Madest your dog has made you?

Cash made me extremely angry today. I let him out while I fed my sons dinner before taking them to martial arts class. I left the windows down in my car since it is so hot. I went outside and found both sides of my car scratched from top to bottom. Apparently he decided he wanted to get into the car. There are at least 50 scratches on each side. I called my auto body guy. He said I'm probably looking at about $900 to paint it. I love Cash, but I've never been so tempted to do him physical harm. I didn't, but I would be lying if I told you the thought didn't cross my mind.

Will Munny, my 18 week old GSP has been doing very good with doing his bidness outside. I let him in the house today, he jumped right up in my leather easy chair and laid down. I called him to go back outside. He comes to the door, turns around and sprints back in the living room, and does #1 right in the middle of my chair. I'm holler'n no at him. He gives me this "you are #1 look, dad" finishes and runs right between my feet right out the back door, and lays down right beside my 18 month old GSP female. I swear he had this WTF grin on his face. I was so mad I couldn't form a sentence! I'm laughing about it now, but man I tell ya I was some kind of hot

right then. I think my brother may have taught him that one!!

I had my brother in laws dog, found out (new to both me and him) she will jump into the truck through the drivers window if you tell her to. I was sitting in it and called her...she just jumped right through. That'll keep the scratches off!

Either when Summit chewed a hole in my laundry room wall or when she decided my expensive mountain biking sunglasses and replaceable lenses were a better chew toy than the half dozen toys laying next to her.

I left two nice rib eyes next to my grill just long enough to run inside and get pepper. I came back out to find Josh sitting next to the empty platter with a big smile on his face.

I was at my parent's house this summer and my mom had made dinner for my dad's birthday. It was late in the afternoon and time for me to head back to school so I fed Maggie and my Mom and I went upstairs to round up my stuff. We came back downstairs and Maggie was standing in the kitchen licking her chops and breathing really heavily. Turns out she finished her dog food, then got up on the counter and ate a dish of macaroni and cheese and most of a plate of sliced ham. There went my home cooked meal to leftovers! I was so mad I just had to laugh.

Picture this. My daughter decided to bring home some hamsters and gerbils from school for the summer to attend to then during the break. I had to take a trip to El Paso so I brought the family with me. My wife's sister volunteered to watch after the dogs and the little rodents. I get a call while driving back from El Paso that we needed to get home soon. We were only about an hour away so I picked up the pace. To my surprise when I got home my little girl had busted the rodents out and chased them down to play with them. Tearing up the house trying to get a hold of them. Once she got a hold of them she proceeded to play rough. Needless to say it was a mess to clean up. The hard part was explaining it to my daughter and to the school. The upside is I have never been stuck with animals from the school.

Not funny at the time I'm sure but I had to laugh at that story.

This is one for my husband and my dog. A week or so after we got Jake I was out running errands and my husband was at home with the dogs. My husband is playing video games and supposedly Jake is in his bed chewing his Nylabone. Well he was actually chewing the base board while my husband is three feet away and he didn't even notice.

ohiogsp · Post by **ohiogsp** » Fri Aug 24, 2007 3:12 pm

I didn't get mad but one time I left my dog B.A. (avatar dog) tied to the front of my truck on a checkcord when I was running anouther dog and. When I came back I didn't see him that was because he had jumped in the passenge side window of the truck. This is a big chevy with a lift and 35" tires. He did not make it all the way in and I knew this from the hugh scratches down the door from when he was kicking with his back legs to get in. I then seen he had been jumping all around in the truck and my rear view mirror was no longer attached to the windshield. Oh, he is such a jumper. This window is almost neck high on me. He accually jumped on the kitchen table one time to greet my wife when she was coming in the door and he slid across and took everything that was on it with him.

We had been married about a year and my wife bought me a gsp pup for my birthday. I came home from work wearing a one day old pair of Redwing steel toed work boots and I went to sleep in a chair holding the probably 10 week old pup. I awoke to a tugging sensation on my left leg and looked down to see an actively engaged little dog and the entirely exposed steel toe of a new boot. There was absolutely no leather on the end of that boot. Had it not been for that steel toe, I could have been maimed for life.

I was going down the stairs and Cash thought he would make it a race. He bumped my leg and I fell all the way down the stairs. messed up my shoulder, wrist, hip, knee and neck, I did a flip about halfway down and I think thats where I passed him. Anyway I scared him so when I hit the bottom He looked at me like "jeez What did you do that for?" I gave him a body glove on his side and juped up to try to walk it all off. My wife said it sounded like a ton o $#!7 . She still laughs till she cries when she thinks about it. That was the most upset I have ever been. let alone at an animal

I didn't get mad, but Otis did it to me. durning the summer several years ago and I still had three dogs. Two shorthairs and Otis. No air conditioning so I just left the door and all the windows open when I went to bed. Otis went out probably around midnight then came back in and jumped right in the middle of bed with me and the other two. Befor doing that he found the runniest, ripest, stinkingest, largest pile of cow crap within 10 miles and rolled in it! What a way to wake up.

After a day of good exercise, I was working on my truck and Beau was laying in the bed of the truck looking around. He decided to get out of the bed and relieve himself and then a lady walking her poodle starting coming down the street. I gave out one of those anxious "HERES" to get him back before he shot off. Well he seen it and looked at me and then took off. So I gave a serious "HERE "bleep"!!!" and he came running back and didn't even used the tailgate he just went right up the side of the truck into the bed. Almost cleared it but there were a few good scratches. I buffed what I could out but its not close to the same. Pissed me off for a second but then I was amazed that this 26"tall 70lb pointer just jumped 5 ft off the ground.

i was out of town working and my girlfriend let kimber out of the kennel, and proceeded to fall asleep on the couch while kimber was loose. needless to say, my brand new boots got torn to shreds, aparently we share the same taste.

TheShadow · Post by **TheShadow** » Sat Aug 25, 2007 9:04 pm

my pup got to my beloved iPod and destroyed it. needless to say i was rippin' mad but when i saw her face i just had to blame myself (i left it on the table rather than high up). i got a new one the next day... i learned my lesson.

and yeah one time i let my pup loose in my then new FJ Cruiser, and well she chewed some parts up, ahhhhhhhhhhhh but again my fault.

Have y'all noticed how everyone realizes who is at fault in all these stories.

I think there are some good dog people on this board.

The shoe looks alright and your pants go over the uppers. As for the heel, real cowboys all wear their pants long enough to walk on them anyway. I don't see the problem!

Heck, those are Wolvrenes any way. Get yourself a good pair of Heyer's!

Don, I have worn the boots since they were "destroyed" and they still work, but i almost break my ankle every time i turn to right to fast. So im gonna take them to the boot shop and get em patched up just enough to support my ankles more.

midwestfisherman · Post by **midwestfisherman** » Sun Aug 26, 2007 12:23 pm

WHOA!! Those boots remind me of my lab. I had just gotten a new pair of custom made ostrich boots. Yep, you guessed it, she chewed them up while I was taking a nap.

I'll never forget that dog......LOL

When it is extremely hot or extremely cold I will leave my old dog Dexter (brittany) inside when I can not take him with me. Usually I put up a gate across the stairs, (after some hard lessons). If I leave him behind he gets PO ed. On ocassion I forget to put the gate up. Everytime without fail, up the stairs he goes he tears apart the comforter on the bed then goes back down stairs and is laying on the couch like it has been an uneventful day. That polly fill can cover a whole room. He never touches anything or anybody elses stuff. Five comforters later, My memory has gotten no better.

I was running a big male gsp one night down at the pond. My wife and I were standing and visiting on the concrete apron to a large shed when the male tried to run between my legs from behind me. I somersaulted backwards and landed on my shoulders and head.
I can't say that was the most upset I have been at a dog but it was the most injured. I would say the most upset I have been at a dog was any number of times they would antagonizingly disobeyed a command and I had no way to control them. Getting caught without a shock collar can create all kinds of emotion.

This was more embarrassing than anything......Went to run 2 young dogs at an SGL, was heading back to the parking lot, about 150 yds from it, and I see 2 guys with a lab & a springer in the parking area. I had seen them before here & know they sometimes put birds out, right about then, my young female goes on point but she's flagging??? (she never flags)
Thinking maybe they put some pheasant out & one was running(she hasn't seen pheasant yet) I start hurrying to her to try to stop her, grabbing my other dog & leashing it first. To late though!! She creeps & pounces.
Still thinking it's a bird & with her being a very good retriever, I tell her to fetch here, big mistake......she lifts her head & starts running to me full bore with a young skunk!!! OMG!! Now I'm yelling, stop, drop it, leave it, whoa, but she keeps coming.....I start running from her yelling the whole time & she has this confused look as she's proudly trying to give me her "prize", as she was commanded to.
Well, I got her to drop it (unharmed)finally after a 100 ft or better chase, no I didn't get skunked, but she sure did, even the little ones are quite potent. Needless to say the guys in the parking area got a REAL good laugh.........

A freind of mine insisted his dogs ride in the cab so after a hunt we stop in a little place for a bite to eat and where we parked you couldnt see his truck, after we eat I get outside and see something all over the 4 windows of the truck I ask him what is that he shakes his head I dunno

Well the dogs must have eaten something that didnt agree with them and had the hershey squirts in the front of his truck and the 2 of them proceeded to step in it and paw at all the windows, god was that truck an awful mess, from then on he used vari-kennels in the back

It wasn't me who got mad. It was my mother in law. She made two big plates of cookies for her Church Ladies Old Hen meeting. While she was upstairs, my Setter Annie got hungry and ate the WHOLE bunch except for two. HOLY CRAP!! That went over about as well as a beer fart in church. It took everything I had in me to not explode in laughter. I had to pretend that I was very disappointed with Annie. I'm laughing right now while I type. I hope that happens again.
