There are a few things that I became acutely aware of this morning concerning dogs....
1) They expect you to wake up bright eyed and bushy tailed at 5 freaking AM when they decide it is necessary to go outside and play "run around the yard like idiots."
2) They will not make coffee
3) They expect you to cheerfully feed them breakfast but will not fix a couple of slices of toast for you.
4) They will stand and complain loudly that you are not preparing their food fast enough to suit them and therefore they are in danger of starving to death.
5) Damian needs to be woke up to help feed dogs, at least in their opinion, Damian seems to agree.
6) Everyone in the house needs agility drills in the morning, this means that three of the dogs run from one end of the house to the other trying to knock people over, which in turns means anyone that gets caught in the race has to become part contortionist in order to maintain balance and avoid getting trampled.
7) Strangely, three of my dogs have somehow gotten it in their heads they have the ability to fly, which entails launching themselves off the backs of either of the two couches in the den or living room.
8) The concept of leisurely morning activities is not in their mindset.
9) Digging in the water bowl and splashing water everywhere is a perfectly acceptable way to clean the floor.
10) The fact that daddy is using a cane to aid in walking is secondary to the fact that the cane is the invitation to a tug of war, not with the cane, but the six foot length of manilla rope purchased just for that, and wrapping it around daddy's legs is the proper way of getting him to pick it up and play.
