The Mouse Hunter

Yes, you read that right. And in the picture below--it's the face on the right. First of all, it's pretty disgusting to even think of mice being in your house....second of all, it's SO much more gross to think that your part beagle/ part cattle dog tracks them down, kills them, and leaves them on the floor for yours truly to pick up and throw away (before the kids freak out). I didn't know we had our little mice friends until yesterday, we let Miley in the house to spend some quality time with her--when she gets frantic, sniffing along the ground like a crazy dog, and eventually finds a poor little mouse and proceeds to "play" with it, thus killing it. Thank you, Miley. But, come on--that's SO gross! I don't even want to say how many she's found in the past 24 hours.
Well, I plugged up some holes around some pipes, so hopefully this will prevent any more mice from finding their way into the mouse-hunter's territory, but until then...I'd better go check the floors for any more surprises!

We had mice in our house in Edmond too! We actually trapped a couple of them behind the refrigerator and sucked them up with the shop-vac!! We didn't have a dog to take care of them for us! Hope they stay out of your house!
