My dog loves to spend the day out in the garage, especially if there is a work table or a bench he can be on top of....He's a cocker spaniel so he's short. I guess being on a table in his mind puts him at a better height so he can look out the window and see around the shop better in order to supervise the activity better!!!!! Most days would be kind of boring without having him out there to keep me company.... Heck, he doesn't even argue much!!!
