"Driving Mr. Beckett"

Beckett loves riding in the car.
When Beckett first joined us he would look out the back window and watch it all go by. But lately he has taken to riding shotgun in the front seat on the floor. First we think he caught a scent of a treat on the floor.. maybe. But since then he kind of likes hanging out here. It gives him a front row seat to check out the humans.
It is kind of funny... no bucket seats for Beckett.
He might have gotten a little jostled around before and finds this a bit safer with our driving.

"Beckett and the Finer things in Life"

Beckett has discovered the finer things in life for a dog. The dog bed!! Oh he thinks it is sooooo great. He likes to bring his toy there, hang out, or just roll around for a back scratch. It is fuzzy and ohhhh so comfy.
We don't think Beckett had a bed before coming to the Burbs. He watched his foster friends hang out in it for about a week, and finally got the hang of it.
Boy is it nice and comfy. He hopes he will have one at his new home soon.
He also is doing really well on his potty training.
He figured out if he "pottys outside" he gets a tasty treat. Sometimes we think he is faking it just to get an extra kibble or 2. Cute Guy Beckett.

Beckett Passed up A Pepperoni Pizza

Say What? Beckett Passed up a hot pepperoni pizza. You figure hound+pizza=yum.
Not Beckett. A steaming hot pizza came out of the oven and Beckett followed, but after just a quick correction... Beckett headed to his crate to hang out. I can't get his foster friends to do this. Wow what a nice dog!!

Beckett Goes to the Farm


Beckett had a field trip to visit some friends on a play date.
He met a beautiful leggy foxhound/beagle "Lucky". Boy was he lucky to find her... he thinks she is his girlfriend. He is quite smitten. She is a hound you know.

They ran thru the fields together across the farm and chased moles.Very romantic first date. She is a bit younger for him, but he still kept up running. Beckett's is a fast runner.

She is smitten as well.. she tried to jump in our car as we left. Stay tuned for their second date..

"Hip Hip Hooray" Beckett Can Play

Beckett surprised us this morning. He has been holding out on us. He likes to play!!
He went flying thru the air and chased his foster friends in circles in the yard. Pretty funny for this little guy who lives with his bigger foster dogs. He can hold his own with the Big Dogs and was skidding around the big deck outside. He likes a good chase and is learning how to play nicely. Yeah Beckett.
