The Great Adventures of Bottom the Bassett Hound

Thursday 31 May 2012

Thursday's here! I get to go for a walk today. I have a choke collar and that keeps me from pulling my creator too much, I had a leather collar but, it really wasn't right for me. My collar holds all my identification and vaccinations so people know exactly who I am and what vaccinations I have had especially Rabies. To read more about this click on this link: http://www.cdc.gov/rabies/ So, Make sure your pet is vaccinated and wheres a collar like me! Whoof! Have a super day! Bottom:)

Is it Wednesday Already? Howl! Oh How I love to Howl and Bark! Did you ever wonder why dogs bark? I do because I like to talk. I have different barks just because there are different things I want to say. If you like to read more about it, check out this link: http://www.k9magazine.com/why-do-dogs-bark-10-dog-barks-translated/ Remember, if a dog growls at someone there is a reason and never approach a dog who's teeth are beared. Have a super day! Bottom:)

Tuesday is here! Had to crawl underneath the covers today because of the Thunderstorms, Geesh, I don't know what that noise is anyway but, it really scares me! Don't mind the Thunder but, what is up with the flashing light ? I know when a storm is coming though, I guess, you can call it, "Doggy Radar" If you want to read an article about it, here is the link: http://science.howstuffworks.com/nature/climate-weather/storms/animals-predict-weather.htm Make sure to bring your pets to a warm, inside area during a storm. Have a safe, weather free day Everyone! Bottom:)

It's Monday!  "My name is Bottom and I am a Tail Chaser"  Well at least I did when I was a puppy! Here's an interesting fact, Most Dogs chase their tails when they are puppies because it is something that comforts them. Tail chasing or "Whirling" as humans call it can be a problem when a dog has Fleas or some other type of bug or parasite. If you want to read more about it, check out this website;

Sunday 27 May 2012

Peaceful Sunday Everyone! In a dog's life the passage of time is very insignificant unless you are counting meal times. We usually wait for you to come home, rarely knowing whether it will be the last time or not. We jump and Bark to welcome you, it's like a special parade and our happiness is never ending. If you never thought about adopting a pet, why not think about that today, reflectively, and make a fellow friend of mine joyous! Have a perfect day everyone! Bottom:)

Friday 25 May 2012

It's Saturday! Yippy! Feeling good, feeling strong! Whoops, just tripped over my ears..With the weather so hot, please make sure your pets are well hydrated and out of the sun. It is easy to leave them in the car and forget that they can suffer dehydration too. Give your pet a hug today! I just got one! Have a great Saturday! Bottom:) Hey, Maybe you can drop me a note on facebook, just say "Hi" or bark at me! Here's the link:http://www.facebook.com/#!/Harnap

1006 Pageviews today! Howl! Bark! Thanks Everyone!

Happy Friday! and Happy Memorial Day Weekend to my American Friends! BBQ away! Yum..A big Happy Birthday Shout out to my Creator's step daughter Camille! Wow, I think that's it.  Howl! Please make sure that your pets are not within distance of your BBQ when it's on because we will eat the hot food that hits the ground as well. And for those of you who still use charcoal, make sure your pet does not get into any hot coals. We are curious! So T.G.I.F. everyone and enjoy the day! Bottom:)

Thursday 24 May 2012

It's Thursday! Time to get my yearly veterinarian checkup today. I like my vet but, I always get scared and pee on the floor of her office. Don't be scared my fellow pet friends, be healthy and get an annual checkup like me! And all you humans out there, have you had your checkup too? Why don't we schedule them together, I bet that humans get a treat too when they go! We all need healthy hearts, dogs and humans alike. See your doctor or Vet and have a terrific day!

Wednesday 23 May 2012

It's Wednesday! The middle of the week again. To me, since I am after all a dog, the middle of the week is inconsequential. All my days are pretty much the same as time is not a factor. Although, that being said, I do know when I have my meal times but, I never know when my Creator will be home so, I am there as always wagging my tail with a happy face, a warm smile and that non-judgemental look. So, that being said, please Have a peaceful start to your day, keep your eyes on the road! And I'll see you when you come home! Bottom:)

Tuesday 22 May 2012

"'Rain, Rain, Go away, come back another day" It's Tuesday and well you guessed it! The crazy thing is that I love the sound of the pitter patter of the rain coming down against the windows and pressing my nose up against the glass but, when it comes to doing my business outside well, It's just yucky! Make sure your pet is nice and dried off when they come in from the rain. Have a perfect day everyone! Bottom:)

Monday 21 May 2012

Happy Victoria Day Canadian Friends! I just love these holidays! It means that I get to do all kinds of kool stuff, like run around the back yard without a leash and bury small milk bones. Last year, I went in the Brook to cool off and they had to give me a bath cause I smelt like fish! Remember, always bathe your pet with pet shampoo so you don't harm us! Have an exhilarating day! Bottom:)

Sunday 20 May 2012

Sunday! "Morning has Broken"...Boy, Do I like to sing! Howl! Doing any planting today? Please don't let me or my fellow pets eat the seeds or any planting products you may be using. We are good company though, we like to watch and mess up what you just did. Hole digging, I have a bone to hide! lol...Have a peaceful day! Bottom:)

Saturday 19 May 2012

It's Saturday, Saturday! "Saturday Night's alright!" Whoops there I go with the songs again...Plenty of things to do today and maybe if my creator's not busy, we can go out for a drive, the wind in my ears...wonderful! Just make sure your pets are safe and belted up in the car, we can get hurt too! Have a great day everyone! Bottom:)

Friday 18 May 2012

Thursday 17 May 2012

Howdy Hi! Everyone! It's Thursday! No it's not Howdy, Doody, It's Bottom! lol...I am getting my nails clipped today, buffed and polished. Do you know how important that is to me? Only be careful if you are going to do it to one of my friends cause they can get hurt. If their toe nails are Black, you might want to consider taking them to the Vet's office to have them cut because they can bleed, bad...ooh, I don't like the sight of blood. Well, Happy day everyone! Bottom:)

Wednesday 16 May 2012

Is it Wednesday already! Yes, Whoof! It is! Do you know that it is Flea and Tick season? I don't like it much myself but, my creator takes very good care of me with the medication I need. Did you take your pet yet for an examination by a licensed veterinarian? Mine is very nice although, I still shake when I see her but, I go anyway! Have a wonderful day everyone! Whoof! Bottom:)
