he tried to get some sleep last night, but it didnt work. what started out as a nice retreat turned into a smush fest..
we all went to sleep around 11.. ruby got to sleep in bed with us, as she had a long day and was tired out.. so she got to sleep in bed. then comes rufus, he jumps in bed. then jesse.. so its me, hubby, 3 dogs all in a queen size bed.
during the night rufus jumped off the bed as it was too crowded..i heard him jump off and figured he wanted more room. a few hours later ruby woke up.. its now 3 am, and she wants to play.. NOT happening... so , instead of turning the light on and waking up hubby, i just grab her in the dark and toss her in her crate on my side of the bed and shut the door.. not wondering WHY i have to stuff her in the crate cause the door wont shut.. i am half awake.. i go back to bed, i fall asleep.. then i wake up cause rufus still hasnt come back into the bed, so i start whispering. Rufus, back to bed.. Rufus, up up up.. Rufus, back to bed... and all i hear is whimpering/whining from him.. sounds like he is on the floor .. so i keep calling him, and he keeps whining back.. but i cant see him.. i dont want to turn the light on , so i am like where the hell is he... wtf is going on, he is whining, and sounds like he is right next to my side of the bed, but he is not under the bed, not next to the bed, where the hell is he?
so he whines LOUDER.. and something tells me to turn the light on.. to which i turn the light on, put my glasses on, and look in rubys crate....
lo and behold, there is rufus AND ruby looking at me thru the vari kennel windows.... i start cracking up, and by now jamie is awake , and he asks me what is so funny, so i manage to get out "look in rubys crate" and continue to crack up... when i put ruby back in her crate at 3am i didnt turn the light on, i just picked her up and put her in her crate, and pushed her little butt in, and shut the door.. not knowing that RUFUS was sleeping in her crate... i guess it got too smooshed in there for the both of them since its a small crate, and me calling rufus got him to whine ....
mind you its a vari kennel that is big enough for a 50 lb dog, but had a 62 lb and a 40 lb dog smushed together in the crate....
so after me and jamie finish cracking up, we open the crate door and out comes ruby and then rufus....
i would never have thought in a million years he would go in her crate to sleep when he has run of the house at night.... or a nice warm bed to sleep on...
so , from now on i plan to check rubys crate to make sure rufus isnt curled up in it at night sleeping....
