Bunny in the Rain

Hello. This is The Daily Bone and I’m your trustworthy doggie reporter Chester L. W. Spaniel.

My ghost writer is finally done with her research paper. Hooray! Now she’ll have more time to devote to the important stuff, like the local doggie news, weather, political commentary, yum yums, and funny videos and web sites. She hasn’t even had time to take many pictures! And then—oh the horror—yesterday the internet went down in our area most of the evening. Oh no! It’s taken us till noon today to get things up and running again. So after all that, we only have one item in our report today and here it is:

Apparently the Bunny Militia thought the recent rainy, gloomy weather was the perfect cover in which to advance their annual invasion. In fact, we caught a few photos of them with the spy cam. As you can see, Corporal Bunbun is slowly sneaking up our front lawn. He took refuge under the blue spruce tree for quite a while to keep from getting soaked.

He’s pretty good at camouflage. See him to the right of the tree trunk?

Incidentally, I’ve been going for walks early in the morning again, and I’ve spotted several more Bunnie Militia operatives around the neighborhood. It’s only a matter of time until one of them shows up in our back yard, where it’s fair game for me and my associate Joseph (Joey dog) Spaniel. There’s nothing more fun to chase than bunnies!

Joey dog and I have been diligently patrolling the yard. We can report that the bunnies haven’t yet broken through the perimeter. We’ve been hampered somewhat by the intermittent rainfall, though. Our humans don’t like it when we come back in all wet after rummaging under the bushes and hostas, so they don't let us out as often. But if the Bunny Militia doesn’t mind being out in the rain, then neither do we!
