A Little Early Christmas Gift from Taffy

Holy Mackerel! While slogging through a major storage facility overhaul (a bunch of the stuff we own is currently stored in a school bus), i looked up to see my folks Heinz 57 / Retriever / Hound dog with something moving in her mouth. (This is the same dog that chases down the cats, grabs them by the scruff of their necks and wags them around the yard. The smallest and the most timid cats have drawn the line at being bitch-drug around, and it's nothing to be out working in the yard, see the cat run past with the dog hot on it's heels, then, in a minute or two, see the REVERSE ~ the dog hauling heinie with the cat in hot pursuit!) Anyway, back to the story of the moment ~ So, i'm looking at the dog, and her mouth, thinking "What in the world? Is it a mouse? Naw, too big. A teenaged squirrel? Naw, no tail." The whatever-it-is squirms, and i rush out of the bus to find a teeny, tiny baby rabbit in Taffy's mouth, not a HAIR of the little darling out of place!
