Pooches: How the Pups Trick us into Not Doing Chores

The other day we had to have a talk with the pooches. We told them since we moved into a house there was a lot more work to do. 

And they needed to help out.

They were not impressed with our request. They told us since they moved into a house there was a lot more 'laying around' they needed to do.

We decided to start by having the pups help us rake the leaves.
I would rake.
And they would stand around and keep me company.
At first Miss M was upset. And she had to complain.

But then clever Miss M had a plan.
Much like Tom Sawyer, Miss M decided to trick me by being a bad worker.
She knew if she tried to eat the leaves:

And dance in the leaf piles
We wouldn't ask her to work any more. So she got to go back inside.

So we asked Mr B to come out and work.
But poor Mr. B proved to be too delicate.
He had a fear of being touched by leaves:

All of the leaves:

And he pleaded with us to let him go inside:

So we let them go inside. Miss M who was not a good worker. And Mr. B who was afraid of leaves.
And the pups got their chance to 'lay around' more often.

Anyone else have tricky pups that get out of work?
