Default What I Learned Today

If it has been raining for forty days and forty nights, and your
dog is Not Amused about being outdoors, and you set up a mini
jumping course in your house, DO NOT WALK OVER THE JUMPS IF THE DOG
IS BEHIND YOU. I'm just sayin'... Because when the dog decides
it'd be really, *really* fun to follow right behind you, the result
is not entirely unlike being butted by a mountain goat.

Also, is boinging completely *over* the couch considered an off-
course?

Miss Brown is now crashed out on her blanket in my studio. She'll
be ready to play again in awhile, but for the time being, she's no
longer bouncing off the walls and/or my head.

The End.

We have a particularly large couch in our living room that stands out
in the middle with a little bookshelf on the back side of it, and my
mutt on occasion has decided to jump over it. He completely clears it
without touching any part of it. The bad part is that there is a
tiffany lamp on the top of the bookshelf and it wouldn't take much to
send it flying.

That's how my set-up is. The entire back of the couch is open to
the dining area. Apparently, that makes it an attractive nuisance
for bouncing over.

Yep! From floor to floor, without touching anything inbetween.

The bad part is that there is a tiffany lamp on the top of the
bookshelf and it wouldn't take much to send it flying.


Yikes!
