This morning we had the usual excitement as Gussie and Roderick play the don't let the lurcher out as you go to work game.
Gussie made a swift exit when Jake was distracted by his ball. Roderick faced the larger challenge.
Once alerted to departing humans Jake is very careful to lie gracefully across all points of house exit to ensure there is no further escapees. Bribery was required - the application of a favoured dentastick was made, sniffing ensued and finally Jake accepted it as a reasonable bribe for exit. The dentastick was removed to the new fancy travelling bed, bought for Jake's forthcoming adventures at Christmas, and Roderick was allowed to exit for work.
To ensure Roderick understood how abandoned Jake felt, Jake decided it was necessary to whine and scrape the door as Roderick donned a coat and fled the house.
