Step 1: Make laundry pile on the floor. Include rug from under food bowls, both dog bed covers, blankie, and a couple other rugs to fill the wash load.
Step 2: Watch dog attempt to pull blankie out of the pile.
Step 3: Tell dog "no" then pointlessly explain that she can have it back once it's clean.
Step 4: Gather other laundry loads to take down to the laundry room (I mean, there are 3 washers; I'm certainly going to be using them for my laundry, too...).
Step 5: Bring laundry to laundry room - wash as you would any laundry.
Step 6: Come back to your apartment only to see your dog curled up on her blankie.
Ugh! Sneaky little bitch (I can call her that. She's a female dog). And people wonder why it's always gross!
