Virginia

Huck did great in the car! It was a long trip. He just sat in the back seat, looking out the window the entire time. He also loved all the rest stops--getting to 'mark' territory all up and down the East coast was very exciting for him!


Now that we're here, Huck and his cousins the Shitzu/poodles, Buddy and Benji are getting along well. Huck has a lot more energy than them and will pester them so they will get angry and chase him. He loves their fenced in yard. Huck also loves having so many humans around to get affection from.
Huck had so much energy that he had to do the treadmill. The weather was bad and Mom was sick so it was 'treadmill trotting time' to burn off all that crazy terrier energy! It was very successful! Huck was asleep by 8 pm instead of his usually 11 or 12!

We went to Virginia Beach for New Year's. Huck and Missy the coon hound met again. Missy seemed to like Huck better than their Thanksgiving meeting when she would 'yell' at him to stop pestering her. Huck LOVED Belle, the pit mix. She is into the wrestling/chasing thing so they are best buds. The Rondorfs have a very cool home. The dogs could run around by the river while their humans chilled in the hot tub. Silly (read: stupid) Huck decided to jump in the pool instead of just drinking from it like the other dogs. He scared Mom to death because he couldn't find the stairs to get back out. Mom thought he was drowning but then he frantically waded back to the stairs as she was yelling and running for the pool to save him. The Rondorfs also had a cat and a little chinese crested, Jax. But I don't think Huck ever realized there was a cat in the house and that Jax even is a dog because he was so enamored with Belle.

I learned why some badbadbad humans use pits for fighting: they are excellent wrestlers. I have never seen a dog so expertly flip and pin Huck. It was very entertaining to watch. Huck just kept coming back for more!
