Blog Worthy

So, if you didn't know by now, my dogs are like my children. I talk about them all the time. Well, mostly when they're interesting, which is surprisingly, a lot. I have a couple Rufus stories from the past couple days that Nick considered "blog-worthy".

Rufus is quite a character. He has so much personality, it is ridiculous. He is definitely Nick's dog, and Nick has recently referred to him as his son and his sidekick. He can be quite a pain sometimes because he has a lot of energy and likes to get into trouble. But he can also be really cute and sweet and just adores Nick. And he loves nothing more than chasing his tire.

Anyway, I mentioned awhile ago that as an anniversary gift, my parents had given us M&Ms with our names on them (which were also used at our engagement party):



Well, Nick was eating some and there was one random red M&M in the bag that had the date December 10, 1979. Ya, that date has absolutely no significance to us whatsoever especially since it was before both of us were even born. He felt like it was some clue to some mystery we were supposed to solve, ha ha. You're probably wondering what it has to do with Rufus. Nick left said M&M on the table and Rufus proceeded to snatch it. Thankfully, I grabbed it before he ate it. But ya, he's a booger.

Then, last night, we let the dogs out after dinner and Rufus ran really fast over to the fence. I thought there might have been another dog or something, but he turned around and ran proudly towards us with something in his mouth. Ya, it was a dead rat! Thankfully, he didn't try to eat it or anything, and dropped it quickly so that Nick could dispose of it. We're pretty proud of our little rat-killing Terrier though! Because as the past has proven, I am NOT a fan of rodents in my backyard (See this post... and this one...and this one). So go Rufus!
