Dog With The Finest Taste

Somehow pets are all attracted to the best thing in the house. Today I found Shay, who has her run of the house, drooped across the bunny pillow I so loving needlepointed. It is in no way the most comfortable pillow in the house, for that she has her chose of many down pillows. It was not in the sunniest spot, for that she could go to the sunroom and perch atop a soft sofa dappled in the warm glow of the spring light. It is not the coziest seat, unlike my low number side of the sleep number bed. It is not the best place to watch the wild life outside, for that she could sit in the chair in the living room with her head perched on the big arm that has a great view of the front yard. No, Shay has to sleep on top of bunny face pillow, covering his eyes so she can prove she is the queen animal in the house.
This is somehow similar to whenever I am dressed up in my finest outfit just about to go out and she comes in the house with dirty wet paws and decides she need to jump up on my legs. Normally Shay is happy to just walk inside and wait on her bed in the kitchen for a freeze dried liver treat, except if I have silk on. What is it about the finer things that attracts her so?
It is not just me she does this too. If a guest enters the house and has jeans on Shay tends to just saddle up to them and encourage some petting without jumping. The second a well dressed, and often animal indifferent person comes in, Shay feels the need to jump, paws first, up on their clothes. Yes, this is a training issue on the part of her owner’s, but how is it that she is so selective? Do you think there is such a thing as a blue blood dog?
