Dawgs!!

We have two dogs: Biserka and Beau. A Bouvier (Google it) and a Bloodhound.

We have a large yard, and we keep Beau in a large fenced part of our yard, called the Dog Yard, for a good amount of the day. Beau likes to chase things -moving things, smelly things, things going down the road at 50 mph, any things. He is a scent hound who loves to run, run, RUN! We let Beau out into the big yard early mornings and late evenings. He romps with Biserka, jumps over the pasture fence and heads down to the creek to make his rounds, and is a general busy-body the entire time.

Biserka spends part of her time in the Dog Yard, and part of it in the big yard. When we feel that she's had enough of Beau and his 120-lb shenanigans, we separate the two.

A couple of weeks ago we became recipients of two large pans of meat. "Dated" meat. A pan of hotdogs and a pan of hamburgers, that had spent more months in a freezer than was fit for human consumption. We're not talking a few hotdogs and burgers, we're talking pounds and pounds of leftover meat, to be fed to Biserka and Beau. Since the weather here in rural Kansas has been far below the freezing point, we have been storing these pans of meat in the bike barn, and doling out a few burgers or hotdogs each meal for our pups. (They will never go back to dry food, I anticipate.)

Last night, that Spouse o'Mine neglected to close the bike barn doors after he was finished doing whatever project he was doing. I discovered this, this morning when I went out (5:30 am?) to let Beau out to romp, and to feed the two dogs. Oh, dear. All the meat was gone. Lots and lots of burgers. All in Biserka. (Because Beau was in his Dog Yard all night.)

I figured she would die today.

Anyway, we let Beau out into the big yard this evening, and he with his bloodhound nose, went right for some "hot spots" around the yard. And Biserka got REALLY defensive w/ him, even fighting him.

Hmm....

Apparently, we have a yard full of buried hamburgers.

yippee.

I wonder if they will grow into Hamburger Bushes? LOL
