Whew. Tuesday was not the best of days. Started out oversleeping….damn this not falling asleep until the sun comes up is kickin’ my ass!!
Anyway – late – wanna check emails….WTF?!?! No DSL. Oh yippee skipee! Take the Tech Service number down (cause I didn’t have 1 hour to wait for someone to answer the phone) and head off to work.
Get to work….every hour felt like four. Oh. My. Goodness…….suffice to say – not a fun day at the office.
Then, driving home – one hell of a storm. Black black sky. Lightening that was surreal. Wind? Oh yeah, we had wind.
Get home and it looks like a tornado hit. Trees down, everything everywhere.
But the icing on the cake? Yeah, it was the note on the kitchen table from the neighbors kind enough to let Cody in this afternoon.
“Tammi,
We let Cody in at 3:30pm. We delayed it because he ate 2 rabbits and we wanted to make sure he didn’t get sick.
We can explain later….I think!
Love
E”
HE ATE 2 RABBITS?!?!?!?!
Well, I guess that explains why he hasn’t been eating his dry food so much.
Yick. The least he could have done was let me roast them for him.
Damn Dog.
ADDITION: Sissy reminded me that I forgot to mention that this whole thing is really all my fault. The first two toys I bought Cody were a stuffed squirrel and a stuffed rabbit. They are his favorite toys. Yeah - I'm training a killer.......
Posted by Tammi at September 15, 2005 07:45 PMYee hee! I was waiting for this! I kept coming back to see if you were on line yet. ;-)
Posted by: Bou at September 15, 2005 07:48 PMhee hee hee... as I said - why would he want dry dog food when he could have fresh rabbit...
Posted by: Teresa at September 15, 2005 08:08 PMI still think that the neighbors trained him to kill the rabbits for them!!
Posted by: Sissy at September 15, 2005 08:52 PMpoor wabbit.
Cody does what comes naturally. Last week, Houdini was running around the house with something in his mouth.
I stupidly thought it was one of his toys.
It was a bird.
I had to let John deal with it!
Posted by: Beth at September 15, 2005 08:52 PMI will say once I was let him in from playin' with the Bunny's that I was totaly cravin Rabbit for Dinner...reminds me of a bumper sticker dh's Uncle had "Save the Rabitt Population...Eat Domesticated Rabitts"
Cody's a sweety...prolly doesn't even know he hurt anything...the damn stuff just tasted good...lol.
Oh, and you didn't tell everyone about the stuffed rabbit and stuffed squirel!!
:-P
Posted by: Sissy at September 15, 2005 09:53 PMblech raw rabbit.....
Posted by: ArmyWifeToddlerMom at September 15, 2005 09:54 PMI better never take Lance to Florida then, cause his favorite toy is a stuffed gator.
Cody was probably just playing with the bunnies but got a little rough, bit one and then tasted the blood.
Posted by: Machelle at September 16, 2005 05:45 AMMaybe next time we have a bonfire, we can send Cody out to pick up supper!
Posted by: TNT at September 16, 2005 08:05 AMSorry - you can't claim that you caused him to do this Tammi *grin* To you the two things look nearly the same... both LOOK like rabbits. To Cody they are completely different. He identifies by smell not looks. That's why even though he will play with the stuffed bunny - he doesn't try to eat it. Now a REAL rabbit - that's a whole nother issue!
Posted by: Teresa at September 16, 2005 05:23 PMUh - oh - rabbits are the best source of intestinal worms for dogs & cats. So you know what that means. . .
Posted by: Karen at September 17, 2005 12:40 AMWelcome back on-line (sorry I'm a little late), and I hope you can get Cody to settle down some. It would be better if he brought them to you than ate them.
Posted by: vw bug at September 17, 2005 06:47 PMOn the bright side, Cody got on fine with our cats.
Jake is the same way. The big, lumbering, sweetie-pie has a good half-dozen kills to his name. Mostly particularly-stupid birds, but at least one rabbit and even a woodchuck.
