Basselope Huntin'


Well, on Wednesday, we ALL got groomed.


Luckily, we all survived. But just barely.


Since we had to endure dat torture, I told Brinley we needed to have some fun! Besides bike ridin (ME), barkin TV (her), walks and playing in da backyard. 


We needed an advenshure! So I suggested we go on a hunt for da elusive basselope. Ya know, dat famous ferocious beast?? 


Brinley wuz game to go! I told her I'd heard dat in ancient times (like 2005), basselopes roamed the backyard. Momma has talked about em.


Finley said those were basset hounds, not basselopes. And that I wuz not gonna find any out there, all I'd find wuz lizards.  


But we didn't let her discourage us, we went bravely exploring through the flowers, looking for a basselope. Suddenly, we heard a rustling in the bushes. 


OMD, I spotted a basselope!


Hmm, not so ferocious as I had imagined. Ackshually, kinda cute.


So I sniffed her up.


She says her name are Rosebud and she wants to be my pal.


Brinley gave her the side eye - just don't think ya can control the TV changer Rosebud. 


Then we heard more rustling - OMD, Rosebud has a sister. Who are also named Rosebud. OMD, this are gonna be even more confusing than telling me and Brinley apart!


P.S. Da momma highly recommends the book The Last Basselope - speshully if ya has kids or grandkids. Ya know Opus the penguin?? Yeah, it are by that guy. She and grandma are big fans of his and both got these Rosebud stuffies for themselves. So it looks like I'll be sharing my bed wif a basselope!

  3. I don't understand. All the basselopes are female-there are no little basselopes. How do they clone themselves?

  5. Wow! They look just like squeaky toys! (Do they squeak?) My Florida associate Miss Charlee says her human has a jackalope at her house.

    We'll have to take a look at those books. They seem like something my ghostwriter would like.
