When I was but a wee lad, we got a dog for Christmas. Not just any dog, but this dog. Named him spot because he had a couple of spots on him. Now, this dog was really messed up in his linage. He was part beagle and part bird dog. My dad always said he was a "Burgle". He didn't know whether to chase birds or point rabbits. He liked to chase cars and we could not keep him in a fence. He would climb the thing to escape. He would come home, every now and then, with his muzzle swollen up from a snake bite. As I mentioned, he liked to chase cars, just to chew on the tire. One day, a deputy sheriff was visiting his brother just down the road and when he left, he stopped in front of my house where me and spot were in the front yard. Of course spot took it as a great challenge to attack the patrol car tires. The deputy looked at me and said, "would you like me to stop him from chasing cars?". I said "sure". He opened the patrol car door and floored it. Spot was chewing on the front tire just in front of the door and he started hauling arse to escape his predicament. That door whacked him good and he went flying back into the front yard. Never chased a car again after that. My mother and neighbor lady would walk just about every evening in the summer. A couple of blocks around the neighborhood. They would laugh about spot. He would growl and act really menacing if another dog came out. But, he would make sure that they were between him and said dogs....just in case...lol More stories of "Spot", the dumbest dog on the planet to follow. :laughing:
Anyone else have a good story about such an animal?
