The Pacie-Nabber Strikes Again!

Things get very interesting when you have a basset hound & a baby living together under one roof. Boomer, our basset hound, is a great dog & has been such a blessing to our family...So sweet, so loving, so loud! The only time she misbehaves, and by "misbehaving" I mean barking, is when it is time for her to eat, she wants her dog bone, or if there is a cat lurking around the house. Other than that she is great.


Since Lizzie's home coming, we have noticed a new rebellious Basset. Turns out, Boomer is a sucker for a pacifier! On several occasions we have found a pacifier laying around the house in odd spots, half eaten, partially chewed on, completely destroyed. We are however beginning to notice a pattern...If one is left in the swing, Boomer finds it. If one is left in the bouncy seat, Boomer finds it. If one is left on a table, Boomer finds it. Sometimes I wonder if Boomer takes them away from Lizzie. HMMM??? Note to self, if the pacifier is not in Lizzie's mouth it must be out of reach of the basset.


Just the other day, Lizzie & I were in her room...I was folding laundry and Lizzie was swinging enjoying a good pacifier. Boomer was up front sleeping. When we finished we moved to the front of the house. Somehow Boomer found herself back in Lizzie's room for a short period of time, alone. Upon going back into Lizzie's room for a diaper change, we were greeted by a Basset leaving the scene of the crime and a pacifier that had been slightly chewed.




This is going to be a tough habit to break!!!
