Yah, what is it with the paper??? tissue, tp, paper towels, mail...any paper..
and I always knew there was a reason I don't exercise i.e. buy a tread mill...
My problem is the cats help the dogs. I put things on the counters so the dogs can't get to them and the cats get on the counters and throw things down to the dogs. One of these days I'm gonna catch it on video, I swear. Once, Buster threw an entire box of Puffs down to the girls and sat there on the counter very smug while they made mince meat of the tissues.
The piercing bark comes into play when Baby narcs out Bug. Tonight Buffy got on the counter and tossed one of Bear's rawhides to Bug (only Bear and Baxter get rawhides) Bug was racing through the house with Baby in hot pursuit. The race is not unusual and Baby barking while they race is not unusual, but Baby only does the piercing bark during the race when Bug has something she should not have. It is her 'I'm telling mommy' bark. Sure enough, Bug had the rawhide. Baby has probably saved Bug's life on a number of occasions.
Oh, and we leave animal planet on whenever we leave the house. Let them party without interference (that and make sure that even the cats can't get to the rawhides).
