We Survived the Easter Bunny

As you know we are veterans of the Santa visits, but this Easter Bunny thing was unchartered territory. Dogs chase bunnies. It is the way of the world. We have a very friendly relationship with humans, so this Santa guy is nothing but cool. A human sized bunny give you pause.

When we arrived, there was literally a bunny trail to follow to reach the big guy. Along the path were vendors of different whole foods kind of companies trying to give out samples of their food or treats. Not a bad deal as we got to try out several different kinds of treats along the path to see the great bunny. We knew Katy was nervous when she left huge crumbs behind. The doggy vacuum has never been known to leave any traces of anything resembling food behind. This large bunny visit had her spooked.

When we finally arrived at the Bunny Den we found a very friendly bunny and lots of dogs hanging out trying to figure out what we were doing there posing with a bunny. Would our friends find out, what would the neighbors think, etc? However, most of us knew we had no choice. We were going to pose with the bunny. Now I bet you don't know this, but the Easter Bunny wears high top sneakers. Who knew he could fit his big bunny paws into high tops, but they must be magically made to keep those paws toasty warm.

Our picture hasn't arrived yet, but we will share it when it does. We just wanted all of you to know, he isn't such a scary dude after all. For a bunny, he seems to understand how to hold you for the picture without scaring you or squishing too hard. This is good because I can see Mom wanting another trip down the bunny trail.

  5. Hmmm there is something not right with dogs posing with a bunny rather than chasing it and ripping it's head off...just sayin :) :) :)

  6. Reilly, there was no chasing this bunny. He was as tall as Dad and had HUGE feet in high top sneakers. He didn't hop, he walked in big long steps. When we sat down, this bunny had a grip. As for ripping it's head, he could have had us down in a bunny hold without trying.

  10. Mommy said she saw the Easter Bunny at the Mall once. We thought she made the whole thing up. If you guys say you actually saw it -- then I guess we should believe that the Easter Bunny does exist!

  14. It strange, it's one of those bunnies that is cute, but slightly (slightly) just a tad creepy, but I think thats a trend with every overgrown hare! Bailey and Katie you guys are gorgeous shelties, and very brave! You guys might like our giveaway we just put up!
