re: #39 engineer dog
there seems to be a small but select assortment that is “viewing this thread”
you must be in a different time zone - it’s before eleven here in CA
as for bed jumping, here in the Bear Cabin fur bearing mammals are banned from the bedroom during sleeping hours because of this tendancy
ah, well, I like furry mammals in the bed with me. Monster Puppy has earned run of the bedroom at night, but mostly stays in his crate. I was gone all day, so he was excited to get to see me.
I have one little girl dog who is a total bed bug. She demands that she be cuddled. As my kid is too old to cuddle, she satisifies my mommy need. In the winter, all the animals are on the bed (even Cat Overlord).
