The Boon Moments...

What do you do when you have a laundry room full of food, and a 200 lb dog who has not only learned how to open the door, but has also learned to shut himself in there?

I will tell you. Nothing! There isn't anything you can do short of booby trapping the door with barbed wire! And it's not like we can put the food up higher, because there isn't an area that he can't reach. If tempted enough, he can stand on his hind legs and clear the top shelves. He is taller than I am.

So the mystery remains, how is Boon getting this door opened? It is a round handle? I don't get it. Could this dog actually be smarter than me?

We left for dinner with the whole family tonight, to see our cousin off. (He is a Marine, and leaving for Japan on Saturday for 2 years.) When we arrived back home, Boon was not at the front door to greet us, only Byron. This is usually not a good sign. We scanned room to room, to see what it was this time that would be laying chewed to pieces on a floor. Nothing. Suddenly we heard the whimpering coming from the laundry shoot. My husband looked at me, and I at him. Didn't you shut the door I asked? Yes, of course I did. I made sure it was shut tight. He replied.

As bad as things could have been, all that was chewed was an empty old gift bag. Dumb dog, he could of had Pop Tarts! Okay so he's not smarter.

I know what we will be doing this weekend, putting some baby locks on the doors! You can't really stay too mad at that face!
