Squirrels are Taunting My Dog


I admit the 'word squirrel' is bigger than the little squirrel 
sitting above the word in the pic!

Donny the horse dog stares and barks at those 
aggravating squirrels

The squirrels have fun as they run....play....and scurry about.

However when Donny has the opportunity to chase one
They climb up a tree so fast!
Donny does not have a chance at catching them!

Oh the stresses of a dog's life!

LOL.... That is funny Kim. At least it keeps Donny busy and he isn't bugging you.

Wanda said...

My Bella goes crazy at the sight of a squirrel too.

Glenda said...

Many times it's the little things that stress one the most!!

I bet he never gives up on his dreams, though, lol.

Kim, The squirrels are helping Donny keep his lungs clear!lol Don't know if you saw my blog post I've been around dog's all my life about my dog Ben reaction to the squirrels. Ended up having to remove to bird-feeder in the back yard, because of him. Too funny Ben still has only barked when dreaming.

Hugs,

our squirrels sit on the top of the fence and chatter and make the dogs bark and go crazy. they also eat our fruit off the trees and make hubby crazy.

Karen said...

Yep, my dog has no chance of catching the pesky squirrels either, but he has fun trying!

Unknown said...

What a little cutie. One day our dog was chasing a squirrel and actually caught it. I don't know who was more surprised - he or the squirrel!

To eat too.....

Well, we all gotta have something to bring excitement into our lives!

Artsnark said...

love the title of this post. All I can think of is the dog in "UP" - have you seen that movie? Good luck Donny!

Jane said...

I'll bet Donny could catch one of those squirrels if you let him loose!

Poor Donny, but it makes life interesting for him.
When we lived in TN I watched this happen to our dogs on a daily basis. Our dog Bruno, a boxer, tried in vain many times to climb the tree after them. They are very cheeky little critters.

Some entertainment for him!

DUTA said...

It is rather entertaining to watch David (the squirrel) and Goliath (the dog) in action.
I like your "Oh the stresses of a dog's life". Oh, indeed.

naughty squirrel!

Birdie said...

Even though I would never ever want him to catch one a tiny bit of me is rooting for Donny. Just a little fur off the end of the squirrels tails.

It was amusing. I agree, how stressful they are.

Elephant's Child said...

No squirrels here. We do from time to time have possums. They used to drive the dogs crazy and have very dirty mouths and claws.

Ramakrishnan said...

Big challenge for Donny. I am sure he will master the art of squirrel catching one day !

S. Etole said...

The squirrels are absolutely crazy here this spring. So very many!

Debbie said...

I've noticed some seriously nutty squirrels around here too. We JUST fixed the squirrel damage on our front porch so I hope they keep their gnawers to themselves, though.

I kind of feel like the horse dog at times in my futile attempts to keep them at bay.

We get squirrels in the yard from time to time and surprisingly, my chi's don't pay much attention to them.

I like to feed the squirrels at school sometimes.

Sueann said...

But I am sure for him, the chase is worth the stress. Ha
