Cooler Temps Don't Bother Them


The past few days have shown some new developments with the hounds and dogs. Watson has finally accepted that there is another bloodhound in the house. He is now one of Cletus's best friends. I did not get a photo of it but it was official Saturday morning when Watson had his front paw on the side of Cletus's head when he was laying down, while licking and cleaning Cletus's face. They are also playing more outside one on one.

Strangest Thing Happened


This gives you a good idea what it looks like when the hounds and dogs want to come inside. They don't bark. Henry or Watson might scratch on the door window, otherwise they will sit quietly until I show up. In this case they saw me walking to the door and they came running from different directions. Is there a dog missing?

Not Much Went On Today


I cannot get over how well Cletus is settling in here. He came housebroken and I had a test for him today. I needed groceries plus a run to The Donut Bank to buy some celebration pastry to eat. I was gone for almost an hour, where I left him and all the adult hounds, and dog in the house with access to the backyard. When Ava saw me getting ready to leave, she grabbed her Nylabone and went into her crate without any command.
