Interview with Mr. Otis

I have decided to interview each of my dogs by asking them each the same five questions.
I know I am the crazy dog lady (ahem, the Dog Dame), but I'm not crazy, I swear.  Read on to learn about the mutts that inspire me to blog!

1. For the record, please provide your full name:
I am Mr. Otis Ulysses.  You may call me Mr. Otis.  My family calls me Mr. Odit or Mr. Otis.

2. Tell me about when you joined the family.  How long has it been?
It's been almost 15 months since I joined the family.  I was five years old I was adopted from Love Mutts Rescue, and my family brought me home to live with Remy.  She just wanted to play, but I was too dignified for that, and a little portly, too.  It was love at first sight though... as soon as I met my new sister, I just wanted to cuddle with her... ALL THE TIME. I was really scared of the people in my family and hid from them, especially from the males.  I loved Remy, though.  The humans kept giving me love and cuddles and treats, though, and after awhile I wanted to be around them, too.  They had no idea for the first several weeks that every day, I like to greet the morning by loudly singing the song of my people (beagles) to the entire neighborhood.   They know and love (or at least begrudgingly accept) that about me, now.

3.  What is your favorite toy?
I haven't played with many toys, though I do have a red squeaky ball that I like to carry around, and sometimes roll around with.  Remy steals and and hides it because it squeaks.  I also enjoy playing with ropes and other toys that I can play tug of war with Remy.  I love to hide a cow femur in the leaves and chew it when I think nobody is looking.  I do run and play now, but mostly I just like to chase Remy (or run from her) and sniff things.  I like to cuddle with soft toys, but she Remy steals them to rip them apart and Bits steals them to cuddle with, too.

4. What is your least favorite thing to do?
I love to be outside, so I hate when it's really cold or rainy and I can't be outside much.  I just sleep  on the couch those days.  I'm not a huge of fan of getting my nails clipped but mom says I am the best out of the three about it.

5. What's your favorite treat?
ALL OF THEM!  I love to eat, and I love all of the different kinds of treats!  I love green beans, raw carrots, 3 ingredient cookies, ice cream, and I really love the dental treats.
