Meet Bentley


So we love our dog- Probably a ridiculous amount. And for those of you that don't know and love her already, her name is Bentley. I don't remember at what point she learned what suckers we were for her, but I am sure it was confirmed to her around the same time that she decided that she no longer would drink out of her water bowl because she much preferred the running water in the bath tub. For at least a year now almost everytime we get home and greet her, she trots over to the bathroom door and sits patiently for us to open it and turn on the tub- PARCHED! I am sure from her long day of basking in the sun and taking the trash out of any cans around her. When I say she waits patiently, I mean she sits facing the door and if you don't open it within seconds she starts to paw at it, then scratch at it, the bark at you. We decided it probably wasn't that great for her to be going all day with out drinking because she was so used to drinking from the tub, so naturally we used tuff love and stopped letting her get drinks from the tub so she would learn that she needed to be a dog and drink from a bowl........FALSE, we went out and bought her a ridiculous dog dish......Suckers.

We love Bentley too, we want her. (Keep a very close eye on us and never leave her alone with us.)

Just some Z's in a pod..... said...

Ha! I know! When she has puppies you can have one. :) And by the way, I am totally offended about the blogs. You are so mean for getting the family to actually participate in communication regularly. It's nearly unforgivable......but I am a good person.

Ok, this is the most hilarious thing ever...Lucy does the same thing. She jumps in the tub and licks the faucet which makes a seriously annoying clanking sound until we turn on the water for her. STILL need Bentley and Lucy to meet. They would be best friends.
