I bet I could go on and on. I will keep adding to this list, and it could probably get to 100 without much of an effort. When I'm home and realize she's stolen something, I have to chase her around and around the dining room table or around and around the couch. She never does figure out, though, that when she runs into the kitchen she has trapped herself. So why do we keep this scallywag? Just look at that face!
(SHE USES ME AS A CUSHION TOO.)
BOTH DOGS WERE SLEEPING JUST BEFORE THIS PHOTO WAS SNAPPED
