A tail of deception, intrigue, and revenge

by Lynn on March 1, 2013

In our house, no one is allowed to sit on the furniture.
Let me rephrase that. No DOGS are allowed on the furniture.

dog on couch

I made this rule perfectly clue to our resident canine.
I thought she understood. I thought she respected me.
I was sadly mistaken. My household rules are being ignored.

Does that look like dog hair on the couch?
And why does the hassock have a strange imprint?
Kinda in the shape of a delicate paw, no?

This morning, I found irrefutable proof that my leadership is being contested.

I ordered her off the couch. She obeyed. Reluctantly.
I lectured her. She curled up on the floor and fell asleep.
I picked up her dog bone and took a big bite. That got her attention.
And now I get to tell my friendly dentist why there is rawhide stuck between my teeth.

You know she’s guilty. She can’t even look you in the eyes. LOL!

I feed my dogs raw chicken. I think if I’m going to try to make a point with them I’ll do it with something other than their food.

The next time my cat sits on our couch, which he isn’t supposed to do either, I’m going to steal his little lion puppet and start chasing it around the house. We’ll see how much he likes me playing his favorite game with his favorite toy! That’ll teach him ;-)

What a cutie! I was just having the dogs on couch discussion over here the other day. Sometimes they really don’t listen!

Aw, Lynn, you mean you make her sleep on the FLOOR? How would you like to sleep on the floor? LOL

Hope your cold is better, my friend!

You think that’s bad? How about having to wait for the cat to stop playing in the bathtub, to take a shower?

Haha, you always make me laugh.
