I couldn't help but laugh when I read that poll. Things have gotten better, but my dogs have ruined so many things over the years.

I swear they know what I am saying too. Just last night, my husband and I were admiring the sleeping dogs, talking about how much they've matured. We were discussing how they've been sleeping inside with all sorts of temptations yet they haven't touched anything in months. We were so proud that they'd finally gotten to that point. We were talking about extending their privledges more now that we can trust them.

Well, lo and behold, I woke up this morning to a disaster. The same room they've slept in for months and they destroyed it right after our conversation! All the shoes were off the shelf and scattered throughout the room. The cushions were off the couch, a pillow was chewed up, towels were strewn all over (where did those come from?!)... I hurried up and cleaned up the mess before hubby woke up. I didn't want him to change his mind about giving them more inside privledges.
