The Baby Gate Saga Continues...

Once Simone destroyed the big baby gate, we had to use our spare little one to help set up the KT boundary. The first day we used the back-up, we came home to find it on the floor with numerous teeth marks in it, and a certain puppy lying on the couch. So, the next day we tried lodging it in a little more tightly, and moved a little higher up. When we got home that night, the gate was intact, but Simone was still on the couch in the living room...it seems that she jumped over the gate to let herself into the living room. We realized we were fighting a battle we just weren't going to win anymore. Simone has decided there will not be KT any more, and that's that. So, we compromised: we now close all the bedroom doors, and leave her free downstairs to roam as she pleases. Since we know she's headed right for the couches, we went ahead and covered them with sheets. When we arrived home that first night after she won her freedom, we found that she'd had a field day with the couch cushions, pushing them down so they were no longer covered by the sheets, and then lying on top of them! Here she inspects her handiwork...
