Beagle Hide and Seek

29 June 2007 – Jack does not like squeezing through tight spaces or going by moving objects. So if a door is open only 2” he will just stand outside the door. He will not try to push it open because the movement scares him. If no one lets him through, then he will bark until someone comes and opens the door enough for him to get through. Miss Chloe, however, is afraid of nothing. She will just push that door open to get where she wants to go. If she pushes it open far enough, then Jack will go through too. The funny thing about all of this is that it is obvious that Chloe knows about this little quirk of Jack’s. When they are playing in the house and he is chasing her through the dining, kitchen, and living room areas, and she decides she has had enough, she will just go stand under the dining room table. She knows darn well he will not follow her under there because he does not want to squeeze through the chair legs. She just stands under there watching him. He stands outside of the table area and barks at her. “Come on Chloe. That’s not fair! Come out and play ‘Run, Jack, Run’ with me. ….. Please?”

Never a dull moment with these 2 around.
