If it weren't against the law I'd beat my chi's. They've been such a pain all week. It's like they know I'm busy and just want to add to it as some sort of revenge.
If you are feeling stressed, it's very likely they are picking up on that and they are getting stressed right along with you.

Stressed doggies are naughty doggies....lol I know mine know when I'm upset (VERY in tune with my mood at all times) and they don't like it one bit. We've had a few doggie brawls and every time it's been when tensions were high (teenagers *sigh* cause all kinds of grrrrrr moments).
Sure hope everything settles for you soon {{{huggs}}}
