Little Help

You would never know that we have a doggie door.  Santa brought one and while Ben, Henry & Cupid have all learned to use the door they all have their quirks.  Henry’s quirk is that he will not walk through the door with anything in his mouth.  His favorite thing to do is to take a bone out by the pool and chew it while sunning himself.  So needless to say, whenever he has a bone to take outside he comes and sits by the door and patiently waits for me to open it for him.

I’m not exactly sure what he thinks.  I think he thinks he is too wide to go through the doggie door when he has something in his mouth.  Before we got the doggie door he was like that with the regular doors.  If he has something his mouth you have to open the door real wide for him to come in.  You would think we gave him bones that were 5 feet long!

Luna on the other hand won’t use the doggie door without some assistance.  She is scared to push the flap open.  Which makes no sense at all.  She will run full steam into the sliding glass door, but she it too timid to walk through a space that she knows is for sure open.  Go figure.  We are working with her on it though.
