Sadie’s DIY Office Bed

Working at our office can get pretty boring for Sadie, even with all the toys she’s got all over the place. So some days I try to make things more interesting for her. I had just finished using the last ream of paper from the box and was setting up the empty container for recycling when Sadie came to investigate what I was doing. She started sniffing around, and then stepped into the overturned box lid and sat down. That’s when Sadie’s Grandfather and I realized that the box lid was exactly the right size for Sadie to lie down. We brought over some stuffed toys for pillows and a nice blanket. As soon as I placed the blanket over Sadie, she laid down and got comfy. Within minutes she was fast asleep. Of course Sadie has multiple fluffy dog beds around the office, but we correctly predicted that a box lid would be a far more exciting place for a nap that day.

Squeaky Binge

I’ve been involved in a huge project at work lately, which means Sadie has been stuck with me in the office for a lot more hours than she’s used to. Of course I have all kinds of toys and beds and food and everything else she should need to be happy and comfortable, but Sadie realizes that she must behave differently in the office and usually stays very quiet and subdued. But lately when we get home it’s like she’s a totally different dog. She goes nuts, running and squeaking her ball and playing. On normal nights Sadie does everything in moderation, playing a little, sleeping a little, eating a little. But on these late work nights, Sadie full out binges on squeaky fun.

The first thing she does when she walks in the door is look for her current favorite squeaky ball. For the rest of the night that ball doesn’t leave her mouth unless she’s eating or drinking. Most of the time she even takes it with her to pee! And since she slept most of the day and evening at the office, Sadie has plenty of energy to squeak long into the night. I usually let her have her fun as long as possible, since I feel guilty that she was stuck in the office for so long. I’ve even gone to sleep with her still squeaking next to me on the bed! It’s adorable to see how much Sadie enjoys returning from work to her toys at home, but I was very glad when the weekend came and she didn’t feel the need to squeak every minute of the day.
