"Bad puppy...we LOVE you!"

Boomer's Mom · 03-17-2011, 03:38 PM

Anyone remember the Nick show, "Angry Beavers"? One of the episodes they were adopted as dogs, and the people that had them would say, "Bad puppy, we love you!"

Well, today that is applying for Boomer. If it can be chewed/barked at/etc., he is doing it. The final straw was when he bit the TV power cord partially through. I heard him barking his head off and jumping back, and the TV went off. I went over, and after a few seconds realized he had severed part of the cord.

He sat on the couch while I scolded him, and I couldn't help but take a picture of his "hang-dog" expression. Then took a 2nd picture and I swear he was laughing at me.

Went off to the store to buy a new plug (No, you MAY NOT go with momma!), and the TV is back on. And he is back to being his ornery self.

We've had some days like that. I swear they know that what they're doing is bad. If Virga is chewing on something we don't want her to and we catch her, she'll stop chewing and roll over onto her back. We'll fuss at her for about 2 seconds and then give her her Nylabone and love on her. You can't stay mad at them! It's near impossible.

Geez, and here I thought I was the only one. Woody has been having several days like that....he has been potty trained for over a month and as soon as I buy a new carpet cleaner and clean the carpets he has been leaving me new puddles to clean almost with a "your welcome" look on his face as I bring back out the cleaner.... He is so darn cute it's hard to even be upset.

Now if that had been one of the kids.....

Mine too have their moments of "Bad dog, we love you." Most recently Rosco (who's 2 and should know better) got a hold of a tube of cat hair ball remedy. He chewed the cap off and the bottle open, then proceeded to consume the ENTIRE bottle. (It was brand new). We waited anxiously, thinking that it was going to cause him to have a lot of diarrhea. Fortunately, he tolerated it very well and seemed to have no issues. Now if only I could get the cats to eat it as easily!

Breezy has decided that she will chew on anything plastic. I caught her chomping an ink pen the other day. Today she got a hold of an empty pill bottle. They are so much like little kids! You have to wonder when it gets quiet, what they're into!

Don't forget about Layla's sudden decision to incorporate rocks into her diet.

We had a moment like this the other morning when we came out to find our Play Station controller on the floor and the cord ripped to shreds. Which was upsetting more because we thought we had put it in a secure location that she couldn't reach. Well apparently she did anyways!
