Cody is nearly perfect! He really is! Such a good dog from the beginning. But he has a bad habit. A habit that has been around since his tiny puppy days. Oh his puppy days! He was so cute! His little tummy that drug the floor. I'm serious he had the fattest little tummy yet he wasn't fat! Man, he was a cute somewhat round thing!
Yes, Sime...you were a cutie as well! That cute innocent face hiding all your mischievous nature! (Just in case Simon begins to read soon! Lol!)
Anyway, getting back to the point! Cody's bad habit is roughing something up at the start of a new day. He's so excited to get up in the morning, he is bursting with energy. He quickly looks to rough something up. He's caused minor damage to their blankets or sweaters in the winter. Nothing majorly irritating to me as I know he doesn't mean to do what he ends up doing. However, lately Cody has moved on to bigger and better things to rough up...his or Simon's bed, is what he focuses his burst of energy on now. He sticks his head deep in the bed as he bites it with all of his might, then shakes his head vigorously back and forth. A few weeks ago while doing this he tore Simon's bed. After Cody got done and I was on the scene Simon's bed had stuffing falling out from quite a few places. Now we're onto another bed. I didn't replace Simon's bed I've been simply moving another bed from a different room into the hallway for Simon at bedtime. Well, yesterday morning Cody tore that bed! He got in big trouble. This morning he was verbally reminded not to touch either bed. Hopefully I can break him of this new bad habit. I just have to distract him from a pet bed and get him focused back on roughing up a toy every morning.
The boys have so many beds. Seriously! It's kind of ridiculous. But thanks to Cody the amount of beds is quickly being downsized!
