Dog, as in Calvin, to get / sleep on the sofa?

[AZPops]

Didn't want to Thread Jack, Ed and Lynne's "Dog's on furniture" thread, so I figure I'd start a new one / ask my question here.

It's been how many years now? ... That's right, next month will mark our 6th year anniversary. ... AND, I still can't get Calvin to get on / sleep / make his bed on the dang sofa!

I mean, common, I know there's gotta be quite a few dogs, and cats fur that matter, who would absolutely LOVE to have a supple and soft sofa to sleep, and or to chill on. Right?

BUT, OH NO, not my boy Calvin. Even if I place a nice soft blanket, and pillow on it, ... he still won't use the dang sofa as his bed / chill'in out spot in the Eagle. He's not happy unless he's sleeping where I walk. I think he likes being in my dang way.


So, my question is. How do you get your dog to sleep on the sofa?


Maybe I'm using the wrong bait? ... You think? ... Seriously though, I really would like Calvin to use the sofa, and to give me my walk space back.

PS No problems sleeping on the bed, or the floor!

I guess it's because he's a bigger PITA then me! ... Or is it the other way round? Anywho's, I think you know what I mean! .... :B

X 2 Calvin you have my vote for President. Just don't let Pops be your running mate. :B

I'm sure Pops would be an acceptable driver, though...

Pops could be an acceptable driver providing Calvin can get him cheap enough.

.... Now I know why, I woke up hearing Calvin practicing his, "Royal Canin for Everybody" speech!



Note to self, ... nevur ask you'all for advise, when it comes to THE DANG KID! ... :S .... :B
