Does Zita get the clumsy prize?

(1/3) > >>

This month Zita has run into headfirst into a fence, fallen off her bed and broken an aquarium and yesterday she got stuck under her bed which is a twin-sized one for humans.

She hit the cedar board fence while chasing the shadow of a hummingbird.  When she ran and jumped on the bed, the mattress slid off causing her to fall and bounce off the front of the aquarium stand.  The stand needs all the front support pieces and the three doors reattached.  We are working on the concept of no running in the house.

Getting stuck under her bed happened when she was playing with a ball and it rolled under the bed and she went after it laying on her side.  She couldn't get it into her mouth and it kept rolling further under the bed, so she kept wiggling after it until all that was left out were her back feet.

For some reason, at that point she became unhappy.  When she realized that she couldn't get out, she was unhappy and loud.  I went around and stuffed the ball in her mouth to keep her happy while thinking about how to get her out.  The bed weighs over 100 lbs, and it is on a new floor, so moving the bed was not an option.  Dragging her out would have hurt both of us.

Getting her out took three liver treats put where she could see them, but couldn't get to while under the bed,  Then I hung onto the bed frame, braced my feet against her back paws and said, "Treats, Zita."  She was a bit hesitant with her inchworm impersonation until I started calling the other dogs for treats.  The other dogs were all shut away, but she didn't know that.

Does she get the prize?

Pyr Heaven:
Awwwwww! Hahahaha. Poor Zita! She DEFINITELY gets the prize. I can just see it now. Her stuck under the bed, not being able to move but is FINALLY able to wiggle herself out so her siblings can't get the treats!!! HAHAHA And what a lucky girl she is to have a human twin sized bed ;D


Hopefully she'll learn from her mistakes! ;) :D :-*

Bodhi has a twin sized bed of his own, too!  It's here in my office.  The mattress and box springs are on the floor so it's pretty low, and it is right behind my desk chair....so every morning while I am on the computer, Bodhi lays there and demands cookies, lol.  I started the game when he was little...I would bring one of those 100 Calorie Packs of animal crackers into the office....I hold one up and say "Give us a cookie!" in a silly voice, and he 'replies'....makes this mumbling, growly sound like he is trying to say "Yes, give us that cookie!". 

I laughed like crazy about Zita getting stuck....I can just see it...hahahaha. ...

zchic:
That is too funny I can just see her stuck under that bed. LOL the things they get thenselves into.

People Whisperer:
LMAO!!! I can totally relate to Zita. Today I am just as clumsy as she is. First, the dog house hit me on the head, then the stairs tried to throw me off and finally the rug, which I was shaking smacked my lip. I better of stay on the couch all day  :D
