Matt the Cat Trains Bubba the Puppy

Matt the Cat surveys his domain, but sees something that does not please him.

In response to Matt's warning, Bubba puts his face down in the "You're the Alpha" attitude.

Finally, Bubba gives up and starts to leave the deck.  As apparent by the size of his fluffed up tail...  at least twice its usual size, Matt is not backing down.

At the last minute, Bubba decides to try once again.  Instead of leaving, he stops at the steps and looks back at Matt with a pleading look.

Not impressed, Matt goes back to his nap.
