A few mornings ago, I realized that for several minutes Truman hadn't been in the bathroom supervising me while I got ready for work (he shares this task with Riley, the cat). Checking the living room, I found him mutilating a ball point pen. I traded the remains of the pen for one of his toys and went back to getting ready for work. A couple minutes later he trotted by the bathroom door with his head turned away. He was in a hurry to get somewhere, anywhere, with his latest acquisition, a tube of chapstick. The mutilated chapstick joined the pen in the trash and I asked him to PLEASE be a good boy so I could finish getting ready to go. I made a quick lunch which included a nectarine. Truman bounced around following me - he wanted that nectarine! Maybe he thought it was a ball, who knows. I set my lunch by my purse and went to turn off the TV and finish up in the bathroom. Truman trots by again, all innocent looking except for the round red "ball" in his mouth. Yep - the nectarine stolen off the counter (I thought). I looked at the fairly intact nectarine and decided it was still edible and returned it to the spot on the counter only to find the original piece of fruit still there. Evidently, Truman decided that since I wouldn't give him the "ball" he would just go help himself to his own from the fruit bowl on the kitchen table! OK, that was the final straw - Mr. Naughty Boy (one of his many names) went into his crate and I flew out the door to work! I did give him his usual parting treat, even though he may not have deserved it that morning..... |

Oh boy could I relate!! Sorry to laugh at your misfortune but I almost had the same morning! Finally made an appt for Merlin at the groomers which meant I had to leave a lot earlier than usual to drop him off before continuing on to work.
Let him out for his business and was rushing to get ready. I hear him bark and realized I had closed the sliding door while he was still out. EWWWWW no! He's sat in the fishpond again!!!! Not only that but then stuck his big wet head in my planter on the porch..ewwwwww Mr. Mud Head! Worse just got my van insured last night..first time I was going to use it..ewww he's so yucky. I try to clean him off best I could ..kept phoning the groomer all day to find out how he's doing..umm we're still trying to dry him off they said, they hadn't even started the clipping. The 2:30 pick up time was extended to 4.
Sometimes we have to laugh at our boys antics and thankfully Truman didn't spill ink all over his coat or your carpets!! Thankfully he didn't eat a peach or chew on the pit as I've heard these are poisonous and thankfully chapstick is not harmful that I know of. Yup see!!! We should both be thankful!! Ha Ha!  |
