Our top story; "The dog ate the homework." |
Bentley: “Happy Holidays y’all! Welcome to the Christmas edition of BFTB Channel
7 NETWoof News. I am your Ho-Ho-Hound Bentley
Basset and along with my co-elf Pierre, we are sniffing out all the good news
you need to know.”
Pierre:
“How come you get to be Ho-Ho-Hound and I’m an elf? Maybe I want to be Pierre Paws or something
cool like that. Just sayin’…”
Bentley: “Well, I’m just saying that
you’d better watch out, you better not cry, you better not pout, and I’m telling
you why. You can’t be Pierre Paws,
because I am already Ho-Ho-Hound. It’s
just that “ho” is in my name. That makes
it the law. Now, let’s get back to the
news Elf Boy.”
Pierre:
“It’s all fun and games until you get a lump of coal. I do know one dog that should be scared of
getting some coal in his stocking. Roscoe,
a five-year old mixed breed decided his human sister’s diorama of a Middle Ages
farm would taste really great. The Texas
sophomore had completed her project with plastic animals, grass, wood, and
metal wire fencing. When the teen’s mom
saw the project in shambles, with a lot of pieces missing, Roscoe was rushed to
the emergency vet. Sure enough, the vet
confirmed the dog had bit most of the farm.
Luckily, with the use of an endoscope, the farm pieces were
removed. The student took an x-ray as
proof to her AP World History teacher. She
was allowed extra time to rebuild the farm.”
Bentley: “E-I-E-I-Oww! That is one lesson they both learned the hard
way. Here is one dog that will definitely
be on Santa’s nice list. Daisy is a
brown and white Pit Bull. She had been
living on a boat in Sausalito with her human.
That is until a torrential rainstorm came by and sunk his boat. Her owner had gone to help a friend and
returned to see the mast of his home in the water. He feared that everything he loved in the
world was lost to the storm, including his best friend. Little did he know that Daisy had swum 1 ½ miles
during the dark storm and walked to a local church. She knew this place, because her owner took
her there when he needed a meal. When
the owner showed up to eat one Friday, the reverend asked him about the
dog. The man explained the dog was
gone. The reverend than asked if the dog’s
name was ‘Babe.’ The man explained that
was her name before she was his. It was
then the man of cloth explained the dog showed up and seemed to be waiting for
him. They reunited with licks, wags, and
tears of joy.
Pierre:
“I’m so glad that Daisy is back with her human. This last story is about a man and dog that
spend all of their time together. A UK
man gave up his job, home, and possessions to bike with his Collie, Nero. He had a welder modify his bicycle with a
shelf for Nero to sit on. The two
traveled 2,500 miles in two months. The
journey was such a success that the team is going to take on Europe!”

"We will be tracking Santa Paws all of Christmas Eve." |
Bentley: “I’m thinking Nero is going
to need to learn how to back pedal. I
want all of our readers to know that we are on top of Santa tracking. None of you dogs or cats want to be caught
sniffing around when you should be asleep.
As you can see from our Sleigh Tracker, we will have the best in dog
tracking systems on the jolly old soul.”
Pierre:
“Are we going to have a white Christmas? I would really like to build a snowman. Do you wanna build a snowman?”
Bentley: “Just let it go, Pierre. The only thing frozen around here will be
some treats if we’re lucky. There is a
zero chance of snow on the bayou this Christmas. In fact, it will be a sunny 64˚ on the big
day. My sweetie, Emma and some of our
other friends in the north may have themselves the white Christmas that we can
only dream of here.

Pierre:
“Well, I have to confess, my feelings aren’t hurt at the idea of
a sunny day. I’m afraid that I’d get
lost in a bunch of snow. Speaking of
getting lost reminds me of our Christmas card count. I’m sure Gramma is hoping most of her cards
were lost in the mail. TeeHee!
Bentley: “I’m sure their cards will
come flooding in any day. *spit, sputter, snicker! We do want to thank everybody for all of our
paper and ecards. Each one has brought a
smile to our faces and a wag to our tails.
From BFTB NETWoof News, this is Bentley Ho-Ho-Hound and Pierre Paws
saying “Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah to all and be sure to grab some holiday happy!”
