Sam - a very clever dog!

Introducing Sam Parker from Nottingham -

"Sam is a very clever 3 year old pooch, we do not allow him upstairs and we have a baby gate at the bottom of the stairs to keep him on the ground floor level.  Thus he has not been trained to climb stairs or come back down them.  Suddenly last week whilst my husband and I were on our computers upstairs we heard this banging noise and thump thump thump, we both looked out of our office doors at the same time and who should be on the landing....yes....Sam, his tail wagging and a smile on his face like ' I am a clever dog'. He went into all the bedrooms and jumped on the beds, he was so excited about being up stairs...where he should not be.  He soon got bored and sat at the top of the stairs wanting to go down. So my husband had to carry him down.  We locked the gate.   Then two days later I was upstairs on the computer and who should appear in my room but Sam.    We now have to lock the gate whenever we go upstairs, and this morning at breakfast he was trying to unlock the gate to get to us, I am sure he will sus the lock out as he is a very clever boy."

Sam and his family live in Nottingham.  This story was sent in by Sam's human Eunice as part of the Scruff MacDuff compeitition.  Thank you Eunice for your story!
