The dog’s agenda is simple, fathomable, overt: I want. “I want to go
out, come in, eat something, lie here, play with that, kiss you. There
are no ulterior motives with a dog, no mind games, no second-guessing,
no complicated negotiations or bargains, and no guilt trips or grudges
if a request is denied.

Boca's wants are clear and true. She wants what you're having. She wants to lay in the nearest sunbeam, or on either monogrammed dog bed (she can't read, so Ruby's is fair game, too). She wants to sleep in, but only after breakfast is served. Most of all, she doesn't want to have to choose - she wants to have her bone and chew it too.
