After a long day of recording the strides of various horses over a 108 foot stretch of an arena, we were all a little nuts. Thereby, came the running of the dauchshund. The data will be added to my daughter’s science project. I hope her teacher has a sense of humor. (Yes, that’s moi sniggering in the background.)

That’s cute, that little guy trying to keep up. Is that your hound?
I had a dauchshund, many years ago - his full pedigreed name was “Heidi’s Little Buddy,” but he was just “Buddy” to us. He lived outside the fenced-in area of the backyard at the Bakerview house, and Jigs and Morgan (the Yorkshire Terriers) lived on the inside. Periodically, the three of them would meet at the perimeter and snarl ferociously at each other (they never got along - Jigs and Morgan, being brothers, would gang up on Buddy - sort of like “the sisters” in The Shawshank Redemption. In fact Jigs and Morgan were even gay, albeit a canine incestuous twist on that sexual inclination; I won’t describe how I know this, but I’m sure anyone reading this can well imagine.)
Buddy, however, had freedom - the full run of the property, which was a just under an acre. And he made good use of it - he literally wore paths around the house. The yard outside the fence was like a doggie freeway system, with off-ramps and on-ramps leading to his various hangouts, etc.
Anyway, cute vids. Wouldn’t it have been cool if we had been able to produce video with audio for our science projects at BHS? Would have added a whole new dimension to Bargie’s IPS class.
Oh, yeah - I forgot to sign my previous coment, and it just occurred to me you don’t know who “right_reason” is (although you could doubtless deduce the identity from the context). I had even forgotten that this was the screen-name I chose for this particular Google account (one among many).

That is friggin’ awesome.
ooh, how cute!
So, was the study a success? Did the dauchshund’s data help? That was disturbingly cute…
