What is my role?

As I've mentioned before, we have a bit of a mouse problem at the moment, today the peep and Floyd were in the hooman bedroom, and Floyd started sniffing like crazy at a box against a wall.

She called for me and Him. She got me to stand on the other side of the box while He lifted it away to  reveal what they suspected was a mouse.


They moved the box, and the mouse went running past me and... I started sniffing Her leg.

She laughed at me. That's right, my very own peep LAUGHED at me... She then went further and asked... "What sort of terrier ARE you Dougall?!"

Seriously?

What sort of terrier am I?


Obviously I am a CUTE one, who's sole purpose in life is to be cute, cuddled and to enjoy the puppy perks in life.

I'm not here to control the wildlife... Am I?

  3. You are certainly NOT one of those MOUSE TERRIERS...
    and THEREFORE You are NOT required to do ANYTHINGY in a situation like this... and of COURSE Floyd... being a BOXer... did do his pawt.
    We see NO problem here... except fur the fact that "SHE" dared to laugh at you.

  5. I have a cat you can borrow if you need one. JK
    Hope you can catch the little bugger they are
    destroyers of stuff. You need to keep being a
    cutie, Maybe Floyd can catch the mouse.

  7. We have crickets....a multitude of crickets. But I must say the one time we had a mouse, we were vigilant. It escaped, but must have told the others to stay out of OUR house.

    You're doing a bang up job of being cute.

  8. In my experience, the terrier girls are the serious hunters while the boys, well, they prefer dinner brought to them in a dish.

  11. Yuppers, I thinks Miro and Emily have it right...the gurl terriers are the ratters and critter chasers, and the boys...well, the boys just sit and stare. Hey, if your peeps need me, I can be there in a flash! I'll rid your estate of all critters free of charge! Okays, maybe not FREE of charge..there will be a fee of snacks and margaritas....not necessarily in that order....☺
    Good job Floydie btw! BOL
    Kisses,
    Ruby ♥

  13. Dougall, you are perfect just as you are. it is your human's job to protect you from the nasty wildlife! You are to be spoiled, and babied. I would think that is obvious! that is why humans have traps and even cats (as a last resort, of course)

  14. Too right, if they want a mouser they should get a cat!

  15. Why would you want that rodent in your mouth. You know if you caught the darn thing why you would have to swallow then they would be yelling oh how gross.
    Thanks for wishing me well Dougall, having a bum that hurts is no fun.

  16. Just because you are supposed to be a ratter doesn't mean that you have to do it. YUCK!

  17. Although my brother is an expert mouser I have never caught anything bigger than a gecko.
