It's a Dog's Life

We are getting new furniture.  At the end of this month.  Oh, we can't wait.  But we have a small problem.


Actually two small problems of the canine kind.  How to keep the dogs off the furniture?  We have come up with several ideas ...


Covering the furniture in plastic covers (remember Marie's house in Everybody Loves Raymond? And her saying, "This is why we don't have nice things!" ... I can so relate!)


Crating the dogs during the day. Dean said it was too inhumane. I'm sure he's right.


Covering the furniture with old blankets.  Yes, we got beautiful new furniture and uglied it up with blankets.


And, then we decided to get them new beds in the hope that they would actually use them.


Dean picked them out today ...

this would be Zoey's cute little bed.  Please notice it is empty.  That is because it appears she would rather sleep here ...

so comfy! She has also been spotted by Zack's new bed ...

... key word was "by". Not on. And Zack?  Can you guess how much he loves his new bed?

Apparently not so much. Why am I not surprised?


Anyone know where we can get plastic slipcovers?
