The squirrel that haunts the dog! 11-16-08

So, for those of you who know our dog, you know that she is a bit of a "nut case" to say the least. She loves chasing things like deer, squirrels, cats, raccoons. On any given moment she "sees" things and gets all freaked out. So, in the fall, about the time that the walnuts are falling the squirrel comes around. He taunts Chili, jumping from limb to limb, sometimes sitting right out on the curb. Staring at her with his little squirrel eyes all the while saying to himself...nananana you can't get me.


The squirrel in the walnut tree in the front yard.
Sometimes he moves to the back yard, or maybe it's a cousin. But, he likes to taunt Chili back there to. He runs along the fence post, sometimes hiding on the other side, peeking his little squirrel head over the fence to see where Chili is. On some days he's full of squirrel "chatter" and I swear he's screaming obscenities at her.
It's quite comical!
