Gone to the Dogs...

Shelby knows that she isn't allowed on the furniture. I know that she knows it! She hasn't been on the furniture at all during the last 12 years that I've known her. But-- this old dog is learning new tricks. Her new little sister, Lady, likes to sneak up on to the furniture in the sunroom. Since I don't spend a lot of time in there, she knows that she has free reign of her room. She usually hears me coming and gets down before I can correct her, though.

Shelby has watched her do this for a few weeks now and she takes it as a sign that it's suddenly a good idea to crawl up onto the sofa or the chair and take a decent nap, as long as no one is looking! Today I found her in my chair. Normally I would scream a loud "No!" or "Off!", but all I could do was run for the camera. Who could deny this sad face and those puppy dog eyes of anything? I know... I'm a sucker and this chair will probably be history as soon as Betty and King discover that they can get away with this too.
