As you can tell from Fluffy McBeckham, cold weather is officially here in San Diego, and by “cold weather” we mean in the mid-to-low sixties. Brrrrr. Snow cannot be far behind or, at the very least, that “killing frost” from that Wildfire song. We’ve never had a basset quite as thick-coated as Beckham, but he’s from a breeder in Oklahoma so they must breed them hairier there or something. You know, like New York Italians. The men also.
Fenway remains sleek as a seal which would explain why he spends most of the day under the comforter at the end of the bed.
Yes. That is Fenway trying to force his way into the top shot. He’s such a camera whore.

Woooohoooooo!!!!
Iz so cold in Fenix that we haz lit a fire!
hey it was 44 when I got up this morning at 5:30. No matter which way you slice it, that’s frickin’ freezing.
LOVE my gorgeous boys!!!!!
Nice to see that Beckham can still glower when he feels like it.
I can’t judge how cold it is from the shots, as I can’t see their nipples, nor any evidence of shrinkage…
Rabble rouser.
Just let sleeping Italians lie.
Fenway is a really photogenic dog. He is your opportunity to become stage parents.
like New York Italians.
Beckham does have certain Godfather qualities. I wouldn’t want to owe him money, just sayin’.
lol – Fenway’s hoggin’ shot had me thinking of that giant gull walking behind the newsman’s desk. and yes, glowering Becks, like a Mandarin
I’ve got a foot and a half of snow outside, don’t start with me tonight.
Fenway is behind Beckham and still looks bigger than Beckham. Rather like that Gary Larsen cartoon of the rear view mirror, which has the caption “Objects in mirror are larger than they appear”.
BTW, once you get a little ways in from the beach (say, Sorrento Valley), San Diego can get icy. AND the coyotes head for the beach in the winter because it is so much colder farther inland.
Beckham looks kind of like Marlo Thomas would if she hadn’t had her face done. His ears match her hair flip exactly: That Dog!
Here in Oklahoma, we can tell how hard the winter’s going to be by looking at the coats on the bassets. I was just sayin’ to The Woman yesterday, “Maw, looks like a cold one this year. I was just ridin’ the north 40, and the bassets were mighty wooly.”
Judas Priest! Beckham looks like he’s about to pronounce a sentence of burning at the stake on some poor witch in that first pic.
You may want to consider getting Mrs. TBOGG a Dyson vac for christmas, cause when that beast “blows” his winter coat next spring, you’re going to be up to your eyeballs in Beckham fur.

TBogg strikes me as the kind of manly man who would use his enviable masculine musculature to spare his dearest heart the extended physical effort involved in vaccuuming.
I would click ‘em to big ‘em, but I can’t.
Oh, and where is my Basset calender? Also.
We actually already own a Dyson…however, the bedroon in which the boys mainly dwell has wood flooring. Beckham seems to be in a CONSTANT state of blowing his coat and so the challenge is keeping up with the gerbil sized balls of fur that invade the corners, and under the furniture and behind the desk….etc.
Basset calendar is a GREAT idea. HINT HINT HINT.
it’s three days later, and that top pic still brings a giggle – what a card!
