39. What Strange Habits does Your Dog Have?

From Krista Mifflin, About.com Guide

Question: 39. What Strange Habits does Your Dog Have?

Answer: "I have two Lab mixes and one small Dachshund mix. The two olders are female and the latter is male.

The dachshund mix was found in our neighborhood, abandoned at 5 weeks old. It took a LONG time to get the older females to accept him. They tolerate him now, however, he is quite a character. Whenever we let them out, whenever we come home, he will go and find something to carry in his mouth. A sock, a shoe, some newspaper, or a large piece of wood from our stack at the fireplace. He also will wake us up by laying across our backs in the morning. He will not move until we make him do so. What is he doing??

He also watches t.v. for as long as we do. We think he is a keeper."
