So this week we have already had multiple catastrophies.
New Carpet in Living Room = BIG PROBLEMS
As you can tell we got new carpet in the living room and well my mom decided that she was going to make sure that the dogs couldn't get in the living room. I don't really enjoy the fact that the dogs aren't allowed into the living room
We have those baby gate things and my mom thought that she was going to be able to keep the dogs out of the living room by putting baby gates, lets put it this way, baby gates don't really equal dogs staying out of the living room it ends up with the dogs knocking the baby gate over in order to get into the room. Well than you get my mom mad that the gates got knocked over but than they didn't really listen. But now they understand that they get scolded if they don't stay in behind the gate.
Sporty isn't a dumb dog and he realizes why they don't call it the puppy dog face for nothing. He likes to make my mom upset by "talking"(barking in a low bark). When he talks, he acts like it is a real conversation. I think that it makes him seem more human. My mom gives into things that Sporty does, because when Sporty talks he usually gets his way, in this case he got to go into the living room and be in there for the rest of the night.
That leads me to another reason that I don't enjoy the fact that the dogs aren't allowed in the living room. One night, we had them in the front room seperated by the baby gates. I was doing my homework and once I finished I went to bed. Well, since I was super tired I forgot that the dogs were in the front room. I didn't realize that I had forgotten them until I woke up the next morning. Well my parents weren't too happy that I had forgotten my own dogs also. I got in trouble with my mom for not taking them outside during the night. "You know that is your only true responsibility, taking care of your dogs. I can't believe you forgot them..." Long story short. The baby gates are down adn I didn't get in trouble.
Another thing that happened this week is that the dogs both got in trouble for eating... No I don't mean that they got into trouble for eating random things throughout the house. The dogs both have been eating random pieces of wood that goes to different things throughout the house. For example, Harley went and chewed on the end of my bed. She's almost seven years old. I can't believe that a seven year old dog would actually chew on a random piece of furniture like that. Okay, I would understand if she were like two years old but really? Seven years old and still chewing on some random furniture. Sporty is no better he found out that he can chew on his bandana after he gets it off of his head. Well, I don't necessaraly like picking up random pieces of things that have bite marks all over them.
