I volunteered to houndsit my sister's basset Bucky for a couple days while they were out of town for Thanksgiving. He quickly made himself at home on my new rug in the family room.
Any time we put him over in the hemmed off area I created in the hallway leading to the garage, he cried like a big baby. He's accustomed to sleeping with my sister, all 60 lbs of him that is constantly shedding little white hairs on everything. And the drool - yuck. Our little dogs can be yappy, but at least they're a manageable size and don't shed.
Needless to say, our dogs were not amused with this slobbering, rather oafish intruder to their doggy domain. With the hound on the loose in our house, they tended to spend a lot of time snuggled up on holiday throws atop the beds where Bucky couldn't jump up and join them. The older daughter's chorkie was the most vocal with his dislike as you can see in the video below, even when we put chorkie in his kennel so he'd leave Bucky alone.
