Oh. My. Goodness.
This dog, the new dog, the sweet, innocent, cute, little puppy just broke out of his cage and chewed up my ENTIRE house while I was at church.
How?
I have no idea.
The crate was still locked and in tact when I got home, only it was flipped upside down. For the life of me, I can NOT figure out how she got out (just like I can't figure out how she got out of our back yard the other day and ran nearly a mile away, all within five minutes of being let out, either!).
She makes me so mad. She makes me not want a puppy, especially when destroying my house means taking every dirty yucky stinky diaper out of the garbage and smearing poop all over my carpet, my WHITE carpet. Ugh. Having a puppy is not much fun. It's rather stressful, actually! However, I'm determined to not let this puppy win. I WILL get through the puppy stage and she WILL be the best behaved dog around.
The first step in my game plan will be returning this crate for a full-fledged dog kennel, with sides (none of this crate stuff). I may even purchase a padlock. Maybe even two of them. I can not have a dog-chewed, poop-smeared house any longer.
Dear Kelsey,
We're on, girl friend.
Oh, and by the way, I WILL win. You might as well give up now.
Love,
your new mommy
I can feel your pain... COMPLETELY!
ReplyDeleteDans dog hs been breaking out of his crate too- I zip tied it all over to ensure it can no longer be escaped from. This is what he diod whenm he was out:
Pooped on my floor - TWICE
peed on my couch
ate cat poo from the litter box
Peed on my vaacuum cleaner
ate a whole box of cat food
shred a photo album
tore up important papers on desk
chewed up Koras toys
broke 2 baby gates (jumping them)
and dumped the whole doggie water jug out on my carpet- I was gone 1 hour!
He is a BAD BAD BAD dog! I put him in a kennel in our garage when we leave the house now- there isnt mush he can destroy in there!
You can do it!!!
ReplyDeleteWe can go back and get Odie. He needs a good home and he's so sweet!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are one brave woman to take on another dog (a puppy, at that!) while being pregnant and having 2 small ones!
