I was born on July 27, 1997. I've lived with my human pets since September 1997. It didn't take me long to show them who the boss is. I can tell by the way I'm treated, that they really love me. And who wouldn't, I'm really cute. Speaking of being cute, make sure to stop in and check out some of my cute pictures.

Being a Beagle, I have a nose for getting into trouble. That's ok though because when I get into trouble for something I just give my human pets "The Look." You know, that innocent, cute, I didn't do it look and all my trouble are behind me. The things I get into trouble form the most are: trying to steal from the trash can, stealing from may humans plates at dinner time, and stealing anything of the paper variety. Napkins and tissues are my favorites. With careful execution you too can be a good thief. My first food theft was a whole hamburger patty off my Mommy's plate, right out from between the bun!!!! Ok, once my Mommy stopped being surprised over that one, she scolded me. But I gave her "The Look" and all was ok, I lived to steal food another day.

Now, for some of my favorite activities. They include: eating, sleeping, eating, begging for food, playing, eating, licking my pets in the face, and of course eating. I like to stay active, so my pets take me to play at the park. When I was younger, I would run and run until I wore my pets out. Now I like to smell every blade of grass. I have discovered something new to do at the park. Play in the sand! As soon as I feel the sand between my paws, I start running like a mad dog. Running, rolling, and playing keep away with my pets. We live in Kentucky so this is the only place I get to play in the sand. I've been trying to show my pets how much I love to play in the sand. You'd think my human pets would take the hint and take me on vacation to the beach. No luck yet, but I'll keep trying.

My pets moved to a new house when I was a year old. They were concerned I wouldn't take the move well. I have to admit it was a little scary at first. But I showed them what a big girl I could be. I got to visit my new house each day the week before the big move. My favorite part about moving was getting to go for rides everyday. We also got to eat out a lot, and you know what that means, begging for treats at the drive-thru windows!!!!! Humans are such pushovers for a cute face. It doesn't get any better than that. Anyway, I decided that as long as they take me with them, I don't care where we live. Of course, if I had my way, we'd live someplace warm year around where my pets wouldn't have to leave me to go to work.

One of the best things about my house is I now have a fenced in back yard. Anytime I want to play, I just paw on the back door and out I go! I even talk my human pets into playing with me. Even though I'm getting older, I still like to play "Indy Dog" as my pets like to call it. Its where I run around like a mad dog as fast as I can. I enjoy doing this in the back yard, in the sand, and of course it's the most fun when I just got a bath and I'm trying not to be dried off.

I enjoy my indoor activities as well. I love to play ball and rope. Of course, my pets have to play those things with me. My new favorite toy is my tricky treat ball. If you roll it just right, treats just fall right out. Isn't that the greatest? I also like chasing ice cubes around the kitchen floor. Hey, but I can always be talked into a nap.
