Don’t snooze…he will stealthily get up on the couch with you and squash you…

He can’t. Even when inside he is on his leash and tied to the piano. Don’t want him house wandering just yet.

Let me tell you a story about an 8 week old Boxer bitch pup I knew. And then tell me he can’t bring that piano over to you…

Buffy was our first Boxer bitch. I haven’t got a digital photo of her because she was pre-digital cameras, but she was a good looking redhead. The night we brought her home we put her in the kitchen in a childrens wooden playpen with appropriate bedding and water. We went to bed a little way up the hallway, with Duke, our adult male Boxer in the bedroom with us. She cried pitifully. Then it went quiet. Then there was a banging and a crashing and Buffy and the playpen came out of the kitchen up the hall and couldn’t quite navigate into the bedroom…we let her sleep with Duke in his basket. And we never tried the separating the new puppy thing again. So never say a dog can’t move the furniture!

Heh. On the bike race yesterday a dog ran on the road to join in, dragging the chair he was tied to.
