Um. We may have a problem.

Bentlee has adjusted well to our family,

and we love him so much.

He's a smart dog.

He can sit,

(almost "shake.")

He listens when we tell him to be quiet,

 or to go to his bed &

He's FINALLY house-trained.

(HALLELUJAH!)

But, there is ONE thing.

 we cannot, and I mean

(CANNOT)

 break him from getting on the couch.

I'm about ready to lose my mind.

Now, I know what you're thinking:

It's MY own fault.

Yeah, yeah... I KNOW.

But, still.

It sucks.

We continue to spank him,

and kennel him when he does it,

but as soon as the lights are off , the T.V.

 is on, and I'm cuddled with my blanket.

There he is:

Right beside me, whining.

Then, before I know it. He's ON me,

and burrowing his GROWING body

between the couch and me.

So, we say "no" to him, spank him, and kennel him... AGAIN.

 But, STILL have a "re-peat"

the next time.

(SIGH)

He's worse than a child.
