Wonder Dog

I was enjoying myself yesterday while reading an item my friend Marla over at Butts and Ashes posted - at her expense, of course. Marla doesn't mind people enjoying a good laugh or two. She's been known to cause them purposely.

Unfortunately, my little reply to her post has come around full circle. I said I hated mice but loved her food of choice for them... "here little micey, here you go." {sigh} They came, alright.

At least one of them, anyway...

But - Wonder Dog to the rescue!


Ron headed into his bathroom this afternoon and I heard, "Teresa, Maisey caught a mouse." Naturally, I had to go see for myself. Sure enough, in the middle of the bathroom floor for all to see was a little (and very dead) mouse.

Thank you, Maisey! You saved us!

I went and reset my mouse traps - just in case it had some friends come visiting.

Looks like you have a greater mouser on your hands. Good girl Maisey.

Good that the dog can catch the mice...my cats won't even catch them...good luck...dislike the little things immensely...

Do you rent Maisey out because I am feeling quite desperate. A mouse ran down the hall this evening as our five...FIVE...dogs slept in front of the fireplace. Ingrates!

Hey there! So glad you stopped by & even more glad you left a comment so I could swing by & visit you! Isn't Marla a hoot! love her! I really do! But I do think your little Maisey IS a hero! I don't have much love for those little mice either :) Go Maisey!! Don't let Marla know or she might want to borrow her :)

Fun to know you are a middlest too! I just LOVE it!

Oh Maisley is A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E!!!
Our Izzy already thinks she is a cat/dog...she sleeps high on the backs of the couch and chair, cleans her paw pads before she sleeps and goes after anything that moves.

Good girl Maisley...you little cutie pie!

Maisey is freakin' adorable. I have a huge black lab and he runs from mice. Just goes to show you that it's not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog!
