When Turbo thinks my other two are taking up to much space he will run over to me to get attention (I know he has told Cinnamon and Snoopy nana nana nana) as soon as they are close to me he runs and gets the spot he wants in the bed. I am trying very hard to catch a pic of Turbo before and after.

Smart boy! I used to have one that would use a similar trick to get a toy. If one of the others had a toy he wanted, he run outside and bark. When they ran outside, he'd run back in and take the toy! :banana:

OMG, mine are just as manipulative!! Just like Patrice's pupper Pogo will run to the back door and bark (some he KNOWS Pixel can not resist) and then run back and take his, treat, toy, comfy spot ect.

Little smartie pants Turbo is.

I have gotten a before pic but so far haven't the after pic where he is sitting in the bed by himself being so smug. Seems like I don't have the ditigal camera on at the right time. Will post pics of the before and after as soon as I can. This may take awhile. But I won't give up till I get the right after pic I want to show everyone the l@@k on his face when he thinks he has outsmarted everyone. He pulls this at least 3-4 times a week, so I am on camera patrol, wish me luck on catching this con artist.

Too smart for their own good sometimes, says I! Alex, of course, totally disagrees. She pulls a similar stunt ... we always have supper on the couch in front of the TV. As soon as I'm finished, and put the plate on the end table, she leaps off the couch and rushes into the kitchen "Mom! Mom! come quick!! Emergency kitchen stuff going on!!!!!" The first timel, I fell for it, at which point, she quickly doubled back and had her face licking up the crumbs on the plate berforeI could turn around! Now she looks disgruntled when I don't fall for it! :rotfl: Such silly puppers we got! :hearts: :hearts: :hearts:

My Shadow is a clever boy too. He has a fave toy, looks like a purple gingerbread man, that he keeps guard of when Reesee is around. One day I was eating & came into the living room & Shadow grabbed his toy, ran over to Reesee & put the toy in front of her & shoved it to her with his nose, then came to me begging for food!
He thought he could keep Reesee busy with the toy when he got all the "goodies" :rotfl: I couldn' t help but laugh out loud!
