Beasley only sits here when Daddy is gone. If he hears the garage door open, he quickly moves to an approved resting location. When I tell him to get down, he pretends that he is deaf.

OMG My dog does the same thing, and he is a puggle (Beagle-Pug mix)…I wonder if it’s a pug thing? lol
My basset does the same thing… he knows he’s not allowed on the sofa. If I’m upstairs and he is downstairs (sofa is located downstairs) and I walk down my stairs, what I hear is thump-click-click-click, aka the sound of a basset hound jumping off the sofa running across the room and pretending to be a good boy, asleep on his dog bed.
But if I go put my hand on my lovely, expensive, relatively new brown leather sofa, there is a warm, hairy indentation on it, the exact circumference of a curled-up, sleeping basset hound.
this made my day ๐ thank you for the great posts! I have 3 weiner dogs that don’t listen. They don’t act blind, deaf or anything…they just don’t listen. lol
My lab wasn’t allowed in the couch but would be on it when you passed by to go into another room and appeared to be sound asleep next to the couch 10 seconds later when you walked by again.

My Shih Tzu, Boots, loves to sit on the top of the couch also. I’ve stopped telling him to get down, he just ignores me. lol

What a character! My dog listens better to his human Dad too.

Selective deafness is obviously not limited to males from the human species!

Mommy needs to start pressing the garage door button to fake you out!

Sadly, that trick doesn’t work with our dog. If she doesn’t hear the car coming, she ignores the door.

My Lab owns the couch now. It’s a nasty broken down mess. No one wants to sit on it but the dog. We cannot have nice things :o(
