Water Pump cycling???? um???

I replaced my water pump in my Outback a few months ago because it would intermittently pulsate on. It became more pronounced and when I finally decided to really do something about it, I replaced the pump and never had a problem again.... until...

Our trip to South Dakota, we just returned from. But one night at Custer, SD, I woke up to what I thought was the sound of the water pump cycling on again! I woke up from a dead sleep. The water pump is located under a panel right beside the bed, so when it cycles on, I hear it. My wife sleeps through it, but I hear it.

So, I woke up from a dead sleep, sat up in bed, and sure enough, there it was the burrrrrr. burrrrrr, burrrrrrr, sound again. I immediately thought ... OH @*/%!!!!!! and what was worse, it was cycling about once every 3 or 4 seconds! OH my!

I sat there and listened, frustrated as everything, especially since we were 1300 miles from home! Then I realized, the sound was actually coming from the other side of the bed! And then I realized, our Dachshund, sleeping on the other side of my wife in bed was SNORING!

Boy, was I relieved!

LOL There are numerous anti-snore devices advertised in the media. Getting one that doggie would tolerate would present quite a challenge. :B

LOL. Now turn off the pump and you'll know it's just the dog.

Snoring is better than what our Longhaired Dachshund occasionally does
in the middle of the night, he'll wake you from a sound sleep wishing you had a gas mask.:E :R

My suggestion is to not change your Doxie....that would mean living through the puppy stage again and waiting two years before it becomes an adult.

Pets are fun aren't they!
