It is not yet 12 hours since the last post, but there MOM is, perched at the bottom rung again.

A huge mea culpa this evening - I got home late after a meeting and realized the cover had been in place over the dog door all day. I can't remember when I put it there - and there were puddles and a pile in the house. Poor pups! I apologized profusely, especially after finding the poop first, and Cinnamon groveled, fessing up to the deed. And then I noticed the blocked door! My poor puppies.
