Dog vs Ninja Rabbit

Tweet

Our dog has a friend over today. I love it when she can have play dates. It means she'll be thoroughly worn out by bedtime. There's just one thing I forgot... ...the bunny. I hear barking and I ignore it, because I'm eating and I don't want to put my spoon down. Then it hits me...Jay's friend is outside. With the rabbit. I run to the carport to find the dog, Cee, standing on top of the wire rabbit cage, barking down at Marshmallow Cookie. I've heard before that rabbits can, literally, be scared to death. I'm not sure how true that bit of info is. I should look into it. At any rate, I expected the rabbit to be running in circles or otherwise freaking out, if not dead. He was fine. In fact, he was stretched out and relaxing; gazing up at the dog with an expression of disdain. Like, "You stupid mutt. What are you doing?!" So, even though Marshmallow could care less about a strange dog barking in his face, I've been doing some training on Cee today. Every time he steps into the carport, I jump out at him and yell, "NO!" He's starting to tuck tail and run as soon as he hears the door crack open and I'm getting a lot of exercise running back and forth! As to the rabbit? I'm upgrading him to "Ninja" status. He's just that calm and collected in the face of danger.
