Sadie was a little annoyed with me over the weekend because I refused to share my pizza with her. I’m trying to teach her that she can’t have a piece of my dinner if she refuses to eat her own dinner first. So after lots of begging and sad puppy eyes failed her, Sadie decided to try a new approach. She thought she could just take some pizza for herself.

After watching the humans for a while, Sadie noticed that pizza comes from big square boxes. When I put one of the boxes on the floor by the door to remind whoever leaves next to take it to the garbage, Sadie thought she finally had her chance for some pizza. She ran to the box and after a good sniffing, confirmed that there should be pizza inside. After a bit of a struggle with the lid, Sadie finally managed to get the box open enough to reach her head inside, and found nothing. But Sadie refused to believe what her eyes were telling her, that the box was empty. She could still smell pizza. So Sadie decided to give the box a more thorough inspection by jumping inside. Her efforts were rewarded with a few crumbs and a piece of cheese that had stuck to the box. It wasn’t exactly the pizza she had been searching for, but that’s what you get when you refuse to eat the food that’s good for you first.
