Another view. Note how she must be stepped over to access the breakfast room (where we always eat) while she takes up a good amount of space near the stove top (center top of photo), dishwasher (right), and counter near sink (see blue cutting board with tomatoes just to left of non-pictured sink).
Here she lifts up her head as I step over her on my way back from the breakfast table.
Now dinner is served and she's shifted positions. She's ever hopeful, but Daddy is not going to put spaghetti in her bowl. In fact, he doesn't even notice her because he's busy watching his Cowboys play football.
Now the humans have finished dinner. Maybe if Lucy lays her head in her mom's lap, she'll get to lick the bowl? Nope. But while we are thinking about it, let's take off your old rabies tag and put your new one on the collar.
Banning the dog from the kitchen while cooking and eating is probably a lot safer for all involved, but then cooking and dinner time wouldn't be as colorful and fun.---------------------------------------------
I received a wonderful box of dog and human gifts from Beth in the Dogs on Thursday swap! I will post photos next Thursday.

Our two are small so they don't take up much kitchen space, but they sure can make themselves HUGE when they want to claim a people bed.
Roscoe had to be put on a special food this week so the treat jar you sent us has been put to good use to hold the food. Thanks again for a great swap package. There's a photo of the jar with the food in it on my blog today.
My Lola is ALWAYS under foot and getting stepped on from time to time...
That is Elise too! Always waiting for the food to drop by accident!
Those were my rules! My neighbor has a Lucy who looks just like yours. I think she's making Lucy and her brother Nick feel good by having "Beware of Dog" signs in the yard. Does she think they'll kiss strangers to death? I do!
P.S. That is so awesome you got your box! I am glad this swap worked out weel and everyone got their boxes!
I love that last picture! Awh mom I just want a little bite. I loved reading your post. There is no way Charli will leave the kitchen when I'm cooking. She sits right under my cutting board just in case a little something is dropped. LOL
Yep gotta agree with that kitchen's are too small for the dogs to be part of the cooking process! I have less space and have it blocked off so no one comes in but they are right on the other side waiting and I can hardly get through! Lucy looks like she is so lovable that she just wants to help and be loved! Look at that Lap face pleading for spaghetti! Photo story was great! Thanks for sharing!Have a great weekend!
LOL I know just what you mean! My dog is always doing the same thing too in my kitchen. Although she's small, but my kitchen space is smaller!
Poor Lucy! What an adorable face!!
Wilbur & Char send their sympathies cause dad won't share food either. They like to lay in the middle of the floor too. When I tried to ban them Wilbur just sat on the other side of the bar stools and whined which I found more annoying than having to step over him.
Lucy is sooo cute!!! I have three dogs myself :-)
Dogs just seem to have a sixth sense about how to plop themselves down in the most heavily trafficked areas of the floor. In my apartment, my old man Elvis is the primary offender. :)
