I went home today for lunch and let the dogs out. I went inside and hear this scratching at the door, I look out and there is Fred doing his "what is Alice into" dance. I see her in the back and she is kind of shaking her head. I call her and she looks and me with a dead mouse in her mouth. I tell her to drop it but instead she decides to not look at me (then I wont' notice) so she gives me her backend, I walk up and she drops it. I put a bowl over it because I am not touching it, brushed her teeth with her liver toothpaste and now I have a dead mouse with a bowl over it for my neighbors to see. I can't handle dead animals at all, of any kind.


The great pleasure of a dog is that you may make a fool of yourself with him and not only will he not scold you, but he will make a fool of himself too

She turnned her backside to ya! hahahaha She is so clever. I don't do dead either. So when BF is out of town and any if my kids brings me something I make them take it back out side and let them dispose of it. Probely not a real good solution but it's better than have little corpses around the house for weeks.

There is no joy greater than being owned by a Rattie!!

Mine have been into birds this year - dead, alive it doesn't matter.

My daughter screamed from upstairs the other day "MOM - pixie brought a dead bird upstairs under your bed." EWWW!! Glad she saw Pixie doing it!! Yesterday, they had a live one out in the yard they were "playing" with. Like you, I put a bucket over it and put the dogs inside so I could do something with it.

Gotta love the prey drive in them!!

Just be glad Fred isn't into hunting too, then...
At least she didn't manage to sneak it inside and put it on your bed, like Molly did one time to me...talk about gross!!
Some of these guys have an amazing prey drive...there's nothing you can really do to stop it, either. It's what they were bred to do, afterall.

Hendryx is a hunter. The multiple tags on his collar interfere with his stalking technique, but if he can catch and kill something, he's proud of himself.

Of course, I'm not squeemish (biology tends to deal with a lot of death). I just wrap it up and leave it for the trash guys (small corpse) or dig a hole and let the local insect life deal with it (bigger corpse).

His name is Hendryx! He's a rat terrier! OK!

Haha - I love it when Fred "tells on" Alice!! But she was really just doing what comes natural for a rat terrier....worst thing I've had to deal with is when Mitzy brought a dead frog into the bedroom. I didn't know what it was and pulled it out of her mouth - froze in shock and screamed for Bill to come take it!!!

"I put a bowl over it because I am not touching it,"

I'm just sitting here giggling....you put a bowl over it!   I do not know why that action has caused my giggle box to turn over but for some reason it has.  Thanks for the laugh.
