Our mini dachshund couldn't resist a folded blanket on the bed.

Set a folded blanket on the bed and that dog had to root through it. He would pull and prod it, flip and flop the blanket around. Tunnel under it to the other side. Fluff it up some more. Then flop on top, smack dab in the middle, and then wiggle around it on his back.

I used to wait till something else caught his attention and he moved off from the blanket. Then I would fold it back up nice and crisp, and place it somewhere else on the bed.

He would start all over till he got it fluffed back up to his liking

Priceless! We had a Boston Terrier that did that. We miss him.

I used to stay at my Mothers when I had projects in the City. I would take my cat Sniper (Died at 21 yrs). My Mom lives in a condo, eleven stories up. I would never have any schedule. Yet my Mom noticed that the cat could sleep all day, yet get up and wait for me just "prior" to my arrival. No possibility of hearing my truck nor anything like that. And besides, her getting up was a little before me getting very near.

No matter where our two Bostons are in the house, or how sound asleep they are, nor how deliberately quiet I try to be, I cannot take the wrapper off a slice of cheese without them standing there looking at me before I can get it unwrapped. Same for opening the cookie jar, and my package of beef jerky.

Kali the Lizard dog. My dog goes crazy chasing lizards. One day I left my outdoor carpets from the RV laying on the ground. Her craziest move is at about 30 seconds.

Cool! Bostons are fun pets. Our two like to play "chase" around the yard until they are pooped. They also have a game I call "Stick". They will pick up a stick, both dogs will grab hold of it, and they run around the yard, side by side, holding the stick...or they will play chase, and try to get the stick away from the other. One will pick up the stick, run up to the other, show them the stick, and off they go!

They are also wooses...all of them. They don't like to go outside on the grass if it's a little bit wet, or frosty, or if it's raining just a little bit, but today, they have been out three times playing chase...it is below 20 degrees, and there is about 2 inches of ice and snow on the grass. like they say, they are just children with hair on them.

Like 2LaneCruiser, my dogs are the same. Impossible to open the fridge door or a bag of sweets (or anything) without our 3 'hearing' it. I can take a bag of lollies into the bedroom to open them and they will beat the door down trying to get in. Then if you pretend you haven't got anything they look at you like you are a rotten sod and follow you till you give in.
Our food is their food (or so they believe)

My current and previous lab is/was the same way. They could be sound asleep, two rooms away yet all I need to do is open the refrigerator door and take out the package of cheese and have a brown dog waiting for me to share. The funny thing is that both of my trucks have open boxes of treats right next to Ruger's head; but he won't get into them and waits for me to reach in and take one out.

Thats how it is in our house with tater chips and starburst jelly beans.

Tater chips, you will have her undivided attention.

You will get hurt if you have Starburst jelly beans and don't give her a preemptive call before opening the bag.

If she is in the other room, she will come running and launch herself into your lap
