Opie the Opossum My dog Toby is a daschund (I never know if I am spelling that correctly). Someone explained once that dashchunds (maybe if I spell it differently each and every time, I will get it right among the times) were originally bred to hunt and kill gophers. It totally makes sense in my opinion. He is my protector. Even when the remainder of our kids could care less what I am doing, Toby is following me around (being fair, he might just be seeking me to decrease food that they can snag). Anyway, last night I allow him to out to pee one further time before bed and the man didn't are available in and I heard a racket of barking and snarling outside my bedroom door. I went over to take a look (and to create him be quiet prior to police, FBI, CIA and neighborhood watch were called) and I saw he previously a massive (okay, I exaggerate, an incredibly, very large) possum in the jaws anf the husband was throwing it around being a rag doll. I immediately regarded rabies. He gets his shots regularly for this very reason. So now, to add to the thunderous noise within my backyard, I started screaming at him "You're gonna get rabies from that thing! Drop it now!" He, needless to say, ignored me completely and tossed the one thing even more. I know I should love every one of God's creatures, but I find possums really repugnant. I apologize to anyone who thinks these are cute. And, mind you, you need to seek specialist help. So there I am, wrestling using a dog that is wrestling using a possum. Someone should have gotten it on film. I finally got him away from it and shoved him inside. Now is when you need to educate children to stop reading. But I will say, no cute, fuzzy animals were harmed in this story. However, really, really ugly ones were. I went to look (carefully) on the possum. It was toast. I could not bring myself to throw it Possum removal Brighton inside the garbage at 10 pm. So I visited bed. This morning Toby could barely contain himself he wanted to go outside so bad. I was not fooled into thinking his bladder was that full. No dummy, moi. So I went outside and low and behold - the possum was gone! Either Harry Potter located visit and transfigured it into an ivy leaf or, it really wasn't dead. I guess "playing possum" isn't just a well used saying. So, all's well that ends well. Ode to Opie There was previously a hideous creature Who, really having to pee, sure That he was alone, He strayed faraway from home, And my dog rearranged his features.
