I can't believe it but Danny actually did something good this time.
He's paper trained, and we usually leave a thick wad of newspaper on the floor for him. When we're feeling industrious, we would remove the dirty sheets, leaving the clean ones below. On more lazy days and if it's just pee, we would simply flip the sheets over.
Danny's been observing us clean up his mess all this while. Today, I was petting him when he suddenly got up and headed for the paper. I praised him while he peed to reinforce the act.
After he was done, I thought he would come back to me but he didn't. Instead he sniffed around the area and started nosing. I thought he was doing something grouse so I told him to come but I got ignored.
Then to my surprise, he pushed up a corner of the newspaper and using his nose, he rolled it over his pee. He did it again until it was completely covered. Only then did he come to me.
I've never seen him do that before and I don't know if he actually meant to cover up his stuff, but for now the whole family's in shock.
Except for Rhoda. She thinks he's showing off.

That's cute.
Russ simply refuse to re-used soiled papers. He would rather wait till we clean it up and put down fresh papers for him...
cute! Danny would try to find a clean corner, failing which it would appear outside the paper. It's like "Hey, I tried."
forgot to mention that it frustrates my mom no end cos she would grumble that she just cleared the soiled papers and clean up his 'toilet' just a min ago once her back is turned, it is soiled again...haha
Yeah, they make life interesting. :D
Not surprising! My friend's schnauzer does that herself all the time! If there are spare papers at the corner within her reach, she would even spread the new papers herself!
Really? Wow! That's really smart! Still observing Danny. I hope he does that too some day!
Maybe it's a schnauzer thing! I wished Vela can do that too. Too bad, she only knows how to tear things up. =_=
