Tell us the naughtiest thing your dog has done!

[ACooper]

I thought it would be fun if we all shared the naughtiest thing our current dog has ever done. If you have more than one dog you can share each of the dogs' stories! (I know for some of us it will be hard to pick just one)

Phoebe is easy to choose because she is basically a good girl. At one time in her life she had a major chewing problem, so we put her out in the backyard when we were going shopping. When we got home (2 hours later) every plant had been leveled...............I mean every last flower, bush, little tree EVERYTHING. How she ate my rose bushes (not tiny, 2 were over 6 ft high when we left) down to the ground without hurting herself I will never know, but she did.

Orson is a little harder to choose a story (he has so many in his short life) But one really bad one comes to the top like cream. He went through a phase about 2 months ago where he was showing jealousy for any attention I gave to anyone but him. Me and hubby were snuggled on the coach and Orson did not like this and kept barking and trying to come between us. My husband kept blocking him and soon Orson went away......................we assumed he admitted defeat.........WRONG!! Orson had went upstairs and peed on my husbands side of the bed to send a message on his territory! My hubby wanted to pee on orson's bed but I begged him not to make another mess for me to clean! That definitely earned him a night in the crate instead of our bed though

Now tell us your little angels story, I can't have the only little monsters in the world!

I mentioned this before, but this is the most memorable:
And I don't know which dog was more guilty.

I had made some tea.... 16 used teabags.. I layed them on a skillet on the stove... then I made bacon and poured the bacon grease over the tea bags.
I meant to throw them away when they cooled........ You can guess...
I didn't and the 3 dogs ate 16 tea bags covered with bacon grease. :yikes:

There were many other things in the past (thankfully).... Like
chewed up diapers
unmentionables from the bathroom wastebasket
tree ornaments
toys
pocketbooks

But I must say, since all of my dogs are OUT of the puppy stage... they behave wonderfully!

Ollies first hour here meant discovering my 1904 Steiff teddy bear (my Mother's ) on my bed . Grammy's fault !! Luckily the patch removed can be re-sewed .... I was offered $1600 for him 5 years ago ..........................

This is his famous bouncy bed too. WE did have three mattresses stacked, he has gone through both sides of each and is now down to one. It is asking alot of a pointer to live in such a small house as this, and he has only done this during great bouts of jealousy as when i took BUtch home in VIctor's car. If i lock him in the bedroom, he destroys the bed. IF i leave him loose in the house, he behaves like an angel, no trash, no disturbance of anything. Mary on the other hand will counter surf as well as trash bin raid before the car is out of the driveway so SHE must go in the bedroom while Vic has the rest of the house WHatever works right?

ahhhnononono GRammy not the STeif:yikes: ollie ollie ollie was so very very naughty!!!!!

 

[ACooper]

Wow, smkie...........but at least he looks very apologetic in the picture!!

and Ollie, Ollie..........not the 1600.00 teddie!

 

[Spiritus]

Naughty....

Shay: Tore the back door basically off it's hinges to get to in-season Trouble. Result? My first litter! ACK! Sigh. Not a bad combination pedigree-wise, but not quite the "type" of Belgian I want to produce. Brat-boy is now neutered.

Trouble: Tends to chew the pockets out of my jeans after I've been to training class. Result? I get new JEANS!? And I learn to make sure the door to the laundry is closed.

Skye: Shreds her bedding. Result? She sleeps without a nice soft blanket. Again, sigh. She was five when she arrived here, so she's past the "really bad" phase.

Jesse: Um.... well. She's my counter surfer. Enough said! LOL

 

[Buckshot]

Buckshot peed down the back of one of my coworkers when he was kneeling down to pick something up. He has also chewed up more stuff than I want to think about but as far as single acts goes I think peeing on Josh was the most unsavory.

 

[Dolly]

Umi is the Queen of Naughty! She tore up my sister's new foam mattress topper (when it was on the bed and covered up), and has jumped up to the very back of the kitchen counter and eaten 2/3 of a Costco pizza. She was round for days! :yikes: Then there's the sofa throw pillows in the living room, which can't be on the sofa anymore because she tries to eat them when they're in reach. She's also tried to tear apart the actual sofa cushions. And then there's . . . well, you get the idea. And these aren't from when she was a puppy, lol.

Flinx is my angel. Though he did put a dent in the screen door when he banged on it with his paw wanting to come outside with me, the big baby. And boy has he startled a lot of poor folks with that HUGE bark or his!

 

[bubbatd]

As to Ollie ... luckily he didn't get the eye or the straw stuffing . I also have a smaller Bear , same era . But the one Ollie got was the original white bear . My Mom got it for her 1st Christmas in 1904 .I can't sell anything !!! They mean too much to me !!

Honestly, the worst thing Tango ever did was tear up a newspaper - seriously. She nibbled on a shoe once, only because it was accidentally left out and she happened to be chewing her bone next to it. She didn't chew it badly though, there was only one little mark on it. She was the perfect puppy and besides the shoe and the newspaper, she never chewed anything that she wasn't supposed to. She's never done anything bad as an adult either..

 

[ACooper]

I need to check into getting a toller for my next dog
Just kiddin' I love my Orson! I would think he was ill if he wasn't up to something!
Buckshot.............the big question is..............did you keep a straight face when it happened??

 

[bumhouse]

Well, this is tough.....

Colt has a penchant for my Pottery Barn Rug - getting his teeth in the loops and pulling them out - he zeroed in on my Pottery Barn Rug obsession after he was here about 30 seconds and six months later, I still have to watch him carefully around that rug. I plan to eventually replace it and consider this one the "training rug"....

Of course, he is a Collie and very nippy so my children's bodies have taken the brunt of that - various scratches and teeth marks - not to mention their clothes - I explain the "holy", "ripped up" look is in.....

He also dug the grout out of the tile in my kitchen as a small pup but has fortunately ceased this bad habit...

Recently, during another visit from my mother-in-law (who insists she is fully capable of watching a puppy - after all she "rasied three kids and 2 dogs"!!) he chewed some molding (I think he does stuff like this when she is around to put her in her place and say "hey, you're NOT all that!!") Come to think of it, most of the Pottery Barn Rug was chewed during another one of her extended visits.....

Overall, I think the damage has been tolerable - it's like God knew I could handle the chewing and gave me a dog that was easily housetrained because peeing and pooping in the house, on the carpet, now that would put me over the edge!!!

 

[~Jessie~]

Where shall we start...

Together they have destroyed...

Phone chargers
a wallet
a belt
2 computer chargers (which eventually fried the motherboard to a $1400 Vaio laptop)
cord to a stream cleaner, in turn destroying the steam cleaner

I think that is about all. Haha.

Well, every night my husband's the last one to bed, so gets the last "let-out" duties. Because of the skunk population (and neighbours who are completely oblivious to the fine art of securing their garbage) around here, if it's after dark we take Quincy out front on a lead. Every night when he comes to bed I say, "Did you take the dog out?" and he mutters something that usually sounds somewhat like "yes". One night around 3 am we get woken up by the poor dog doing a dance on the end of the bed. Hubby forgot to take him out and he was in a dire way. I was groggy but remember him saying something about getting up and letting him out. Guess he fell asleep. He woke up pretty fast after Quincy peed on his foot.

He did weird things when he was young. I thought we had puppy-proofed pretty well and we watched him like hawks. But, just like kids.... out of sight for a moment....... He chewed a corner of our brand new leather couch (understandable though, was probably pretty yummy). He never has even attempted to get into our garbage, but only for the simple reason that he likes his leftovers served up on a plate. I went to the washroom one time and came back downstairs to find him up on top of the kitchen table finishing off my sandwich.

A picture is worth a thousand words:

 

[ToscasMom]

Colt has a penchant for my Pottery Barn Rug - getting his teeth in the loops and pulling them out -

OMG! Colt is related to Tosca! I have four pottery barn rugs and she went after the threads on every one of them, she also chewed the backing on two of them. I had to remove the rugs until she got older. Now she still falls off the wagon a bit but she's way better. If I hadn't rolled those rugs up for several months, they would have been history by now.

 

[Gempress]

Wow, this is a hard question! There is a reason my boys are called the Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

Zeus was a HUGE chewer when we got him. Until we managed to train him out of that, the most expensive items he destroyed include:
-hand-embroidered Chinese silk scroll
-new pair of hubby's $180 work boots
-limited edition Snap-on Tools soft sided ice chest
-A shop vac
-three pairs of my shoes, average about $45 apiece.

As for Voodoo, I think it had to be when he decided to show us that the solid wood trellis (cost $150 and a lot of time to make) that ran along the top of the stucco patio wall was inadequate. He jumped the wall and blew through the trellis like a cannonball; splintering wood flew everywhere. We had to dig into our pockets again and replace the entire trellis with rod-iron bars.

But we all love our dogs, right?

 

[J's crew]

The naughtiest??? Hmmmmm....

Long before I even knew what a crate was my female Rottweiler, at about 4 months old chewed the couch cushions and the back on both the love seat & the couch to shreds. It was a very nice leather set that was only about a year old.

I couldn't believe my eyes when I walked in the door, stuffing was everywhere, the couches were completely ruined. And she was sleeping amongst all this white stuff like a little angel. So, I had no choice.....I smacked myself and educated myself on the benifits of a crate.

 

[StillandSilent]

The naughtiest by far was the day all three animals got in cahoots and ate the families dinner. My father was thawing steaks on the counter, which he figured was safe because our dogs are small. The cat, who was new at the time, climbed up there and nibbled until he was done. He then pushed the meat off the counter, right into the waiting mouths of our dogs. The only evidence we ever found was a few shredded pieces of plastic at the top of the stairs. I know sneak beagle took it up there so we wouldn't know what she was doing.
Other stuff, ummm... During my graduation party, Radar raided my aunts room and came running into the living room with a pair of my aunts panties.
Lilly once ate a $500 beanie baby when she was a pup. Thank god I didn't pay $500 for it, but I was offered that much.

 

[iluvdogs]

One of my moms friends let her borrow her Fav. Summer dress, We had it hung up in closet, but it didn't have a door on it.

We went out to do some running around, when we got back we seen all this white rag looking stuff alll over the yard...Go to check to see what the heck it was....and

Sure enough it was her dress!!!..Bella and Trixie decided they wanted to play tug a war with it and tore it all up..

Trixie....we rented a movie at a video store, she got a hold of it at night and chewed it all up!!..Had to pay the video place for it.
