Expanding Cody's Comfort Zone

Well, there's no turning back now. After our 6 mile run/jog/hike today, I gave Cody a much deserved bath (he hadn't had a bath in 2 weeks since he wasn't allowed to bathe for a few days after his surgery). As I am still recovering from my cold, I decided to join him in a nap. This is where guilt and a soft heart joined to lead me to allow Cody on my bed...the bed with white sheets.

After the first few minutes while he was tossing the sheets, he settled down at the foot of the bed and we both enjoined a very relaxing and deep nap.

Of course, now that he's ventured outside to go potty, he's going back to his crate until my soft heart wins out again the next time he has a bath.
