How has your dog embarrassed you

I was just thinking about embarrassing moments with my dogs. I've had more than a few, especially with Lyric, my Doberman who lunged at other dogs and just looked plain scary until we worked through some of that. But this one I just remembered, actually with fondness now:

Once upon a time, Bonnie, my lovely, lady-like, chocolate Lab disappeared from my wilderness retreat up in the mountains. (being the irresponsible owner that I was with a bitch who had the wanderlust) Actually, I normally kept pretty good tabs on her, but one time she really vanished.

There's an elementary school with 50 students about 1/2 mile down the dirt road I live on. They were having a soft ball game and my little neighbor kids told me where she was when I saw them walking home. They told me, "Yeah, Bonnie was at the soft ball game and she was running all over the field catching the balls." When I looked horrified, they laughed and said that everyone was laughing and enjoying her. She was a real people person, especially a kid person.

So, I walked a little further and there she was, full body swing, on her way home. I was embarrassed and glad I wasn't there. I would have pretended I didn't know her. (of course, in this tiny community, there's not much chance that everyone already knew who she belonged to. Thankfully, it's a very dog friendly place. Everyone loves dogs)

Ummmm... How do I put this appropriately. Back when I had a bf in the spring he would stay over a lot. My friend was over one day, and Kody had gone into the bathroom and pulled a certain... method of protection out of the garbage and dropped it at her feet.


Is that appropriate to put here? lol.

Kharma has road rage.

If we're at a red light and the car in front of us doesn't move fast enough when the light changes, she throws a fit.

If a car cuts us off, she throws a fit.

Pretty much any road behavior she's ever seen me get pissed off over, she throws a fit.

And she's still looking for that beeyatch in the white four door Japanese sedan who cut us off twice . . . It's kinda funny -- and scary -- to watch her give the Fila Eye to every white Japanese sedan that we encounter. If there's a man driving, she ignores it, if it's a woman, she looks closer, and if it's a middle aged or older looking woman . . . she throws a fit.

Hahahahaha Renee...too funny!

OMG 4dogs! I think I would die...simply die. Hahahahaha!



Well, darn, It's going to be till much later till I can get back to these. I'm at the library using a computer because I'm not at home right now...might go to my daugher's tonight.

Yah, I have to admit it is pretty funny. Buckshot's heard her going off several times, lol.

At the dog park, Morgan immediately looks for the tallest MALE dog there and tries to hump him.

We've been able to redirect this for the most part, but every once in a while he just gets the idea back into his thick head.

In an attempt to get the Directv guy to play my golden KC shoved a bra in his hands...he was like uh, I think this belongs to you...O.M.G. was I embarassed...lol

Romeo likes to greet people at the door, and he gets so excited that sometimes..well.. red rocket lol its so gross!!

he likes to play with thongs (as in underwear) by bringing them out and flinging them all around the room. and of course, he does this in front of company.

Oh and we had one "oops!" in a nordstrom store... they have these tiny fake christmas trees set up and romeo was walking behind me and thought "oh look a tree.. im gonna pee on it!" I was like omg no! and he stopped.. but still lol the makeup counter ladies were cracking up

Oh geez...I think the most embarrassing was when Oakley launched himself off a snow bank, over what appeared to be a 1 ft fence (thats all that was poking up from the pile of crap in front of it...

And landed 6-7 feet down in someone's yard.

It was really fun knocking on their door & trying to explain how my dog ended up in their very well fenced in yard...

Let's see here........

One time a few years ago, we had Orson in our local pet supply. Kevin had him on lead and Kevin always lets him have too much leeway IMO. Anyway, Orson has a thing for the ladies.....he loves them best, LOL, and he walked right up behind this cute blond lady and shoved his nose right in her bum, it wasn't a gentle nudge, it was a full on GOOSE! She turned around with a VERY angry look, I think she was going to smack Kevin! ROFL! Lucky she spied the culprit in time, she laughed and gave him scritches..........but I tell you, Kevin turned pink and I was mortified!

Same pet supply a year later. I had Orson on lead this time. We walked into the food isle and another dog had had an accident and the owner obviously left it behind. Orson sniffed in that direction, promptly squatted and dropped a big ole' log before I could stop him! At the same time, the owner comes walking around the corner.........*turns beet red*.........she laughed it off and brought me supplies to clean it, and I know she probably thought the other accident was ours too since she caught us 'red handed' with the one. *shakes head*

It's been awhile since Orson has been to the pet supply, do you wonder WHY?

I yelled, "NO KODY!" and grabbed it but she saw as I was grabbing it. She was laughing forEVER about it lol.

I literally have to keep my bathroom door closed because Kody will find THE most embarassing item in the garbage and parade it around the house.

when Dodge was still alive, I was doing home checks for gsd rescue,,well he would be the dog I took with me

Once I went to interview a couple, nice people, and after we talked, I asked if they'd like to come out and meet Dodge,,now Dodge could have cared less about anyone, he was the definition of "aloof", but he was also very very go with the flow..

Well we are standing there, they are fawning over how beautiful he was, petting him,,Dodge was standing between me and the husband, I could tell the husband was a tad leery, (more so than the wife),,before I knew it, Dodge had hiked his leg and was getting ready to pee on him!!! I jerked him back, and was totally mortified LOL...He had never ever done anything like that before,,the wife was dying laughing,,the husband was standing there with his mouth open.

I couldn't apologize enough I was sooooooo embarrassed, the big dummy was like "what the heck did I do?"

I hope Linda sees this thread. Brutie's pulled a few that were matchless, lol!

Ok, I don't know how appropriate this is, but I'm sharing anyway because it cracked me up.

The morning of my wedding, we woke up, Lacey was sleeping on the bed as well. Well one thing turned into another, and then stopped very abruptly. Lacey licked his bare ass cheek right in the middle of things - needless to say I wasn't so much embarrassed as he was and it definitely put a stop to sexy time.

Similar to the condom event when I still had Spank he jumped up on a friend of mine coming into the house. He had a string hanging out of his mouth. Friend pulled. Spank let go. It was not just a string in his mouth. It was a used tampon.

OH Gosh Casey did that once before as well at the DP. Lucklie I was able to stop him before he actually did anything, but I was so embarrassed that I hate taking him to the DP because I am scared he will do it again.

With Brutus it is more like how many times has your dog embarrased you?

Just a few times. The scary thing...I know Titus is going to as bad or worse than Brutus was.

Well... First of all, Izzie's got a 'tude. She likes to tell me off, frequently. Especially when she's had enough at agility after we've done our hour... She goes and sits in the tunnel and stares at me... the meanders to either the gate or the chairs and sits by the gate or makes herself comfy on someone's lap.


Also when she was just a wee thing... We took her to petland and she decided to escape her harness and go visit a group of children. I was sooooo embarassed.

OMG, you guys crack me up.

Ok, besides the *I'm gonna bark and lunge at the dog mom's trying to sell a training class to* which was, sadly, a regular occurrance early on in our relationship....

A few weeks ago we were at a fund-raiser for work at Petco. Luna had on her "service dog" vest, she was our demo dog. We were walking around the store taking a break, and of course she had to poop on the floor. In her vest. With, of course, several people watching.

Brutie and his redheads, lol!

Does he still blow the horn when you've been in the store too long?
