We Go for a Ride!
Way back in the teens, Roux the First and Fergus, went on a car ride … and ended up getting their nails trimmed. Poor pups.
Roux II
His Nibs. Roux (Roux II; The Roo; Roux-Roux) just wants to be loved and not have those drops put in his eye even though he needs those drops. Emperor Roux II never really took to occupying the throne when Roux I departed over the rainbow bridge in 2021. He prefers others to do the heavy…
Bo
Bo (Bocephus, Bo Bo, Bo-regard Belvedere Come Here Boy!) gives judgemental side-eye when he either wants something or you’re doing something of which he disapproves. It’s like 99% disapproval. [If you get the “Oh Belvedere! Come Here Boy!” reference … you are old. .And watched much Looney Tunes growing up.]
Sleepy Dilly
Her Nibs takes a snooze on the couch.
Sir Charles
That face. Charles (King Sir Charles Phillip Arthur George; Choo-Choo; Charlie) is always being as sweet as anyone can be … because he knows it pays off.
Goose
Bright eyes. Goose (Goober-doo, Goo, Gooberlicious, Boose) wanted to know was I alright and why was I just lying there when there was attention needing to be paid. He is often concerned with these issues.

Princess Cordelia Ann Marie Antoinette the Regal
Now that the mother of the siblings, Loula (2009—27-Feb-2024) has crossed the Rainbow Bridge, Dilly is the one and only queen of the manse. She keeps her brothers in line, having no patience with Charlie or Goose. Roux she ignores; Bo she romps with occasionally. But there is no doubt about her royal hold on…
Cordelia Begs
Dilly is the only Basset Hound we’ve ever seen who can sit up and beg. Mealtimes are her preferred moments of the day.
Farewell Your Majesty!
From Frank: Our one-and-only majestic Roux died of pancreatitis this morning, less than a week away from what we have always celebrated as his birthday. He would have been about 10 years old.2021-02-15 05:35:16 He fought like hell for a week to surmount the pain and to power through the illness, but he hadn’t eaten…
