No Brut? I'm in charge!!
Have you ever been waiting for someone to leave so you can have the house to yourself and do what you want without getting yelled at? That's what it is like for the Back Dogs when Brut goes for a ride with Daddy or is even outside for a long period. Silver, Fiona, Zappa and I party down!! Everyone needs a break from Brut's dictatorship every now and again and we tend to live it up. The treats come out, the forbidden toys come out and we turn the music up loud! It sounds horrible I know, I am such a mean mom, but Lord knows that boy deserve to be left out of the party sometimes and the rest of the Back Dogs need the reprieve.
If you haven't heard, Brut can be like the Drill Sargent keeping everyone in line and on time. He is always keeping the other three Back Dogs in check and at attention. So when he's out of the picture you can imagine the wild time we have when we become unleashed.
I'm sure it isn't fair to make a special occasion when Brut is away from his command post but it feels so good to breathe and loosen up for a few minutes without him harping down everyone's neck that I can't help myself. It may only be for a few minutes or it might be for a few hours, whatever the time is, it is precious.
Zappa especially likes razzing his mom, Silver and usually can't get close enough for any length of time to actually have a good round of bitey face. So when he gets the opportunity, he takes it. They can all roll on the floor and cause as much commotion as they want without being sent back to the barracks.
You did WHAT while I was gone??

I love reading about pack dynamics in other homes. It's amazing how many similar experiences we share...
Thanks for the wishes and nice words!
I'm sure Aschiuta deploys the "when the cat's away, the mice will play" trick.
But it's good for the rest of the back dogs to unwind once in a while. I love the last photo of Brut and I'm sure the caption fits perfectly.
Hmmmm, do you ever wonder about what fun Brut is having out there with Dad? :-) Just some food for thought - BOL.

The children will play while the parents are away!
I do the same thing here, when Leroy is outside I play with Sherman, if I try to play with Sherman when Leroy is around Leroy just jumps on Sherman and ticks him off and ruins the fun!
Thanks for sharing your pack stories!
We enjoy them every time and perhaps
Someday we'll have more addition to our
household!
Cheers

Oh, Brut, I feel your pain trying to keep order and discipline in the ranks! I must be on constant vigil with my siblings too!
Too much fun while the "Sarge" is away!!! I, too, love that last pic!
