Charlie the hunting dog!

All of our neighbors have had lots of problems with these little voles (a type of mouse that doesn't have much of a tail) and they dig tunnels all over their yards.  We have not had much of a problem.  Until NOW!  Only they aren't staying outside, they are coming in our house!  Last night I found some new kinds of traps that are like a tunnel and have some sticky tape inside which traps them and then the trap collapses on it and kills it.  I set two of them downstairs because Tanner said he had heard scurrying in his room at night.

This morning, Greg checked and we had caught one.  Yay!  I went downstairs a little later and saw two mice in his room.  I sent Charlie after them.  A few minutes later Charlie caught one and when I screamed he dropped it--it lay there and twitched and then died.  Charlie just looked at me like he was confused.  So I went and got him a treat.  Now he starts sniffing around again, and gets really excited because he spotted one behind a dresser.  I moved the dresser a bit, he sticks  his nose in there and lo and behold, he comes out with another one!  Yay!  What a good dog he is!
