they cant tell me animals dont think.My Poo-Chie was only 9 weeks old when I saw her figure out how to get from the bed to me where i was sitting in my office chair doing some quilting. she first tried putting her front paws on the quilt frame but that left hind legs on bedside and left her hanging as she was too far away to risk jumping from bedside to quilt frame. she retreated and sat there for a few minutes looking around. then she ran to the end of bed where I had left a box of pretzels i had been nibbling . She used her nose to push the box into position at the side of the bed and started to push if off. Since the open box was coming first i was afraid she would dump pretzels all over,I reached out my hand to catch the box. the minute my hand was under the box to support it, she jumped on the box and scurried across to the quilting frame and of course to me. My son was lying on the bed and was amazed. "if I hadnt seen it with my own eyes, I'd have never believed it" was his reaction.
