He is adorable - you big meanie! You have longer legs than him too! I can just picture him going Hmmm flop and just watching and waiting - I reckon he really planned for you to fall over so he could have giggles LOL
I dont think dropping the lead and walking away would work, i think he'd just continue to lie there and claim VICTORY. Lol!

Monty used to get tired of walking when he was a pup and we had to carry him - he soon grew out of it or rather he soon grew and i couldn't carry him anymore!!
im sure he would have loved to have been carried, but i have difficultly lifting him into the car! (curse of short legs! lol)
he's a stubborn beast when he wants to be though, no amount of biscuits can move him sometimes!
i have a new weapon now though which is working wonders, its called cheese

its refreshing and very reassuring hearing someone say that he looks fit and healthy for a change. You wouldnt believe the amount of people that tell me that my dog is too thin, and do i feed him?
it gets me worried sometimes but the vet says hes a perfect weight and looks great so thats good enough for me!
i think he's a nice weight, you can see the outlines of his ribs but they have a nice covering and he has a waist, which most Bassets i've seen havent.
Thanks Claire! I am a terrible mummy, making him walk all the way (3 minutes) home!
he really has got it down to a fine art now
such a little character!
