Well Gary, in my younger years I did have dogs that thought exactly that. But with these two dogs and the two cats, no way.! They don't even think of getting on the furniture, let alone venturing onto the formal side of the house. My wife even boots them out of the house and onto the lani while she mops and vacuums, all the time with the lani doors wide open. They just sit there and watch her do her thing. As soon as she is done they come wandering back in. I do let Anchor slide though, he thinks the bath tub is furniture.[:I]

Sounds like good discipline to me, bigdogdad--something I'm still working on with my almost 3 year-old Black Labrador Retriever. However, think there maybe are a few people around who do follow DOG RULES.

BTW, that was a super picture you posted awhile back of your GT Turbo with your two big dogs sitting in back "looking at" your new dual-exhaust mod! [8D] Happy CruzN! [8)]

Sounds like my house. Both of mine are still sleeping on the waterbed right now. They might get up about 10am go out to do their business and jump back in bed!

Those are great. I just went with a friend to pick up her new puppy Sunday. I'll make sure she gets a copy of them!
