I think dogs are the most amazing creatures; they give unconditional love.

For me they are the role model for being alive.

Fenway! You're FIRED!

Fenway is my only grand-dog. When he comes to visit, after a few short sessions of boot camp, to remind him of the rules, he is spoiled rotten throughout his stay.

I think he was a little surprised and perhaps dismayed when he was asked to help Stumpy with her chores.

There were two empty peanut butter jars that required immediate attention. Since Stumpy is a Union Dawg, She's only allowed to clean one peanut butter jar a day.

Fenway was willing to give bottle-washing a try

But failed, miserably.

Stumpy, being a dedicated employee, picked up his Fenway's slack (on over-time, of course).

"You know, Grandma, if you'd put that camera down, you could really help out here and I could keep my snout clean."

Fenway is thinking that it is way too much work for small pay...maybe Fenway needs a raise!

Sometimes, you just have to really get into your work.

Jan, I consider it my responsibility to teach Fenway a goood work ethic, iin between spoiling him!

Rottrover, that's as good an excuse as any, I suppose!

Mango, Fenway is an Australian Shepherd. Alf is a BMD. Fenway is VERY clever when it suits his purposes!

OP Pack, No spoon fed dogs allowed, here!

Wyatt, A raise! In this economy?

Khyra, Stumpy loves that I eat so much peanut butter!

Kari, It's beyond sad! It's PATHETIC!

TTH, Cleaning the peanut butter jars definately requires focus.

Roo, I draw the line at making the jars require more work!
