Scoundrels Unite!

Anna, sounds like Mr. Barney knows exactly which of your buttons to push! I have a little Jack Russell who really knows how to stir up the horses next door!

I have some dogs around that are scoundrels all day & night.  Actually, I think it's their owners that are scoundrels, leaving them out all hours of the day & night!  Hope you're having a relaxing Friday in Phoenix! 

Hi Anna - I don't know, he looks more like a scamp or a rascal to me, which is much worse than a mere scoundrel. Rehabilitation into polite society is always a possibility, but you'll need treats.

Anna,

I thank you the laugh today, and Mr. Barney is a precious scoundrel nevertheless.  Dick's comment has me laughing also, and definitely treats cure a lot of transgressions.  A

I know exactly what you mean.  Glad you got to relax a little and enjoy the wonderful weather in Arizona.

Our cat likes to sit up on top of our backyard wall and bait the neighbors dogs. It works everytime. She just sits up on that wall and lets them bark at her. It's like she's telling them, "yeah that's right, I'm way up here and you're way down there and there isn't a darn thing you can do about it dog!"

I picture your little guy to be the one I hear giving a big dog next door, a run for it's money across my woods.  I can't see them, but every day I hear that little guy giving the big guy hell as they run up and down the fence line.

Sounds like your little guy has the neighborhood pooches into a network for their common good

Scoundrels and Mischief Makers often show up while wearing an obscene amount of fur.  I have a couple of them that think my home is their's.  Reuben, the peach colored male, is busy channeling his "Inner Simba."

Aloha Anna,

Mr Barney a scoundrel? It sounds so criminal. How can that cutie be a scoundrel, impossible. Now provocateur sounds more appropriate.

a hui hou,

 Good morning Anna. It seems as if sometimes it is those little yapping dogs that start the whole neighborhood yapping. I have to agree with you, it is not relaxing.

Anna, you were rescued and were able to enjoy the jacuzzi! And the neighborhood returned to calm!

Fun times Anna!

We have a ring leader or two here who will notice a leaf out of place and get the whole pack singing along a few times a day, not good if I happen to be on the phone at the time.

I was waiting to hear that he jumped in with you. Sounds like a mostly relaxing but entertaining time. 

Haha, I can see how that would definitely disturb such a nice morning.  Very cute picture!

Well let's hope Roger, Pat, and Mr. Barney never get together or there will be quite the hullabaloo!

Anna, well, if Roger, Mr. Barney and I ever do get together, I'll have to make sure that Willie the Labradoodle comes along, too.  Now that would make a fun ActiveRain meetup!

Anna, Mr. Barney is absolutely adorable but does he know how to swim or does he get mini swimmies to keep him afloat in that jacuzzi! BTW, he was telling the neighborhood doggies about your pool party!

Anna, I have 3 little scoundrels! And yes, they can stir up the canine neighborhood, too!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Our little Roxy can make a lot of noise when she wants to.
