Polly & Georgie would be the first to tell you how unappreciated they are. I didn't fully understand the extent of the injustice until this week, when I realized that the puppies are now tall enough to put their paws on the kitchen counter.
Although my family had a black Lab when I was a baby, in my adult life I have had only short dogs (miniature dachsunds, French bulldogs, pugs, etc.).
After our last two cats went to heaven, I stopped worrying about leaving things on the kitchen counter. I could set a stick of butter out to soften before baking with it. I could prepare a meal and walk from the microwave to the sink without fearing that a dog would steal a bowl of vegetables, the dish towel, or a kitchen sponge (just think of the wonderful smells and flavors in a used kitchen sponge!).
Those days are over. So, so, over.

My oven is now the storage place because my almost two 12 yr old, old ladies have discovered stealing off the counters! They particularly like when a dozen Everything bagels get left out. Then they LAUGH at me when I catch them. Evil doggies
