Alec and Berkeley are typical Italian Greyhounds. Being the good Iggies that they are, these two have gone to great lengths in order to insure their humans, the Sivils family, have been well trained in the "rules." The "rules" are to be obeyed at all times and without question. The rules are:
1) If I want it, it is mine. This includes any item formerly owned by a human in the family.
2) Humans were designed to be used as couches with automated scratching devices attached.
3) The scratching devices are to be used at all times when I recline unless I decide otherwise.
4) Food is to be shared, sort of. Humans share with Iggies. Iggies are not allowed to share with humans.
5) It is always nap time.
6) Unless it is play time.
7) The Iggy always determines what time it is.
8) My comfort is your number one priority.
9) Cars are meant to take Iggies for rides, but never to the vet.
10) Furniture, in addition to being used for taking comfortable naps, is also meant to be used as an Iggy obstacle course.
11) Blankets are meant to sleep under, for Iggies that is. Humans are allowed by permission of the Iggy.
12) If the temperature is above 72 degrees it is too hot for an Iggy.
13) If the temperature is below 72 degrees it is too cold for an Iggy.
14) Only say the word "treat" if you mean it!
15) Iggies are happier when they have a human of their own for a companion.
