Dogs and dining tables do not mix
Last weekend, I visited a friend that I haven’t seen for some time. She and her partner own a bulldog, which I hate. It’s not that I hate bulldogs you understand, in fact I quite like them and even considered purchasing one once, but it’s her bulldog I don’t like.
The dog has been ruined by its owners. I tried to sit down to drink a cup of tea with my friend, which proved impossible because the dog would insist on trying to jump all over me. My friend made some meagre attempt to get the dog away but it is perfectly apparent who the leader of the pack is in that household – and it is not human.
But the thing that really gets me is actually the brand new oak dining table that she has recently purchased. It is absolutely gorgeous – as dining tables go – and yet she still allows the dog to eat at the table. Yes, I did actually say that – the dog sits and eats at the table.
Anyway, to get on with my story, my friend was complaining about the dog and how she was so misbehaved. The dog had jumped up on this brand new oak dining table (you can see here the type I mean) and so the table was now scratched. My friend was seriously perplexed about how and why this could have happened. Try bringing your dog up properly, training her properly and not letting her sit at the table in the first place!
