I’ve been living in my house for 2 years now and during this time BamBam has never been in what is now my office. I don’t know why, the door is always open, he could go in and go out as he please. He has never been in mom’s bedroom either but that has been good because that is Shannons room and her retreat. Twix goes in there of course and as sweet as she is she accepts it. Anyway, BamBam has always been in the hallway outside my office and just looking at me.

Yesterday I decided that I would clear off the bed and put a blanket on there so the dogs could be with me when I’m working. Twix was always at my feet but you have to admit, the bed is more comfy and only the best for my boys, right? So project clean office began. Once I was done I took BamBam in his collar and walked with him into the office, making him realize that he was welcome there. It wasn’t a punish. He is a part of the family! Good Lord he was scared but once the entire body was in and I let go of the collar he realized that it was okay. Twix thought it was awesome with the bed and went straight up, and BamBam followed. I think it took less than 5 minutes for both dogs to find their spot on the bed, lay down and be sound asleep.

My next project is to repaint this room but that ain’t happening today! I haven’t decided what colors yet so until then I’ll wait. But the walls in here are so ugly!
