Sparky and George

I’m putting together a camping kit for Sparky.  I got him a little bunny from Tractor Supply, and thought he should get acquainted before we go on a trip.  With Mr. Moose, Sparky was rough, with the chewing and the fetching.  With George, he’s protective.  In his crate, when Sparky takes a nap, he covers George up with some old t-shirts I leave in there.   When we play fetch with Mr. Moose, Sparky will drop Mr. Moose on command.  He doesn’t do that with George.  It took some convincing to get Sparky to leave George in the house when I took him out to take a dump.

The bunny is named George because the Abominable Snowman sounds like what Sparky would say if he could speak English.  The Bugs Bunny cartoon is referencing Of Mice and Men from John Steinbeck.
