1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,600 What's up y'all? 2 00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:12,240 Thanks for joining the Travel Tales and Talk podcast with Derek and Makayla. 3 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:13,240 I'm Derek. 4 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:14,240 I'm Makayla. 5 00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:27,080 Thanks for listening and enjoy the show. 6 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:28,080 What's up? 7 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:33,680 Welcome back for another episode of Travel Tales and Talk with Derek and Makayla. 8 00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:37,640 And I've noticed something, honey, with Travel Tales and Talk, but we haven't introduced 9 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:42,520 anyone to the tales portion of this, which are our fur babies. 10 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,600 So let's talk about our fur babies a little bit. 11 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:52,320 And the question is, we get from our neighbors all the time, friends and family, why do we 12 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:58,040 have four beagles, a rabbit, and a cat? 13 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:02,680 Yeah, sounds like a whole lot, but it's really not. 14 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:03,680 It's not. 15 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:04,680 It's not. 16 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:05,680 They're sweet. 17 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:06,680 All right. 18 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,920 So we have the beagles because Derek likes to hunt. 19 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:10,920 Yes, I do. 20 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:11,920 Anyone knows me? 21 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:13,320 I love to hunt, rabbit hunt. 22 00:01:13,320 --> 00:01:14,320 Yes. 23 00:01:14,320 --> 00:01:21,200 And we have the rabbit because Derek thought it would be a good idea to go purchase a rabbit. 24 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:22,200 Where'd you get this rabbit from? 25 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:23,200 From a farm. 26 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,720 From a farm somewhere here in Kentucky. 27 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:31,120 He went and bought this rabbit so he could train our dogs how to hunt. 28 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:32,120 Yes, yes. 29 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:33,120 Now let me tell you about our rabbit. 30 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,160 Our rabbit is beautiful, okay? 31 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:36,200 He looks- He's a handsome rabbit. 32 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:40,320 He looks just like the rabbit emoji on the iPhone. 33 00:01:40,320 --> 00:01:43,200 He is gray, he is fluffy, he is beautiful. 34 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:47,520 And I looked at Derek like, oh, heck no, we're not finna take this rabbit. 35 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:49,640 He reminds me of Bugs Bunny with his grayness. 36 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,920 Oh yeah, when I tell you he's beautiful, he is beautiful, he's stunning. 37 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,120 I was like, we're not finna use this rabbit. 38 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:56,120 But let me interject. 39 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:57,120 What? 40 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:02,360 When you have young dogs, young beagles, you need to find you a domestic rabbit so they 41 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,680 can learn how to track with their nose and use their sight. 42 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:11,000 So it's a introduction to rabbit hunting 101 for the beagle. 43 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,600 Why didn't you buy an ugly rabbit? 44 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,200 I don't think there is an ugly rabbit. 45 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:16,200 Okay. 46 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:17,200 No, think about it. 47 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,320 There are no ugly rabbits. 48 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:21,200 All rabbits are cute. 49 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:22,200 Okay. 50 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:27,160 And then the cat, we actually rescued the cat. 51 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:28,640 He's been with us for a couple of months. 52 00:02:28,640 --> 00:02:33,440 We actually rescued him like a week or so before Halloween 2023. 53 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,160 I think the cat was a trap because you wanted the cat so bad. 54 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:37,160 I didn't. 55 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:38,160 But somehow I come home, there's a cat at the house. 56 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:39,160 I didn't. 57 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,720 I wasn't looking for a cat. 58 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,480 I wasn't looking for a cat. 59 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,400 We'll tell you a little bit more about how he became a part of our family in a little 60 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:48,400 bit. 61 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:53,400 But let's talk about the beagles and we'll introduce all the rabbits, not rabbits, all 62 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:54,400 the pets. 63 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:59,560 First, we got Tracker and Chase. 64 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:04,040 So how Tracker and Chase came about was my dad has beagles. 65 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:05,040 Okay. 66 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:11,800 He didn't want any more beagles, but he bred Nancy who is their mother to Max who's their 67 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:12,800 father. 68 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:17,440 And it's like, if you don't want any more dogs, why would you breed more beagles? 69 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,440 Doesn't make sense to me. 70 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:27,800 So on August 10th of 2019, Tracker and Chase were born along with their siblings. 71 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,260 This was Nancy's first litter. 72 00:03:30,260 --> 00:03:35,660 She had six females, which were all tri-colors and the two black and tans, which are now 73 00:03:35,660 --> 00:03:38,360 Tracker and Chase. 74 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:39,360 And that's crazy. 75 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:43,500 She had all these tri-colors and these two black and tans. 76 00:03:43,500 --> 00:03:46,520 So I wanted beagles because I love to hunt. 77 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,960 So I decided to take, hey, let's take these two. 78 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:49,960 That's all we need. 79 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:55,160 And we'll take these two black and tan males. 80 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,080 We get them home, I think they what? 81 00:03:58,080 --> 00:03:59,080 Four months old when they came? 82 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:00,080 Yeah, I don't know. 83 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,080 I felt that they were too old. 84 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,040 Derek didn't want them to come home right away. 85 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:05,480 So- Well, we were staying in an apartment at 86 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:06,480 the time. 87 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:07,480 Oh, yeah, yeah. 88 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:08,480 This is right before we bought the house. 89 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:09,480 Yeah, we had just moved from Atlanta. 90 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,480 We were in- Stop throwing me under the bus. 91 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,480 Hey, whatever. 92 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:22,360 All I know is by the time these little things came to the house, they were quite old and 93 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:23,360 they were hard to train. 94 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:24,360 No. 95 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:25,360 Them little jokers were hard headed. 96 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:26,360 No. 97 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:27,360 They got here in what? 98 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:28,360 January, February? 99 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:29,360 Yes. 100 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,360 So it was six months maybe. 101 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:37,480 But anywho, we decided to let Lana Rose name them. 102 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:41,800 And this is when she was in her Paw Patrol phase. 103 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:47,080 So she came up with Tracker and Chase. 104 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,080 I know Chase is a Paw Patrol member. 105 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:53,200 I don't believe Tracker is. 106 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:54,200 Can you help me out with that? 107 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:55,200 I don't know. 108 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,400 I thought Tracker would be a good name because it was dealing with hunting. 109 00:04:58,400 --> 00:04:59,400 Right. 110 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:00,400 I agree. 111 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,840 You know, and you can track animals and you chase animals. 112 00:05:03,840 --> 00:05:04,840 Yeah, that's good. 113 00:05:04,840 --> 00:05:05,840 That's where I was thinking. 114 00:05:05,840 --> 00:05:08,040 I'm glad she came up with those names. 115 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,760 I didn't think she would come up with very creative names. 116 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,880 She stole one name, Chase, which is a Paw Patrol member. 117 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,640 He's the police dog. 118 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:22,320 And then Tracker is a great name because he is a beagle, which tracks rabbits. 119 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,000 They are their names. 120 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:26,000 Yeah. 121 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,480 And then we have Tracker. 122 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:29,800 I think he's a little bit weird. 123 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,160 Just some of the things he does. 124 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,280 So we'll be in the backyard throwing the tennis ball around. 125 00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:38,120 And for the first five minutes, he's all into it. 126 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:42,280 And then this light bulb goes off like, I'm not supposed to be doing this. 127 00:05:42,280 --> 00:05:44,360 I'm not really a dog, am I? 128 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,640 And he'll just go sit off and just stare at the stars. 129 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,720 I'm like, what is wrong with this dude? 130 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:52,840 So he's been here before. 131 00:05:52,840 --> 00:05:57,240 The way he interacts with people, the way he does things, like playing with the tennis 132 00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,440 ball, that's out. 133 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:03,400 Chasing a squirrel, sometimes that's in, sometimes it's out. 134 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,960 Dude has been here before, Tracker. 135 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:11,040 And then we have, oh, and also about Tracker, he's a nonviolent rabbit hunter. 136 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:12,480 Oh my goodness. 137 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:16,000 So when we're out hunting and someone shoots, he's done. 138 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,280 He's like, look, we're not doing this. 139 00:06:18,280 --> 00:06:19,280 We're not doing this. 140 00:06:19,280 --> 00:06:20,280 I'll track him all day. 141 00:06:20,280 --> 00:06:23,040 But the moment you start shooting at that rabbit, I'm done. 142 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:24,040 So. 143 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:25,040 And what does he do? 144 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:26,720 He just sits beside me all day. 145 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,200 The whole hunt, he just sits there and stares. 146 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:30,200 He doesn't move. 147 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:31,200 He doesn't run off. 148 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:32,200 He doesn't chase. 149 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:37,160 He just sits there and then he's done. 150 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,960 But his brothers on the other hand, they keep going, especially like Chase. 151 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,040 You forgot something about Tracker. 152 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:48,680 Talk about out of all four Beagles, we decided to send him to obedience school. 153 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,140 So we haven't talked about the second two Beagles. 154 00:06:51,140 --> 00:06:52,600 We got our dogs in sets. 155 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:57,560 So the first set is Tracker and Chase. 156 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,360 And then we got their other brothers from another litter. 157 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,560 We're going to introduce them in a second, but let me tell you about Tracker. 158 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,600 Tell them about Tracker, baby. 159 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:09,280 Tracker out of all four, we decided to send him to obedience school because he was the 160 00:07:09,280 --> 00:07:11,720 only one just not with the program. 161 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:15,640 No, this is why you wanted to send him to obedience school because he's an attractive 162 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:19,520 dog and you thought he'll rake in millions on TV commercials. 163 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,120 I did not say that. 164 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:25,580 I love how you try to inflate a whole bunch of stuff. 165 00:07:25,580 --> 00:07:26,580 But he is a handsome dog. 166 00:07:26,580 --> 00:07:28,280 He's a very attractive dog. 167 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:29,280 Very handsome. 168 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:35,720 I had started them an Instagram page and he was the only one that would not sit and take 169 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,680 the pictures or do anything that I need. 170 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,520 He was the only one that was not listening. 171 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,600 Or he'll take a picture and the moment you snap the camera, he'll turn his head. 172 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:44,600 He would. 173 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,280 Like, oh purpose, like nope. 174 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:52,600 Because our dogs, they would wear costumes and they'll have on little wigs and they'll 175 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:54,160 be good. 176 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,120 I'll get about a good 10 minutes out of each of them. 177 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,760 So I had to work real quick but Tracker? 178 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,600 I couldn't even get a good 30 seconds out of that one. 179 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:06,320 So I was like, you know what, maybe I need to take him to obedience school so he can 180 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,320 learn how to sit, come and all that stuff. 181 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:12,120 Do you not realize homeboy flunked out of obedience school? 182 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:17,960 He went to all six sessions and we get to the last day when they're having the little 183 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:23,720 graduation promotion ceremony and talking about, okay, we'll see you next, at the next 184 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,160 session you're in level two. 185 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:32,200 She comes to me, Mrs. Sellers, I think we might need to have Tracker repeat the course. 186 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:36,240 And I'm looking like, are you flipping kidding me? 187 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,120 This dog failed obedience school. 188 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:39,120 And didn't miss a class. 189 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:43,960 No, he was there on time every session. 190 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:48,720 And the killer part about it, when the trainer would try to show a skill and she was like, 191 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,880 oh, well let me see if I can get him. 192 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,440 Tracker would do it on the first time for her, but me? 193 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:59,200 And I took him one time and she asked me to do these things with Tracker and he did them. 194 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,680 I'm like, my wife said he won't do this. 195 00:09:01,680 --> 00:09:03,960 Well, maybe he works harder for you. 196 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:07,800 I don't know, but he won't do it when he's with her. 197 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:09,720 And I thought it was strange. 198 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,360 At one point in time she would say, sit, and he would stand up. 199 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:17,160 It was always like he was doing the opposite of what she was saying on purpose. 200 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,040 I'm like, this dude is doing it on purpose. 201 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:20,040 He is. 202 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:21,040 I was like, dude, sit. 203 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,280 And he looked at me and he sat down. 204 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,880 But she would come over and say, he'll stand up. 205 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,200 I'm like, he's doing this on purpose. 206 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,680 He's being a real jerk right about now. 207 00:09:30,680 --> 00:09:33,080 That was intentional on his part. 208 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:38,040 And then his littermate that we brought home, Chase, Chase is a pleaser. 209 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:39,040 Yes. 210 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:40,520 Chase loves hugs. 211 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,520 He loves to hug you. 212 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,840 And of course he loves to run a rabbit. 213 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,800 Oh, that dog can run a rabbit. 214 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:48,800 He's amazing. 215 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:49,800 He's amazing. 216 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:55,800 And then also, if you want to look up unconditional love, that's Chase. 217 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:56,800 You can be mad at Chase. 218 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:57,800 You can yell at Chase. 219 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:03,400 You can do, you can, I hate to say, what's the word I'm looking for? 220 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,280 Not punish, but say, hey, don't do that. 221 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,200 And he'll give you those sad eyes. 222 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,080 And I'm sorry. 223 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,160 I just want to please you. 224 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:14,160 Yes. 225 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:19,440 Because our dogs, for the most part, we let them stay outside and they run and do beagle 226 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,800 things, but every night we'll bring them in. 227 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:22,800 And it's a whole thing. 228 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:26,360 They all sleep in the room with us, et cetera, et cetera. 229 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,680 But sometimes we have to split them up at night. 230 00:10:29,680 --> 00:10:34,000 And we always split them up two, two by two, right? 231 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,400 And Chase, because he's so... 232 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:37,400 Lovable. 233 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,900 Lovable and compliant, listens. 234 00:10:40,900 --> 00:10:44,280 He's always one of the ones that gets put out to go to the other room. 235 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:45,280 Go with London Rose. 236 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:46,280 Because he listens. 237 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:50,080 And the other ones, he goes right away. 238 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:51,080 You can see it on his face. 239 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,040 He does not want to go sleep with our daughter. 240 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:54,480 He does not. 241 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:59,320 But because we said do it, he'll get up and go, but he'll be looking sad the whole time. 242 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,560 And not only would he get up and go, he will run in there because he knows that's what 243 00:11:02,560 --> 00:11:03,560 he's supposed to do. 244 00:11:03,560 --> 00:11:04,560 Right. 245 00:11:04,560 --> 00:11:05,840 Now we always pair him with... 246 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:06,840 Ranger. 247 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:07,840 Another one, Ranger. 248 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,160 And we got to go hunt that little thing down. 249 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:11,360 He's under the bed. 250 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:12,560 He's in a different room. 251 00:11:12,560 --> 00:11:13,560 He runs downstairs. 252 00:11:13,560 --> 00:11:16,880 We got to carry him into the room. 253 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:20,880 Because the dogs don't always want to go in a room with our daughter. 254 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,920 I don't know what goes on in that room, but it's like... 255 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:24,920 You can see it on their face. 256 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:25,920 They be like, no. 257 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:26,920 No. 258 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:27,920 Don't split up the pack. 259 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:28,920 We don't want to go. 260 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:29,920 We'll be good tonight. 261 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:30,920 We'll be good tonight. 262 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:35,200 We won't be under the bed all night coughing and stuff. 263 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:36,200 We won't. 264 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:40,640 But we want to talk about our bunny, Dr. Speedy Hops. 265 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:41,640 That is his name. 266 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:42,640 We call him Speedy for short. 267 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:46,760 I just still don't know how you came up with that name, Dr. Speedy Hops. 268 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:47,760 I don't know. 269 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:52,640 I just had it in my head that I already knew he was going to wear clothes. 270 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,240 I just knew. 271 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:58,440 And I just picture him with the spectacles on, little bunny spectacles. 272 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,360 And I have yet to get these spectacles. 273 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:02,840 He's been with us four years now. 274 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:04,600 No, you put clothing on him. 275 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:05,600 He chews them up. 276 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:06,600 He doesn't chew up his clothes. 277 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:07,600 He just... 278 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:08,600 He chewed up his leash. 279 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:09,600 He chewed up his leash. 280 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:10,600 You know, I don't know. 281 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:11,600 He chewed up his leash. 282 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:16,240 You know, I try to teach him how to walk on the leash and he chewed his way out of it. 283 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,080 That's my fault because I left him in it too long and I walked away. 284 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:20,720 I should have been monitoring him. 285 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:21,840 And he tried to escape. 286 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:23,760 But he has Mickey Mouse ears. 287 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,920 He has Christmas sweaters. 288 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,560 He has a business... 289 00:12:28,560 --> 00:12:30,960 Bow tie. 290 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,200 It's a dress shirt with a vest. 291 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:34,440 He's an elegant bunny rabbit. 292 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:35,920 Well, it's a half vest. 293 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:36,920 But you get... 294 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:37,920 He looks so cute in it. 295 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:38,920 He has a farmer's hat. 296 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,040 He has a top hat. 297 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,680 He has his own backpack to travel in. 298 00:12:43,680 --> 00:12:45,720 He has his own bubble backpack. 299 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,400 Where'd you find that? 300 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:48,400 Amazon. 301 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:49,800 Was that for the cat or you bought it from him? 302 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:50,800 It was for the cat. 303 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:51,800 Okay. 304 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:53,000 So it got converted to a bunny carrier. 305 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:54,000 Yep. 306 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,000 The cat don't want to be in it. 307 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,120 No, the cat does not want to be in it. 308 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:01,400 But owning a cat has been an eye-opening experience. 309 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,480 You kind of learn the body language of the rabbit. 310 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,800 So when he's honking, honking is a sign of love. 311 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,560 Oh, they love you. 312 00:13:09,560 --> 00:13:14,120 And then also, I'll never forget one day he's just running circles around me. 313 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:15,520 I'm like, what is wrong with this rabbit? 314 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,240 He just kept running circles, kept running circles. 315 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:22,400 I thought he was exercising, but that's a sign of affection as well. 316 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:28,160 So when a rabbit circles your body, like runs around your feet, like ring around the rosies, 317 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:29,760 that's a sign that they love you. 318 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:31,640 Yeah, sign of affection. 319 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:36,960 I don't know because I've actually experienced Speedy running around my feet one minute and 320 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:38,720 two minutes later, he's biting my finger. 321 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,080 I don't know what that's about. 322 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:42,080 He likes the way you taste. 323 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:43,560 He's a vampire bunny rabbit. 324 00:13:43,560 --> 00:13:45,040 He's always drawing blood. 325 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:46,840 I'm like, come on, man. 326 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,320 I'm the one that go to the store and buy all of your snack donuts. 327 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,320 What are we doing? 328 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:53,320 Snack donuts. 329 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:54,320 Yeah, yeah. 330 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,720 He's just fickle like that. 331 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:57,720 He's a fickle rabbit. 332 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,080 And then sometimes you'll pay attention. 333 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,160 We call it his sexy pose. 334 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:06,880 This is when he lays like he's modeling for Playboy or something. 335 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:07,880 He stretches out. 336 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:12,160 It's like when a rabbit lays out long and their legs are to the side. 337 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:13,160 His sexy pose. 338 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:14,920 That means he's relaxed. 339 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:18,000 He's comfortable in his environment. 340 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:19,000 He doesn't feel stressed. 341 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,960 He feels safe. 342 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:26,040 And then there are times when he's in this ball. 343 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:27,520 And for some reason, that means he's uncomfortable. 344 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,960 He doesn't want to be bothered. 345 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,960 And then, I didn't know this until we owned a rabbit. 346 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:33,960 Rabbits growl. 347 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,360 It's not a real loud growl like a dog. 348 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:38,360 That means leave me alone. 349 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,920 I don't feel like being bothered right now. 350 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:42,820 And I think he bit me a couple of times. 351 00:14:42,820 --> 00:14:43,820 He warned me. 352 00:14:43,820 --> 00:14:44,820 He gave me the growl. 353 00:14:44,820 --> 00:14:47,080 And I still reached in and boom, he bit me. 354 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,000 Because he didn't want to be bothered. 355 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:53,920 But you know, in Speedy's defense, for the first couple of years of his life, and I feel 356 00:14:53,920 --> 00:15:00,700 really bad about this, is that he wasn't really part, part of the family. 357 00:15:00,700 --> 00:15:04,300 So what I mean was he spent most of the time kind of isolated. 358 00:15:04,300 --> 00:15:06,100 He was in his own. 359 00:15:06,100 --> 00:15:08,540 He has a rather large pen. 360 00:15:08,540 --> 00:15:11,380 But his pen is like in a corner in the basement. 361 00:15:11,380 --> 00:15:14,840 And we would only let him out to run like once a day. 362 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,000 In breakfast time, he would run upstairs to get his food. 363 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,040 We were afraid he would chew the house down. 364 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:20,600 Yeah, because he was chewing. 365 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,580 But that was because we didn't know what we were doing. 366 00:15:23,580 --> 00:15:32,080 So after I joined a couple of bunny groups on Facebook, I learned that rabbits can be 367 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:33,080 trained just like a dog. 368 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,520 And I was like, why is my rabbit not behaving like this? 369 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,880 I can't leave my rabbit out all day. 370 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:45,800 Because he chewed up all four of our chairs in our kitchen. 371 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,440 So if you come over and sit on our chairs, you might crash. 372 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,320 He done chewed the legs up. 373 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:56,200 He done chewed, like we painted in certain rooms so that we hadn't put the socket plates 374 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:57,200 back on. 375 00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:58,200 He done chewed the wall. 376 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,360 And I'm like, I don't know what to do. 377 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:08,240 And then on top of that, because Derek bought him to train the dogs how to hunt him, a couple 378 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,280 of times our dogs not necessarily attacked him. 379 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,600 Because if they had a full blown attack speed, he would have been dead. 380 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,160 But they did run him. 381 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:20,280 And running was chasing them. 382 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:24,240 And lick him to death or nose him to death. 383 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,360 Just imagine being this little small thing and you got all these noses pushing on you. 384 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:29,400 It's scary. 385 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,640 So that happened for a couple of years. 386 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:39,320 But then recently, in the past four or five months, I decided, hey, I'm going to watch 387 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:40,320 the videos. 388 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:43,960 I want to learn how to be a better bunny mom. 389 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,120 And now Speedy free roams. 390 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,520 He free roams our house. 391 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:53,080 Now granted, he only has access to a couple of rooms without us being in it. 392 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:54,520 Because we have bunny proof those rooms. 393 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:58,720 So you'll walk in our house and we'll have socks on all the legs of the tables and all 394 00:16:58,720 --> 00:16:59,720 the chairs. 395 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:01,160 He loves to chew no matter what. 396 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:05,600 Yeah, but now that I know that I've given him other things to chew on, like our daughters 397 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,440 in Taekwondo, she has the wood. 398 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:13,760 You know when they break wood with their fists and stuff, we save those pieces and we bring 399 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:17,240 them home for the rabbit to chew on. 400 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,760 And he has to chew because his teeth are always growing. 401 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:20,760 Yes. 402 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:21,760 Didn't know that. 403 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:22,760 Fun fact. 404 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:23,760 So rabbits have to run. 405 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:25,840 They have to run for their digestion. 406 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,640 So them being in a cage all day is not good for them. 407 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:29,640 It's unhealthy. 408 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,560 And their teeth will grow until the day that they die. 409 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:36,280 So they have to chew to keep their teeth down. 410 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,360 Because if their teeth get too long, they could die from that as well. 411 00:17:39,360 --> 00:17:40,360 Right. 412 00:17:40,360 --> 00:17:44,040 And then also they need to claw and scratch on things because that's how they keep their 413 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:45,040 nails short. 414 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:46,040 Yep. 415 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:47,040 So yeah. 416 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:48,480 Everything's done for a reason. 417 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:49,480 Yeah. 418 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,320 And so Speedy now, like I said, you could train him like a dog. 419 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:54,160 Speedy knows his name. 420 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,480 We have these little snacks that we get at Walmart. 421 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,160 They look like little cookies. 422 00:17:58,160 --> 00:17:59,160 They're frosted. 423 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:00,680 Look, they look like cookies so much. 424 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:01,760 They're called donuts. 425 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:02,760 They're bunny donuts. 426 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:03,760 They're called donuts. 427 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:07,800 And I keep them safe in a nice little candy jar. 428 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:08,800 And they sit. 429 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:09,800 On the table. 430 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:11,960 Well, they sit on, yeah, they sit on the table. 431 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:12,960 They're on display. 432 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:13,960 Next to the cake dish. 433 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,960 Anyway, Derek thought that they were cookies. 434 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:17,960 He ate one. 435 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:18,960 I didn't pay attention. 436 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:19,960 I was like, oh, we got some new snacks. 437 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:20,960 He said, baby, these don't taste very good. 438 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:21,960 And I looked at him like, are you serious right now? 439 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:22,960 I said, yeah, it tastes like cardboard or something. 440 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:23,960 And I was like, look at this. 441 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:24,960 I'm like, what? 442 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:29,960 You don't recognize those? 443 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:31,640 Those are Speedy's donuts. 444 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:32,640 I was hungry. 445 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:33,640 I needed a snack. 446 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:34,640 He ate the rabbit's donuts. 447 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,160 I was like, why did you put these here? 448 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,560 They're usually in the bag on the counter. 449 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:40,800 You just put them in that dish. 450 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:41,800 I'm like, oh, we got some new snacks. 451 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,720 No, but the thing is I love to decorate. 452 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,440 And I was doing something new in the kitchen. 453 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,440 I had his little treats on display. 454 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:53,240 But let me tell you guys, that rabbit, you can say, hey, Speedy, you want a donut? 455 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:57,600 And wherever he is, he'll come and run it. 456 00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,600 So a couple of times, he'll get away from us. 457 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:00,600 And we don't know where he's going. 458 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:01,600 What room is this little thing in? 459 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:02,600 What is he hiding under? 460 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:03,600 And we'll call him. 461 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:04,600 He can't hear us. 462 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:11,040 But the moment he either hear the bag or hear the clanking of the candy dish now or hear 463 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:14,080 us say, Speedy, donuts, come get donuts. 464 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:15,080 He comes and runs. 465 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,680 Are you hearing his little feet on the wood floors? 466 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:18,680 He's coming and running. 467 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:20,120 He's coming and running from the little donuts. 468 00:19:20,120 --> 00:19:24,520 I don't know what Walmart put in them things, but they are so delicious to him. 469 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,080 We call them rabbit crackers. 470 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:27,080 Yep. 471 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:28,080 That and carrots. 472 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:29,080 You say, Speedy, you want a carrot? 473 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,120 He'll come running for those too. 474 00:19:31,120 --> 00:19:32,120 Yep. 475 00:19:32,120 --> 00:19:33,120 Yep. 476 00:19:33,120 --> 00:19:37,600 So we have, we've introduced Chasen, Tracker, and then the bunny. 477 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,320 We put in an order how they arrive to the house. 478 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:45,480 So the next, we have Ranger and Scout. 479 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,320 Once again, my dad breeds Nancy. 480 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,600 He doesn't want any more dogs, but he's still breeding the dogs. 481 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:51,760 Like, what are you doing, dude? 482 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:52,760 Stop. 483 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,000 And this time, Nancy has a litter of eight as well. 484 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,960 You have four Tracos, which is black, white, and tan. 485 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:00,800 Then you had four black and tan. 486 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:01,800 Crazy. 487 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,440 Crazy how nature works. 488 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,400 So they were born on August 9th of 2020. 489 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:11,360 Remember Chasen, Tracker were born August 10th of 2019. 490 00:20:11,360 --> 00:20:15,680 So for one day out the year, they're all the same age, which is pretty cool. 491 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:16,680 Pretty cool. 492 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:17,680 And they're all brothers. 493 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:18,680 People don't realize that. 494 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:19,680 Yeah, they're all brothers. 495 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:20,680 Just different litters. 496 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:25,160 Because Scout is the only tricolored male that we have. 497 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:28,080 And then Ranger is the only black and tan. 498 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:30,640 Black and tan from that litter we kept. 499 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:35,640 And about that litter, we brought home two of their sisters who were both black and tan. 500 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:36,640 They were beautiful. 501 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:37,640 Yes. 502 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:41,120 McCollum meets some guy at PetSmart talking about beagles. 503 00:20:41,120 --> 00:20:43,200 I think you might have Tracker up there that day. 504 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,600 Yeah, when I tell you guys, Tracker is beautiful. 505 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,240 We get stopped about Tracker all the time. 506 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,520 He's a beautiful beagle. 507 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:59,440 If you Google a beagle on the internet, you will see Tracker except his body is all brown 508 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:00,440 and black. 509 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:01,440 So black and tan. 510 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,720 And his brown is like not even a... 511 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:05,680 It's like a coppery... 512 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:09,720 I can't describe his brown, but because their dad is copper. 513 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,640 He's like he's all... 514 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:13,640 He looks like a penny. 515 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:19,840 If you ever see a beagle that is the color of a penny through and through, that's their 516 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:20,840 dad. 517 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:23,760 I don't know what kind of genetic anomaly it happens. 518 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,640 That's why we got him, because he didn't match his siblings. 519 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:28,400 Yeah, but he's beautiful though. 520 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,440 He's like the most beautiful beagle I've ever seen. 521 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:34,440 He has a genetic defect, and the guy didn't like it. 522 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,640 Some people like all their dogs that look the same. 523 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,400 And I thought it was ridiculous. 524 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:39,400 What? 525 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:43,240 At first, we wanted all the black and tans, but then when we saw Scout, Scout was the only 526 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:48,720 tricolor male of his litter, and we just couldn't let him go like that. 527 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,040 So we brought him home. 528 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:51,980 He's a handsome dog too. 529 00:21:51,980 --> 00:21:54,640 So once again, we let London Rose name these two. 530 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:55,640 Oh boy. 531 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:56,640 Ranger and Scout. 532 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:57,640 Good names. 533 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:01,560 I think they fit. 534 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:07,260 So Scout, Scout is like a genius dog. 535 00:22:07,260 --> 00:22:08,260 He's a tricolor. 536 00:22:08,260 --> 00:22:09,260 He's a tricolor. 537 00:22:09,260 --> 00:22:10,300 He's a genius dog. 538 00:22:10,300 --> 00:22:11,940 This dog can open doors. 539 00:22:11,940 --> 00:22:13,520 He can open his own pen. 540 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:16,520 None of the other dogs can do it. 541 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:17,640 He can open his own pen. 542 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:23,240 I've witnessed this on several occasions where he lifts the latch and slides it over. 543 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,040 I'm like, what are you doing? 544 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:26,040 Because he watches. 545 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:27,040 He does. 546 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:31,760 He watches what you're doing, and he's like, hmm, I think I can do that. 547 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:35,720 There are some things that I don't do in front of him because he'll figure it out. 548 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:36,720 Yeah. 549 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,880 I told you I caught him bird watching for like 10 minutes. 550 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:40,880 He didn't move. 551 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:45,080 Yeah, because I watched him for literally about 10 minutes. 552 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:48,640 And I'd be gosh darn it if that night he didn't come bring a bird to us. 553 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:49,640 Yeah. 554 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:51,120 Yeah, he's a supreme predator. 555 00:22:51,120 --> 00:22:52,120 He brings birds, bats. 556 00:22:52,120 --> 00:22:54,760 I'm like, come on, dude. 557 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,600 And he's the most vocal of the four. 558 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:02,440 So when the other dogs are doing something they shouldn't be doing, we'll hear a howling 559 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,520 and that's Scout saying, hey, they're doing something they shouldn't be doing. 560 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:06,520 He's a tattletale. 561 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:07,520 He'd be snitching. 562 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:08,520 He is the snitch. 563 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:09,520 He'd be snitching. 564 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,920 And he's a greedy little dog too. 565 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,160 And then we have Ranger. 566 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:16,560 Ranger was the runt of the litter. 567 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:17,560 He was. 568 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,440 He was really tiny as a pup. 569 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:25,560 And he came to us cut up like he had a slice in his paw on his arm. 570 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:30,320 Yeah, I think that's where his older and bigger siblings kind of pushed him around and he 571 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:31,320 got hurt somehow. 572 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:32,320 Yeah. 573 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,760 And now he's the largest of the four. 574 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:35,760 And he's the bully. 575 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:36,760 And he's the bully. 576 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:40,720 And this little dude holds a grudge. 577 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:44,640 When he doesn't like something and you do something against him, he holds a grudge for 578 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:45,640 a couple of weeks. 579 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,280 I'm like, I didn't know dogs held grudges. 580 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:49,760 This dude would hold a grudge. 581 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,280 But most of the time he's nonchalant. 582 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:57,520 But when you do something to upset him, offend him, he's going to hold a grudge. 583 00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:58,840 He's not going to let it go either. 584 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:04,360 How we find out is when they all come in the house for bedtime, whoever dog he's beefing 585 00:24:04,360 --> 00:24:06,200 with, he won't let them in the room. 586 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,600 He's blocking their bed. 587 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:09,600 He won't let them. 588 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,200 He'll stand in front of me. 589 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,960 They can't get no hugs, no love, no pets. 590 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,640 Or he'll come get in the bed with them to force them out. 591 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:19,640 It's a whole thing. 592 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:21,640 I'm like, my goodness. 593 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:26,400 Unlike their brothers, unlike Chase and Tracker, I sent them to rabbit school. 594 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:27,400 Oh yeah. 595 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:28,400 Yeah, you remember that? 596 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:29,400 Yeah. 597 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:30,400 So they went to rabbit school for a week. 598 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,040 So they didn't have to train with Dr. Speedy Hobbs. 599 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:34,960 They should have. 600 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:41,240 I sent them to rabbit school where they train with other young beagles to track rabbits. 601 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:42,960 Explain how that was. 602 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:46,600 So I found this guy's phone number from a fellow rabbit hunter. 603 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,720 He said, hey, this guy has a starter pen. 604 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:53,160 So a starter pen is where you put young beagles to train to track rabbits. 605 00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:54,160 I said, great. 606 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:57,360 So I called him up and he said, well, I can't get them this week. 607 00:24:57,360 --> 00:25:01,720 I can get them at, I think it was the end of March. 608 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:06,040 So what happens, he has this massive pen, I think it's maybe two or three acres where 609 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:09,360 he stocks wild rabbits in. 610 00:25:09,360 --> 00:25:13,320 And there were Scout, Ranger, and like three other young beagles. 611 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:17,080 And all day long, they just learn how to track rabbits. 612 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:23,040 So what he does, he puts an older dog in there during the day that can start the chase, the 613 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,400 hunt, and the beagle pups fall in line. 614 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,120 They learn how to track that way. 615 00:25:29,120 --> 00:25:32,260 And I dropped them off on like a Monday. 616 00:25:32,260 --> 00:25:34,760 He called me like on a Wednesday and said, hey, they're ready. 617 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:40,680 So if your dog doesn't have it in them, when you put them in a starter pen, they won't 618 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:41,720 get it. 619 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:43,200 So he's like, yeah, this is pretty quick. 620 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,080 It usually takes a little while longer. 621 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:46,760 But I could have called you on Tuesday. 622 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:47,760 They were ready. 623 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:48,760 Yeah. 624 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:54,680 And the beagles, the dogs, look, I want to call them my babies, my babies. 625 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:59,040 I went to go pick them up with Derrick and it was just, I felt like I was picking up 626 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,880 my child from sleepaway camp. 627 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:05,000 Because we went into the pen to get them. 628 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,200 Our two ran to us for loves and cuddles. 629 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,080 And then these other dogs came out of nowhere wanting loves and cuddles. 630 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:11,080 Yeah, loving cuddles too. 631 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:12,080 Hey. 632 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:16,760 And then our two licks us and they run off and keep chasing this rabbit. 633 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,240 So we couldn't leave right away. 634 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:23,360 But by the time we got them in the car, they slept like all day. 635 00:26:23,360 --> 00:26:26,200 And I had to ask Derrick, like they don't go to sleep. 636 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,480 It's like, no, they run rabbits all day. 637 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:29,760 And I said they slept outside? 638 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:30,760 Yeah. 639 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:31,760 You mean a coyote or something? 640 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:32,760 Could have got my dog? 641 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:33,760 No, couldn't have got it. 642 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:34,760 No. 643 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:39,520 But yeah, because they have it in them, they're going to run all day, all night. 644 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,460 You would literally have to go out there and put them up. 645 00:26:42,460 --> 00:26:45,680 But since they're in the environment where they can just go whenever they want, if you 646 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:49,420 have an older dog out there, their older dog is going to hunt all night too. 647 00:26:49,420 --> 00:26:52,880 So they're not going to sleep until you put them in a pen or something. 648 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,120 Because they want to hunt. 649 00:26:54,120 --> 00:26:55,120 It's in their DNA. 650 00:26:55,120 --> 00:27:00,080 So yeah, they probably didn't sleep for those three days they were out there. 651 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,880 I want to talk about their sisters, their beautiful sisters. 652 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:04,160 I'm so angry. 653 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,280 I met this guy, PetSmart, because he saw Tracker. 654 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,480 And he's like, oh, it's a beautiful dog. 655 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:10,480 Blah, blah, blah, blah. 656 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,880 I was like, yeah, my father-in-law just had some more. 657 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,200 And he was like, how much can I get him? 658 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,880 I was like, well, I think you can have him. 659 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:26,760 And Derek goes to Memphis and brings all the beagles back and the two girls. 660 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,960 When I tell y'all, they were so beautiful. 661 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:34,680 The shapes of their eyes, their snouts, they were beautiful dogs. 662 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:39,440 And this man gets the dogs for free, charge him nothing. 663 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,880 All Derek wanted to do was just hunt with them from time to time. 664 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,080 And the guy was like, oh, yeah, I'll let you know. 665 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,160 Do you not realize this guy ghosted us? 666 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:54,200 I called him two days after he did answer, but he didn't speak to us ever since. 667 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:55,200 Ever since. 668 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:56,880 So he ghosted us for real. 669 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:57,880 Yep. 670 00:27:57,880 --> 00:27:58,880 I was like, look at this. 671 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:00,360 Because we wanted to know, you know. 672 00:28:00,360 --> 00:28:02,080 I wanted to keep track of him. 673 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,280 I wanted to see them progress. 674 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:05,560 You know what I'm saying? 675 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:07,840 I wish I would have given him to my cousin now. 676 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:09,440 I didn't know anything about a cousin. 677 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:10,440 No. 678 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:11,440 And he blames me. 679 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:12,440 And I was like, well. 680 00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:13,440 I don't blame you. 681 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:14,960 Well, had I known about a cousin, that would have been a no-brainer. 682 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:15,960 A no-brainer. 683 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:16,960 You give him to your cousin. 684 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:17,960 I don't blame you. 685 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,240 My cousin wasn't ready at the time. 686 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:25,680 He was about to get married, still living in an apartment, and didn't have a home for 687 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:26,680 him. 688 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:28,080 Because we didn't mind keeping them for a little while long. 689 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:29,560 We didn't want them to go. 690 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:30,560 Right. 691 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,800 So I would have been more than happy to keep them. 692 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:37,920 But from there, we got the cat. 693 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:41,560 The cat that showed up one day while I was at work. 694 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:42,560 Yeah. 695 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:48,400 And the reason why that happened is one day, I was waiting to pick up the youngest from 696 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:49,640 swim practice. 697 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:55,120 And in our neighborhood, they have this Facebook group thing. 698 00:28:55,120 --> 00:29:00,560 And someone posted about a cat was abandoned at the park. 699 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:05,200 It was left in this little travel cage, locked in there. 700 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:06,200 Awful. 701 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:07,200 I don't know why. 702 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,440 Like I said, I never have a desire to get a cat. 703 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,920 And I don't know what it was. 704 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:15,560 And I showed London Rose, and I was like, you know, this was awful. 705 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,160 She's like, oh, Mom, we got to go get that cat. 706 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:19,160 Yeah. 707 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:20,520 And I was like, well, we can't have a cat. 708 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:21,520 We have four dogs. 709 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:22,520 And a rabbit. 710 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:23,520 And we have speedies. 711 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:24,520 It's not going to work out. 712 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:28,440 She's like, well, Mom, we can't let the cat just sit there overnight. 713 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:29,440 She was right. 714 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:32,960 And so we went to go pick, you know, see if the cat was there. 715 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:34,960 And we saw the pen, but the pen was wide open. 716 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:35,960 We didn't see a cat. 717 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,520 And then she's like, well, Mom, let me get out and go look. 718 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:43,680 And she went, walked around a little bit, and the cat was with some of the kids at the 719 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:44,680 park. 720 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:45,680 Right. 721 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,160 And, you know, and I asked them, I said, hey, are you guys going to take it? 722 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,920 No, we're just going to play with it for right now. 723 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:52,120 And I was like, well. 724 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,760 And the crazy part where the park is, there's so many houses around there. 725 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:57,800 I'm like, nobody thought to take this cat? 726 00:29:57,800 --> 00:29:58,880 No, no. 727 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,520 And it's like woods, woods on one side and the houses in other places. 728 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:06,280 So I said, you know what, let me just get this cat because it's not safe for them to 729 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:07,280 be out here. 730 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:08,280 It's inhumane. 731 00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:14,680 And the cat was clearly like, you know, sad and thin and, you know, and I got the cat 732 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:22,600 home and his, his pen was full of poop, just from the, from the big, the front to the back, 733 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:26,120 just full of old, dry poop. 734 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:27,920 And I cleaned out his pen. 735 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:33,000 I tried to wipe him off his, I bought some of those little kitty wipes to clean him up 736 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:39,040 because he had dry poop on him and stuff and then I put him in, you know, in one of the, 737 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:44,080 one of our dog's pens with my next door neighbor had a cat. 738 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:48,280 He gave me some food, you know, to get him through the night. 739 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:53,440 And I posted on our neighborhood chat that, hey, I have the cat. 740 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:55,640 I'm going to take him to the pound tomorrow. 741 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:57,540 The Humane Society. 742 00:30:57,540 --> 00:30:58,540 And I got DMs. 743 00:30:58,540 --> 00:31:00,880 Yeah, you get all these people saying, hey, I'll take the cat. 744 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:01,960 I got DMs. 745 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,760 One lady was like, my friend runs the Humane Society. 746 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,840 They said don't bring the cat because they don't have room for black cats. 747 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:08,840 They don't get adopted. 748 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,520 So I was like, okay, well there's my plan. 749 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:18,240 Then I had another person describe your cat because my friend's son is missing his cat 750 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:22,960 and I need to know, I was like, ooh, maybe this is, you know, ended up not being the 751 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:23,960 same cat. 752 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:27,240 But then when you think about it, that cat's not missing because someone put that cat there. 753 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:28,600 Yeah, somebody put him there. 754 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:35,200 And then I have one person who, you know, decided to take the cat. 755 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:39,280 She said, I'll take the cat, but I can't get the cat for two days. 756 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,720 So I'm like, okay, okay, well I can look after him for two days. 757 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:46,680 So I done went and bought the cat's kitty litter. 758 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,560 I done bought the little pan for the litter to go in. 759 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:50,560 You went all out. 760 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:54,000 I spent a grip just for his two nights stay. 761 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,000 And, you know, and I love pictures. 762 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,040 I took all these beautiful pictures of him because it was Halloween. 763 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:04,920 He's all on my pumpkins looking like a familiar, you know, familiar, is it a familiar, right? 764 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:06,480 And then so I'm sitting here two days later. 765 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,160 I was like, hey, the cat's ready for you to come one more time. 766 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:10,160 Where you at, lady? 767 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:11,440 Oh, I'm so sorry. 768 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:12,440 I have COVID. 769 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:13,440 And I was like, what? 770 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:14,440 And you know what I said? 771 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:19,360 Okay, we just leave him on the porch and you just reach out and get him when you come downstairs 772 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:20,360 or whatever. 773 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:21,360 And I was like, okay. 774 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:22,840 That's no excuse. 775 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:29,600 So we ended up keeping him for that two week span and we ended up falling in love with 776 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:30,600 him. 777 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:31,600 And what's so crazy? 778 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:32,600 We named him Sylvester. 779 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:39,920 Well, Derek didn't like him, but he was because after that first night, I only let him sleep 780 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:41,080 outside that one night. 781 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:44,240 And then after that, he's been in the house ever since. 782 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:48,560 And I learned that he's a really clean cat. 783 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:54,840 Cats are clean. 784 00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:59,040 He is the only animal that has never had an accident in the house. 785 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,120 And he's very particular. 786 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:05,880 I get side-eyed if I haven't cleaned out his litter box. 787 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,920 He's looking at me like, yo, woman, I don't touch something in here. 788 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:09,920 What's your problem? 789 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:10,920 Where your scoop? 790 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:12,720 Get this out so I can keep scooping around here. 791 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:13,720 I don't want to touch nothing. 792 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:15,440 That's when he meows really loud at you. 793 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:16,440 Yeah, he'll meow. 794 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:17,440 He yells at me. 795 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:18,720 He yells his commands. 796 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,840 I'm like, mondeur. 797 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:29,160 And it got me thinking, I tell Derek all the time, he's a clean cat. 798 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,880 He must have been miserable in that pen when we picked him up. 799 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,440 Because he wouldn't go back in. 800 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:35,440 It was probably torture to him. 801 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:37,400 He would not go back in that pen. 802 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:42,320 I've only seen him enter that pen once because now we use it for the rabbit. 803 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,480 There's blankets in there. 804 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,160 He didn't want to go into the pen even when you took him to the vet. 805 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:48,160 Yes. 806 00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,200 Because that pen was torturing him. 807 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,240 He was traumatizing that pen. 808 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:56,120 I called him once, curious about the pen. 809 00:33:56,120 --> 00:34:00,120 I see the rabbit laying in here and it doesn't stink. 810 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:05,160 He looked inquisitively and walked in. 811 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:06,160 He didn't stay long. 812 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,160 He laid down for a little bit and he came back out like, nah. 813 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,160 I remember this place. 814 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:12,160 Nope. 815 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:13,160 So. 816 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,160 But yeah, he's sly for sure. 817 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:18,400 He looks, he's a classic tuxedo cat. 818 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,280 He's a black cat and you named him Sylvester. 819 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:22,520 I named him Sylvester. 820 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:24,840 Because of Sylvester from Looney Tunes? 821 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:25,840 Yes. 822 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:30,680 He should have been called, I wish I would have had a chance to name him, T'Challa, the 823 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:32,960 black panther. 824 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:34,640 His full name is Sylvester Shade. 825 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:35,640 Oh Lord. 826 00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:37,840 And we spell Sylvester as like he comes from Transylvania. 827 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:42,640 It's like T-R-E, the end, Sylvester. 828 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:49,520 But what's crazy, I do kind of think I manifested Sylvester because it was during Halloween 829 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:50,520 time. 830 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:51,520 You were talking about a cat. 831 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:56,360 And we had been talking about black cats and I had put a portrait of a black cat dressed 832 00:34:56,360 --> 00:35:01,200 in a dress in our dining room, like a Victorian black cat. 833 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,200 And then I started making this black cat. 834 00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:05,200 A black cat. 835 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:07,200 A Halloween basket, right? 836 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:09,400 A bucket, a candy bucket. 837 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,880 And I was literally making that when we brought him home. 838 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:16,120 And I was like, did I manifest this cat? 839 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:23,800 And now I can't imagine living without him because he's very intelligent as well. 840 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:27,240 It's funny, you know, I was singing the song when you met your basket. 841 00:35:27,240 --> 00:35:30,240 Black cat, black cat, whoa. 842 00:35:30,240 --> 00:35:32,560 Then all of a sudden the black cat pops up at my house. 843 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,640 I'm like, what are we doing? 844 00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:39,160 I was out of town, right, for work and I come home like, whose cat is that? 845 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:42,880 And Derrick always talking about getting rid of this cat, getting rid of this cat. 846 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,780 And little do you know, the cat liked to sleep with Derrick at night. 847 00:35:46,780 --> 00:35:48,720 He's always in Derrick's arms. 848 00:35:48,720 --> 00:35:55,480 Oh, I have a ton of blackmail pictures of Derrick and this cat, the Derrick licking 849 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:58,600 Derrick on the lips, nose, cheeks, chin. 850 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:02,120 This cat has sexually harassed me ever since he's been in my house. 851 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:05,120 I don't like it. 852 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:06,800 Derrick love that cat and that cat loves him. 853 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:07,800 I do like that cat. 854 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:08,800 I ain't gonna say I love him. 855 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,280 I like him a lot, a lot. 856 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:17,680 So that's our, what you call them, fur babies in a nutshell. 857 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:18,680 Yes. 858 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:21,160 Four beagles, a rabbit, and a cat. 859 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:26,600 My only regret is that we gave the female puppies to that guy Pet Smart. 860 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:27,600 That's my only regret. 861 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:28,600 That's it. 862 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:30,640 Because I find myself thinking about them often. 863 00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:32,520 I cannot stop thinking about them. 864 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:34,400 I don't know why. 865 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:35,920 I regret that too. 866 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:39,520 And also with Dr. Speedy Hopps, I kind of have a regret. 867 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:43,800 We should have been training him when he first got there. 868 00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:44,800 Yes. 869 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:45,800 But we didn't know that you could train a rabbit. 870 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:46,800 Yes. 871 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:47,800 I feel- 872 00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:48,800 I just thought rabbits were stupid, but they're not. 873 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:52,920 I feel really bad because he had a crappy first couple of years of his life. 874 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:55,000 If you think about it, he was okay. 875 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:56,000 We thought we were doing good. 876 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:57,000 He had clean food, water. 877 00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:58,000 He had plenty of space to roam. 878 00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,000 Plenty of space to roam. 879 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:02,480 But he was not free roaming. 880 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:06,800 And then rabbits are, they like to be in groups. 881 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:09,840 So we kept him out of the family group. 882 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:10,840 But now he's part of the family. 883 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:11,840 And now he's with us. 884 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:17,000 And I love to see his interests. 885 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:21,760 When he's tired of being, he'll go to the kitchen to get his food. 886 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:26,600 And he'll lay next- we have a water fountain that constantly runs for the animals. 887 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,840 Because this is the thing about cats, running water. 888 00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:31,840 And he'll lay next to, we call it the watering hole. 889 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:32,840 The watering hole. 890 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:34,360 So he lays next to the watering hole. 891 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:40,280 And when he gets tired of there, and we can't find him, nine times out of ten, he has ran 892 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:41,280 upstairs to the classroom. 893 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:42,280 Ran upstairs to the classroom. 894 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:43,280 Yep. 895 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:44,280 And he'll lay in the classroom. 896 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:45,280 Just chill. 897 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,060 In front of the whiteboard. 898 00:37:47,060 --> 00:37:51,200 Because there's another food tray thing there. 899 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:52,920 He'll lay by that. 900 00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:56,400 And if he's not in the classroom, he's somewhere harassing the cat. 901 00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:57,400 Yeah. 902 00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:58,400 He has a couch. 903 00:37:58,400 --> 00:37:59,400 He'll lounge on his couch. 904 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:00,400 Yep. 905 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:04,200 And it's just interesting to see- He lounges on the couch, but the dogs want 906 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:05,200 to take it sometimes. 907 00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:06,200 Yeah. 908 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,960 And mind you, the couch is for a rabbit. 909 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:09,960 Rabbit. 910 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:13,360 And we got these big old beagles that squeeze their whole little body. 911 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:16,200 So they don't push the arms down to the side. 912 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:17,200 Everything's leaning over. 913 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:18,200 And then we get them a couch. 914 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:19,200 They don't even want to be on the couch. 915 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:20,200 Nope. 916 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:21,200 I'm like, what's wrong with y'all? 917 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:22,200 Nope. 918 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:23,200 They do. 919 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:24,200 They have their own couch. 920 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:25,600 In our bedroom, they have a nice one, too. 921 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:26,600 Yeah, a nice couch. 922 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:27,600 And they won't even sit on it. 923 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:29,000 You know what we forgot to mention? 924 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:30,000 What? 925 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:31,000 Ranger is- Oh. 926 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,040 Oh, how they look alike. 927 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:34,040 Okay. 928 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:37,760 So you know we have three black and tan, and we have the one tricolor, but they're faces. 929 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:38,760 Okay. 930 00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:41,200 So Chase, he's from the first litter. 931 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,960 He looks like our tricolor beagle, Scout. 932 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:45,840 They have the same exact faces. 933 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:53,440 And Ranger, the runt from the second litter, and Tracker, the one that don't listen, they 934 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:55,120 have the same face. 935 00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:58,640 So Ranger is quite attractive as well. 936 00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:07,360 And there was a time, our youngest, Axe, and she did an audition with Tracker. 937 00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:09,800 And she booked the job. 938 00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:11,920 And then they were like, hey, we want to book your dog, too. 939 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:12,920 And we're like, yay. 940 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:13,920 Right. 941 00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:17,960 But it just so happens that was during the time where Tracker had gotten into something. 942 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:18,960 He was losing fur. 943 00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:19,960 Yes. 944 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:20,960 We didn't know what the heck was going on. 945 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:21,960 He still got his fungus on his face. 946 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:22,960 We were like, what is this? 947 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:28,520 And so we did a quick switch of rules, and we hired Rank. 948 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:30,240 We just took Ranger. 949 00:39:30,240 --> 00:39:32,360 So Ranger had to go in for a fit in. 950 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:35,080 He had his own dressing room. 951 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:36,080 Because it was out of town. 952 00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:38,600 The booking was in Nashville. 953 00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:40,240 And then we had to leave and come back. 954 00:39:40,240 --> 00:39:43,840 So Ranger is now going on trips with us. 955 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:47,920 And that changed his bond with us. 956 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:51,720 He formed a really tight bond with me in particular. 957 00:39:51,720 --> 00:39:54,280 Because now I'm his person. 958 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:57,200 But let me tell y'all, he booked this job. 959 00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:06,600 It was a U-Break I Fix, a Shurion commercial, which is actually showing in stores now. 960 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:08,120 Because we had a friend. 961 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:12,880 And mind you, they booked this back in 2021. 962 00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:17,520 And we just saw it last week, 2024, July. 963 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:20,720 We were asking, hey, where can we see this commercial? 964 00:40:20,720 --> 00:40:21,720 We wouldn't get a response. 965 00:40:21,720 --> 00:40:22,720 No response. 966 00:40:22,720 --> 00:40:24,680 And we're talking about years looking. 967 00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:25,680 We're looking online. 968 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:26,680 We're talking about 2021. 969 00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:27,680 Now it's 2024. 970 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,200 And we're looking on social media. 971 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:35,880 And it just so happens one of our friends said, hey, I saw your baby in this commercial. 972 00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:37,480 And I was like, you did, girl? 973 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:38,480 What was it? 974 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:39,480 She described the commercial. 975 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:40,480 I was like, hold up. 976 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:41,480 We've been looking for that one. 977 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:42,480 I was like, where did you see it? 978 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:43,480 She was like, Tampa, Florida. 979 00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:44,480 I'm like, Tampa, Florida. 980 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:48,480 I was in a U-Break I Fix store. 981 00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:49,480 Right. 982 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:50,480 Getting my phone fixed. 983 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:52,920 I was like, that's not only our child. 984 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:53,920 That's our dog in that commercial. 985 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:55,640 And I was like, that's our dog. 986 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:56,640 That's Ranger. 987 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:57,640 And we did that commercial. 988 00:40:57,640 --> 00:40:59,320 It was a whole thing. 989 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:03,600 They had to have a special person there working with him to make sure they were giving him 990 00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:04,600 proper breaks. 991 00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:06,600 I mean, it was a lot. 992 00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:09,280 And we were on set by a good six hours. 993 00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:11,880 And I be, gosh darn it. 994 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:12,880 Commercial is 19 seconds. 995 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:13,880 And the commercial, 19 seconds. 996 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,400 And you only see him for like two seconds. 997 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:17,840 And then you see his backside. 998 00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:19,320 I was dying laughing when I saw that. 999 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:21,520 I was like, man, we were there for six, seven hours. 1000 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:24,040 We get a 19 second commercial. 1001 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,740 And so that was Ranger's first ever commercial. 1002 00:41:27,740 --> 00:41:32,160 And so lo and behold, I get a phone call from the agent. 1003 00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:35,400 Hey, I have this company, you know, this. 1004
