This will be our first Christmas with our 3 year old Aussie Shepherd rescue and I am having to make modifications. We have the tree in the middle of our picture windows, and usually presents go on either side and the front of the tree. Well, one of those windows is Finleys' bark spot. I know if I put presents there, he will just walk/jump all over them. So now I have to fit all the presents in the front and one side of the tree and don't know how this will work out. Guess it's a good thing we decided to downsize our Christmas giving this year.

I'm betting this is one year I have to redo at least several packages. I will just have to be careful with where the presents go - breakables directly under the tree and out of his path and pray for some luck.
