Naughty Puppy

Tamino is being very very bad, and he is driving me up the wall! He steals things out of the dirty clothes, the cat's litter box, the pillow of the sofa, any shoes left at Tamino height.

He spends all day teasing Penny until she chastises him, then he spend 2 seconds looking repentant, then he's back at her. He chases the cats. He has not stopped moving since 7:00 this morning.

I've kept my temper, and I've not yelled at him. But when does this end!!

never thats the fun of having dogs :smt038

Just as Emma said "hopefully" it never ends
But when it does you'll miss it so much you won't know what to do

But Penny and Lucy aren't like that, but maybe that's because they're girls.

I mean Tamino jumps up on and walks on the back of the sofa, He's fallen off about 3 times but instead of learning his lesson, he goes right back.

I can't wait for him to "grow up" a bit, but I never want this part of his life to end. As it goes past soo fast. Poor Tamino, he has a stupid owner.

i know what you mean Kazz, Jazz is maturing just as you have posted about Sal doing, it's great that you know they are more sensible and trustworthy, but the silly ness is a joy that can never be replaced

then Kate just put that down to him being male :smt002

Kate, Star is the same, she raids the cat litter tray whenever she gets the chance, then heads for the cat food, then the bin.

She has not gone for dirty clothes yet

We've had to put a baby gate up to the toilet to stop Penny from raiding the litter box, the problem is now that the baby gate is high enough to let the cats in and keep Penny out it is still high enough for Tamino to get under it. It never fails to amaze me that a 35 kg dog can sneak so quietly past you that you never even know that she is going past you until you here her gulping the cat litter down.

And then all three of them go for the cat food (which has now been put on the kitchen table because most of the cat food isn't being eaten by the cats, we did a check, most of the 2.5 kg bags were being eaten by the dogs), then for the rubbish. Penny never touches the dirty clothes. But if you don't watch Lucy she chews the crotches out of dirty knickers. And then you find "murdered" knickers in your bed, not nice.

Where would we be without them?

We have a wooden baby gate to stop Star getting into the kitchen, we cut a bar off, so the cat could get in and out.

We have to change the way it opens every so often as Star can open it. It confuses her for a while, then she realises what way it opens

clever boxer!!
