Squirrel Hurdles
Welcome to the Blogville Squirrel Hurdles Event. Our athletes have been screened by the Olympic Commitee for bugs and are prepared for the event. While many would prefer to increase the odds of catching squirrels by having a nice clear approach to the squirrel most know their are obstacles and often hurdles that must be cleared to reach the elusive squirrel. Thus squirrel hurdles was born.

Our next canidate is Goose of Gospel of Goose
Next to compete Lassiter and Benjamin of Lassiter Chase

Pawsome Event! Whew, we are so tired from all the preparation, chasing and jumping to catch that dang squirrel. We did have a lot of fun with it though. Some very stiff competition from one and all! You did a fantastic job as our Host.

Sounds like fun!! Too bad we were being lazy with Eva as I was away for a bit...so I don't think she's fit to do any squirrel hunting!
ReplyDeleteLooks like Dante is the only one with real squirrels to hurdle! Go Dante!

An awesome event! Look at everyone jumping!! Thank you for hosting!
ReplyDeleteWow! These are some terrific competitors! Squirrel Hurdles are especially tricky to do which is probably why you don't see any basset hounds. I don't know about Molly the Wally actually being in a tree though, that could be considered cheating and be a disqualification. LOL!
ReplyDeleteGot me drooling lookin at all those SQ's :P My prey drive just went into 5th gear! NOMMERS! I sure hope Mom can whip together some Squirrel stew for din din tonight. Y'all got my tastebuds prepped! :D Great action everyone! Wahoooooo! Go Get Em! :D Gosh this is fun! Thanks for Hosting this terrrific event! :D
