Wabbit Season!

Just now I let Buster and Gracie out into the back yard for a romp. (Despite the doggie doors, they still like being let out by Daddy.) It was light enough out that I could watch them. Suddenly Buster started growling and raced across the yard, hot on the heels of a rabbit.

It's not unusual for there to be a rabbit in the yard. There have been quite a few occasions lately on which I've seen a rabbit out there. (I phrase it thus awkwardly in order to make it clear that I have no idea whether it's been the same rabbit....) The fencing is widely spaced enough that they can get in and out easily, as this rabbit did. It squirted through the fence, went about a foot further, stopped, turned around, and looked at Buster. I'd almost swear it was taunting him. He growled again and rushed the fence, and the rabbit hopped away.

I do wonder what I'll do if he ever manages to catch one.
