    My Flat Coated Retriever did it by pulling on the towel hanging on the handle.

    Dear Dog,

    It's pretty obvious how you got up on top of the piano-- the piano bench was a convenient stepping stool. What I really wonder about is why you decided to climb a baby grand.

    If you ever do it again, would you stay put up there long enough for me to get a picture?

    Dear Crazy Choc. Lab:

    Why do you stand there and bark at us like that! We played, we ate, we petted, we went outside, we played ball, we got treats, we petted some more. You know you will get sent to time out in your kennel (the extra one we keep in the family room just for time outs). You seem happy when we send you there, but the door is open. You could just go in on your own!


    Dear Cute Little Beagle:

    Why are you so food obsessed. You haven't missed a meal yet! I know its your linage, but really, so annoying.

    Dear Dog - you can tell time, can't you. How? How do you know it's time for your supper? At 4:30 you go in the kitchen and stand in front of the closet where your food is kept. By 4:40 you are pacing and crying if you haven't been fed. Then you act like Lassie and you come to get me in case I didn't hear you crying. (And yes, smittykitty - he is a beagle.)

    I used to have a flat coat. That dog was way too smart and curious. Eventually, we just started leaving doors open because she would open them all if they weren't locked.

    Dear dog,
    Yes it is hilarious when you steal my socks, but do you have to slobber on them?

    Dear Holly the snow bear,

    Yes you are a Great Pyrenees only 13 weeks old and almost as big as our full grown golden boy, Flynn.
    But just because you a still a baby doesn't mean you can do what ever you want.

    Don't:

    1. chase the cats. You're supposed to protect them. They are not your chew toys.
    2. chase the layer chickens. You're also supposed to protect them against racoons and such. They are not your chew toys.
    3. counter surf. There are no food within your reach on the counter anyway.
    4. grab your mom's shoes and chew them. They are not your chew toys. We put them away where you are not supposed to be able to reach.

    and please don't rough house with the golden boy inside the house. Flynn is just over a year old golden with lots of energy and so do you. But 120 pounds of dogs running around the house is just too much and even for the cats and our elderly pyrenees-golden mix Cody.

    Lastly, I need to be able to sleep without you practicing howling at night.

    13 weeks is a good time for a puppy class. Lots of exercise and mental stimulation - "a tired puppy is a good puppy."
