Squeaky has always done that and he is 6 yers old. My husband and I play hide and seek with him...I'll hide and Squeaky finds me every time. He's so funny - I will run all around and when Kevin lets him out of the house, he IS like a bloodhound. His vet got a real kick out of it. It took a little while but I finally got him stopped from eating things - him eating a cricket was what prompted me to work on him about that. He still chases the crickets but he leaves them now instead of eating them.
