Rhino Dog secret weapon!

Dieselmh · 08-07-2006, 09:42 AM

As most of you know, there has been a severe shortage of rhino dogs at the Dieselmh household.

I blame it on hot weather, no rain, and just plain bad luck, but it's probably God's way of telling me that he doesn't like the idea of cathing his small, armored critters and puttin' stickers on them. Now, I'm not the type of person to just speak up and tell God to STFU, but when I want to do something, I'm a pretty determined person, so operation Rhino Dog is still in full swing.

Now, since I can't really make it rain, and since my neighbors have a cease and desist order against my patented naked rain dance, I've had to resort to more drastic measures. I can almost hear the rhino dogs trembing already. Enter the secret weapon:

DUDLEY!!!!!

Yep, that's right. I'm in the process of training my very own rhino dog dog.

He's AKC registered Basset, so he should be super good at rhino dog sniffin! One of Cathy's coworkers spent close to $400 on him, then decided that he didn't really make a good house dog, and her kids got tired of messing with him, so she GAVE him to us. Yes sir, the only thing better for catching rhino dogs than an AKC registered basset is a free AKC registered basset.

Here he is, trying to get his sniffer working.

Rhino dogs beware, the end is near!

Bassett's are the cats, of the dog world. They sleep, eat, crap, and bay. Does that about cover it?

Good lookin' pooch!

For some reason you having a basset hound makes perfect sense. And that his name is Dudley is priceless.

Good looking dog. I feel for the rhino dog population now.

Oof. I just had a mental image of the chop of you holding a burger(and mustard stained shirt) and dancing naked.

Not an image I'd like to have.

BTW, that is a very cute... err... vicious

looking rhino dog tracker you have. Do you have any woods near your house? Around here they burro into banks or soft ground. I don't have a clue how to get them out of the holes though.

Yeah, for some reason, he just looked like a Dudley, so that's what I called him. Even though he's technically Cathy's, everone says he looks like my dog. I'm not sure if that's an insult or not.

We've got about 3 acres of land, most of which is wooded. We're going to have the back "yard" fenced in, which is about an acre or so of land, and about half of it is still wooded. He'll have plenty of room to sniff and dig.

Mantis, you should get one. He's really easy going, and when he's in the house, he mainly just eats, sleeps, and pees. Just like Roc Doc said.

He's already housebroken, unless you leave him in the house for too long. Now when he gets outside, it's a different story. His nose hits the ground, and he wants to investigate EVERYTHING!

Oh, but they don't like to be left alone. When he yelps, you can hear him from a long way off. Your neighbors would probably hate you more for having him than they do for your cruisers!

You have to grab their tail as they run into the hole (or dig a new one), lift it up, then poke them in da butt with a stick. They tense up and release their hold on the tunnel. Yank.

They can dig a hole faster than most of us plus sized Americans can run.

Definitely going to need the fence. My cousin swears all basset hounds have a switch in their head that disengages their brain any time they smell something "interesting". All it takes is for them to run across a fresh rabbit trail and off they go, deaf to the world no matter how much you call them.

Yeah, I'm already seeing that in him. When he's sniffin', he doesn't care what you tell him. He's a little more responsive to being pulled across the yard by his leash though!

Rhino Dog = Armadillo.

I guess that thing about pets looking like their owners is true.

You could've at least strung her along on some BS story for a while first.
