Being outside dogs the majority of the time has its advantages. While the people are at work and school, Lexie and I hang out in the backyard, and Duchess is usually quarantined to the kitchen. The people have learned their lesson about leaving the big kitchen trashcan in little Duchess’ reach and usually put it up on the counter or on the other side of the gate in the living room. That’s all good and well until the little Houdini-of-a-Maltese breaks out of the gates, turns over a full trashcan at least 10 times her size and spreads its contents all over the living room. This photo is exhibit A. And yes, that’s a half of a can of pizza sauce spilled on the beige carpet. Lexie and I have alibis at the time of the crime. Duchess unfortunately is not so lucky. Being the only soul inside while the people are gone makes it easy to place blame on who did it. Besides, had it been Lexie, there would be no pizza sauce left to soak in the carpet.
