Jealous, Much?

I have absolutely no complaints about how our sweet dog, Annie has acclimated to Alex. She has accepted him as part of the pack/family and follows him throughout the house. Well, last night she clearly had enough.

Shortly after Alex and I were done playing on his handmade quilt given to Alex from my Mom. Annie came in from outside, looked at me and laid right on top of it. Normally, I would have not been that upset and just waited until she got up and threw it in the washing machine BUT it rained here all day yesterday. Annie has a penchant for laying in the mud after it rains. Don't ask me why neither Drew nor myself can seem to break her of this nasty habit. Anyway, she came close to ruining it and it is now in the washing machine for the second time to try and get all of the mud stains off of it. If she wasn't so cute I would have had to beat her. The best part is when she plopped her fat booty down on top of it she looked at me like "Yeah, what are you gonna do?" Poor thing realized that's the play quilt and if she wants to be played with she needs to lay on it too. Smart, but frustrating nonetheless.

Isn't it an adorable quilt? Annie thinks so, too.
