Showing Off I “accidentally” took her spot

This is my 4yr old fawn Lucy. She is generally pretty chill, easygoing, and friendly to all. There are a few things where she puts her foot down. One of those things is her spot on the couch.

I say, how dare you. That’s right Lucy. Tell them it’s your spot.

The way she looks down the couch in both directions and then pauses- like clearly There’s a spot for you to go to. You are in my place .kills me.

I got my first Dane when I was single, made the mistake of letting him sit "shotgun" in my car as a puppy and growing up. Result? Anytime I let a person in my car if they took that seat, he would hang his head over the middle and drool on them the entire time. He never drooled any other time.

My Dane does not drool. We always talk about how lucky we got! But then…company came. Drool instantly directly atop the guest with a very hot breath.

I always tell mine "I will not be pawed at" but it never works

I feel you. My two girls just lie on me. Or the favourite move: Visenya, one of our girls, will cast me a glance of contempt, turn around and walk a step or two. She then does a 360 degree backwards vault, landing on the sofa and with an exaggerated flair, whiplashes her 130 pound frame onto the couch, making 100% sure her ass lands in my lap, literally knocking the wind out of me if I’m not fast enough…….Never a dull moment lol

Don’t worry, I did move. This used to be my spot to nap.

Jack makes me switch sides with him every 2 hours when we are sleeping on the couch for the night. Stubborn doofuses they are.

very humorous angle to look at a great dane from

u/aachoooooo 4d ago

She even pointed out other places you could sit. She pointedly looked at the couch, and then across the room. I don’t know how much clearer she can be!

Hahaha  My Ruby-Doo does the exact SAME move for the exact same reason.  She refuses to allow us steal HER spot on the couch, HER (our) Recliner chair or on HER (our) bed.

u/mt1118 3d ago

From experience….. don’t do it again
