Because Alicia and Tom spent the night at our house last night, and because we have plans to go to the drive in tonight for the double feature, and because we generally bring our basset hound (typically to sit on my feet and keep them warm) it was decided en masse that we simply MUST have the basset de-stinkified.

Now, for those of you who haven't met Tracker -
Four feet long, not counting tail
90 pounds (+/- 5 pounds if he's managed to steal the girl's meals)
less than a foot tall, not counting that schnoz
world's most vain basset hound

There's only one statement I've yet heard that describes the odor of Tracker, and this was by our dear friend Seb: "That's not a scent, that's an emotion!"

"So today we got up early to drop Tracker off at the groomers. Now Tracker enjoys any chance to get a ride, especially in the van and most especially when his sisters aren't coming along with him. The minute he walked in, women swarmed to him and ooed and awed over him - which he adored. When we left him, he was fighting between the desire to follow his Mommy out the door and wanting to continue his neck rubbins.

Poor thing.

Damn dog's only been gone three hours and we're already missing him. Glad we can pick him up in a few more hours or this would get even more pathetic than it already is."

I remember a neighbor who had Basset hounds when I was a kid (Linda and Lucy) they had those glands fill up and they had to be drained...

Eeeeewwww...

The joys of a neutered male - no scent glands or anal sacs!

Because, really, the boy is "scented" enough to begin with!
