Taunting Barney

Ben has recently discovered Barney's "treat drawer" in our kitchen and has also noticed that when he takes one of Barney's toys, the dog will play with him. So, of course he has run with these two new ideas and has been taunting Barney to no end.



Here's Benjamin playing in Barney's drawer, a cruel trick to someone yellow and furry who views going near this cookie jar as very serious business!




Ben is picking up a handful of Barney's biscuits, waving them around and then throwing them back into the cookie jar...while Barney watches hopefully from the sidelines.


Barney inches in for a better view in hopes of getting a treat but Ben prefers to taunt Barney instead of feeding him. Don't feel too bad for Barney, though, he is getting many more treats and food droppings than he used to before Ben was around!







Benjamin's next game entails filling his shopping cart with all of Barney's toys and then walking around the house with them while Barney follows behind, trying to retrieve his toys. Poor dog!
