is a squirrel hole. It's a deep one. I'm sure if there was a plate nearby with a little cake on it that said… "Eat Me", she would wolf that down so as to shrink like Alice, and GET that squirrel. She checks it several times, just to be sure…. You never know, maybe this time her whole head will fit in. She needs to give it another try. They love it here in the country. And why wouldn't they? They have a season pass to Disneyland for Dogs.

    Disneyland for dogs, indeed! Ellie would have dug her way down that hole in about two seconds! Of course, she's about the same size as the resident squirrel. I don't know what she would have done when Mr. Angry Ground Squirrel came to run out his uninvited guest. She tends to overreact to pretty much everything, so I expect that she would immediately start "ki-yi-yi-ing," while simultaneously learning to run backwards out of the hole. She may act like a big, angry guard dog, but it's clearly overcompensation because she's afraid of anything bigger than her and everything is bigger than her, especially Mr. Angry Ground Squirrel.
