Bailey likes to stick his nose in everyone's business. He has to be right in the middle of things, checking it all out. He's also a kleptomaniac. Heaven forbid you leave your hand bag on the floor - as a recent guest found out. Bailey stuck his nose right into it and, after careful selection, decided on a tasty snack of cookies in a plastic bag and a toothbrush. Big Score!!! (and 7 out of 10 dentists recommend brushing after snacks!) We remind guests (and ourselves) to NEVER leave leather shoes lying around - Bailey is a leather connoisseur. He especially enjoys the more expensive ones - as he has demonstrated many times when he passes by the Target brand shoes in my closet and goes directly for my brand new designer boots or the handles of my nicest hand bags. He has discriminating taste. He also enjoys wallets and scores a bonus if it has tasty paper money. The bank said that I had to "gather" the pieces with the serial numbers if I wanted to have it replaced. Maybe not for a $1 but hey, it was a $20, so I did. It was also embarrassing one day when a contractor came over and removed his boots at the door. Five minutes later, we discovered that the back of his boots had made for a tasty mid-day snack. That was an expensive visit. Oh yeah, he also ate a friend's leather shoes when she came over for dinner. I guess we should have told her that it would be Bailey having dinner.
He loves to oversee projects. Recently, when we were having new granite counter tops installed, we also needed to replace the kitchen faucet. So under the sink we went and, of course, "we" included Bailey. He's become quite the supervisor. Annoying. . . but cute.
