Video games for dogs.

I recently found the best entertainment for dogs--bunnies. My family rescued two little bunnies after Dad ran over their nest with the tractor. (I'm not sure you can call that rescuing, but we'll go with that. It sounds a lot nicer than "My family destroyed some bunnies' home, so we put them in a 1'x2' cage inside with nothing to do but eat and stare at plastic walls.")

Anyway, our puppies love, love, love the bunnies. Sophie took to them right away, going to check on the bunnies even before she went outside in the mornings. June was a little slower. It took her a couple of days to discover them. Once she did, she was enthralled. The bunny cage was on the dining room table, and June and Sophie stayed in the chair with their paws on the table staring into the cage for two days straight.

Thursday morning I woke up because June kept barking. She doesn't bark unless there's trouble, so I finally got up to check out the situation. The bunny cage was on the floor. (Luckily, the door hadn't opened; the bunnies were still inside.) I picked up the cage and put it back on the table. The puppies hopped back in the chair and went back to their bunny-watching. In the words of mom, it's like a video game for dogs. Here are a couple of pictures:
