That Darn Well Again!

The other day Nissie and Nuttie went to D and were driving him nuts. Nuttie was running around like a goof and Nissie was doing her, "I'm staring at you and want something" routine. Finally, D got the hint and asked, "What do you want?" They got really excited so he said, "Show me!".

They ran to the bedroom with Nuttie barking and raising holy heck. D opened the closet door and it looked like a bomb went off in it. The gift bags were all over the place as was the ribbon and wrapping paper.

There was a huge lump in the Bear's sleeping pillow. She has this huge stuffed doggy pillow she sleeps on. Apparently she went digging for something (I'm guessing a mouse) and tore up the closet in the search.

When she didn't find it, she chewed a hole in the pillowcase of her bed and got herself stuck inside. The other dogs saw her and ran to D to tell him, "Timmy is stuck in the well again!"

D got her out of the pillow and proceeded to wash both the outer casing and the batting itself.
As you can see, the clean batting became a playground for the other two dogs. It's hard to tell but Nissie's collar is hooked on the batting and she was dragging it all over the kitchen. That caught Nutties attention so she attacked it, ripping it apart in an attempt (I'm sure) of saving her darling daughter.

My solution: Dump the pillowcase and batting and put the Bear on my old bathrobe she loves and a blanket. It apparently worked because she instantly went to sleep on the new bed without a moan.
After the fun with the batting, Nissie decided to put herself to bed and Nuttie decided she'd jump in my lap and groom herself. I was watching TV and although she quit for this picture, she was in a half circle trimming the nails on her back paws.

Yep, she was grooming herself in my lap. It's nice to know the humans are good for something.

I have to say, that having pets is certainly entertaining.
