BeagleBlogging: A Dog and His Cowhide

Here’s a picture of Beauregard carrying around his comfort cowhide, the remains of an old Halloween costume.

Beau has a love hate relationship with toys like this. Whenever he’s stressed about something he likes to put large fluffly things in his mouth and run around the house with them, mewling pitiably. The first thing he did when we brought him home was find and lay claim to a giant draftdodger, which stayed in his mouth for a couple of hours.

But when he gets over whatever’s bothering him, he sits down and slowly, methodically tears his stuff to pieces. This cowhide has another week of life, maybe.

Beagles are weird.
