Just wanting to cuddle?

Tonight Gretta weaseled her way into my lap again. Usually she will lay with Lee in his recliner. Tonight he told her no. I was in my usual seat on the love seat and Gretta jumped up in the seat next to me. Find a place to lay down and settle for the night baby girl. Now what you have to know about Gretta is that she is a very "touchy feely" kind of dog. She needs to be close to you. She slowly leaned across the arm rest. Little more, little more. First her paw on my arm. "Back off Gretta." Next thing I know she is weaseling her way onto my lap and onto my blanket. Do you think she wants my attention?

What you also have to know is that we have a blanket in our house that three, yes three people have claimed to be theirs. First of all I bought it because it was lightweight and soft and warm. I purchased it just after Ellie was born. I use to wrap her up in it when she was a baby and she would settle right down and go to sleep. Gretta came along six months later and since Ellie and I were usually curled up in the blanket at night, Gretta thought she should be too. Wham three owners. Even today when Ellie is here, her and Gretta fight, yes actually FIGHT over the blanket. If Gretta is buried in it and sound asleep, you can bet that Ellie will grab it and pull as fast as she can sending Gretta flying. "It's my blanket Gretta!" When Ellie goes home, Gretta is right back in it. "It's my blanket Ellie!" and finally when Gretta is in her bed or laying with Lee in his recliner, I will curly up in MY blanket Ellie and Gretta! But as long as I have to share it, Ellie and Gretta are the two that I would not mind sharing it with. Back off Merlin...MY BLANKIE!
