What is the most embarrassing thing your dog has done?

[NeilB]

For the longest time, one of our previous Greyhounds held the record for attending a Greyhound exhibition at a local shopping mall. His nerves got the best of him and as I walked him out through a packed food court he stopped and dropped a stink pile.


This might take the cake though.



You?

I shop at a small dog supply, you know the mom and pop shop where you could bring your dog with you looooong before there was a petsmart/petco.

I take the dogs every time I visit because they like looking and smelling, LOL. Orson and Phoebe have been there a million times, we know everyone by name and even many of the shoppers.

Orson dropped a stink pile right in the isle on a SATURDAY The owner laughed and brought me paper towels and cleaner.........but I was so embarrassed I could barely get it picked up!

Hannah "pants'ed" me one day when we were at the park. She likes to smack with her paws when she plays and she smacked the leg of my shorts and yanked them right down. I was mortified. I don't think we've EVER gone back to that particular park again. It was so busy that day too.

Ella likes to drop "stink piles" ( or as we like to call them "Ella bombs") on my trainer's agility field set up, which is a COMPLETE stink-pile free zone.

It's a toss up between Lyric and Jose`. When Lyric (now gone to the bridge) was under I think a year but strong enough, as we entered the arena for an obedience class, he lunged to go see another dog and pulled me down prone in the dirt.:yikes: I was sooooo embarrassed and humiliated and pissssssssssssst! I called him the F word and reached out as I lay there and grabbed his muzzle and gave it a little twist (something I'd NEVER in a million years normally do.) And normally, once we were "working," he never ever did anything like that...was perfect around the other dogs. We just hadn't started doing anything and so he must have thought he was on recess. LOL.

None of my dogs has ever, ever marked indoors anywhere. Not too long ago, I took Jose` and Chuita into the little corner store because the gals wanted me to bring them from the car to visit. (this is a very, very small resort "town," not really a town and very casual and dog loving) So, I brought them in with no leashes and the gals ooed and ahhhed and fussed over them. Jose` wandered to the gift area of the store, just close by the check stand. He proceded to lift his leg on a pair of flannel boxer shorts with 'mooses on them. I sharply said, "eh-eh!" and he stopped. He got most of it on the slate floor but one or two splashes...drops got on the shorts. I offered to buy them, but the girls said, "nah....nothing much appears to be on them." And they just got a paper towel and some water and wiped it off quickly and put them back. LOL. Isn't that awful. So, needless to say, I was horrified. I said, "he's never done that!" They said another little boy dog was in there and did that a lot and so that may be why Jose` did it. That other dog has been 86'd from the place. Jose` is on probation.

So if you're ever in north Idaho, don't buy the cream colored shorts with mooses or pine cones or whatever else was on them hanging on the outside of the rack.

Chulita's only embarrassing thing is she licks people too much when they hold her. She's much more lady like than the boys are gentlemen, that's for sure. I guess the saying, "boys will be boys" is appropriate.

Voodoo----hmm. Probably the last time we went to the vet. The whole visit was humiliating. He had a gas attack in the waiting room, and spent the entire visit audibly farting. Loudly. Then he farted in the face of the tech who was trying to weigh him. And once it was time for shots, he started screaming and howling like he was being killed. Even when they were just squirting his leg with the cleaning solution.

Or, there was the time he was alone loose in the house. I had left a 10 lb bag of frozen chicken on the counter to defrost. I didn't think much of it--the chicken was a 10 lb block of solid ice, so I was sure Voodoo wouldn't mess with it. I had relatives in town visiting, and Hubby and I invited them to come over and see our new remodeling. We proudly opened the door to show them our spotless house....only to reveal a living room literally COVERED with bits and chunks of frozen raw chicken.

LOL Gempress!!! Too funny.

My dog has excited urination... 'nuff said.

 

[dr2little]

I once took my perfectly well behaved puppy (Sophie) as my Demo Dog to a rescue foundation seminar that I was teaching. No sooner did we all get comfy and start the question/answer portion... when Sophie squatted and peed a KEG FULL right at the front of the room.

It was of course ENTIRELY my fault. I had decided at the last minute to bring her along and didn't even give her a final potty break. I'm pretty certain that I lost a little cred. no matter WHAT my explaination was..

Oh well, Sophie felt better and it was a doggie daycare so easy to clean up.

Maggies not the biggest fan of men in the world. THough she rarely ever pee's out of fear. But awhile back this guy came over that had never been here before. Mags jumped up in my lap which isn't unusual when she's feeling nervous. It wasent until I felt the hot wet feeling all over my legs that I realized she had pee'd all over me. Talk about embarrasing!! Needless to say I had a hard time trusting her on my lap with new people after that.

Sawyer embarrases me everday lol. But I havent had a major moment for a couple months lol. It was back in November and I was taking Sawyer for his daily hour long walk. It was cold/wet and snowing lightly out but there were still leaves on the ground blowing around. Sawyer is usually pretty good on lead but being a puppy he has his moments. So as we walked across this muddy puddled area and a leaf skittered across our path. Well out the window went my well behaved puppy and Sawyer lunged with all his might at the funny leaf. And down I went into a deep freezing puddle........face first. Of course people were outside at the houses where we were walking. It was not fun lol.

Well, when Daisy would go to the vet for a nail trimming, she would scream and cry like they were trying to cut off her leg, poo herself, pee herself, and express her anal glands. I was always embarassed because I felt like they thought I wasn't working with my dog to get her to accept nail trimming, but I've tried, and I even messed with her feet when she was a pup like they tell you to, but she still hates nail trimming.

Daisy gets a sedative before we go to the vet now, and it all goes much better; she doesn't even pee on them!

Benji is an excitable pee-er, but I don't get embarrassed about that. Its quite common in little dogs, and the doggie daycare and the boarding place are quite used to excitable pee-ers. Well, once in a Petsmart Benji lifted his leg on a dog sweater. I was a little embarrassed about that.

Bernie finds ways to embarrass me every day with his "selective" recall. We live near a park that is dog friendly, people friendly, snowmobile friendly.. you get the pic. There are times when there is no one to be found anywhere, and times when it's a literal zoo of crazies. We try and avoid the place during "peak" times, and Bernie is now.. always on leash with people around.

Last fall, Bernie was about 8 months old, we'd had a full summer of "tourists with pork chop bones/corn on the cob/garbage strewing @sshats, and we were finally able to walk in peace with out a lot of pulling crap out of Bernie's face. I decided to let him off leash, noticing the one man, probably 1/2 mile away, sitting with his coffee cup looking out at the lake... no worries, Bernie is distracted by whatever distracts beagles, he's good with people, loves babies, and heck.. let's just wander.

Yep.. the last sight I see of my husky/beagle dog is his butt in full gallop, across the 1/2 mile distance of the park.. for the ONLY person in the place who is sat with his back to us, not seeing what's coming. Again.. thinking he's being a pain with his recall, but not overly worried.. I see my dog take flight up the seat of the picnic table this guy is at, lean down, and back over the other side of the table with a large slice of the mans PIZZA! I do not know who was more astonished.. me or the guy. Bernie of course was in his glory, man was.. perplexed/amazed/not overly mad.. I'd have been..:yikes:

The guy.. for some reason.. by the time I get up to said pizza thief, apologizing profusely, yelling at my dog, and trying to disappear into the sand :dunno:, is now peeling off the pepperoni on the remaining slices of his pizza, throwing them on the ground, and stomps off to his car, to I assume.. consume the rest of the meatless pizza. WEIRD!

Yes I did offer to pay, and we are far more concious of the "nose of a beagle, speed of a husky", and Bernie is leashed more than he likes.. but d@mn that dog!

He sneezed so hard on a down and back that he tripped, hit his head on the floor, (low-rider, remember) slid and ran into the judge. Then shook his head, mystically like he had been in a dream and pretended to have just woken up...attempted a stack and to bait but was probably dizzy from bumping his head so he just stood there like and oaf and we laughed at him...but only for a second or two.

My dog has excited urination... 'nuff said.

Jag was the ultimate at excited urination as a puppy.

My mom has always had a woman come once a week to clean. She is a huuuuge dog person, and to this day says that there is not a single dog she has met in her entire life that she loves more than Jag, and Jag loves her as well. All we have to do is say her name and he runs up the door and sits there waiting.

When he was a puppy, but was old enough to have developed a relationship with her, he greeted her out on the porch, and while she was petting him and greeting him, he rolled over on his back and started peeing, so it was like a water fountain.

The other day! Lilly, my well behaved, poster child for mature level dogs, usually keeps Ben in line.
We were at the forest and Ben took off after 3 boxers. I recalled him and he came back with no problems at all. He was almost to me when my angel of a little girl takes off after the boxers. She, however, did not recall! I was furious and highly embarressed! The poor man and his very polite boxers stood and waited for me to fetch her.

She got told off all the way home! I was so dissapointed in her! Her recall is usually flawless!

couple of years ago we went to a local parade with Jack. He was air scenting as we walked by this lady but I thought nothing of it---it was his first major outing since surgery and I figured his sniffer would be going. As we got closer to the lady I guess he smelled something he liked because he stuck his nose right up the back of her shorts and goosed her. Luckily she liked dogs and was a good sport about it....

She was in heat! :rofl1: My puppy is just happy to meet everyone so Izzy runs up to every dog/human/squirrel she can even in harness, thus trying (and failing) to pull me to said object. It makes me feel like I have a poorly behaved dog *sigh* Love her though!

 

[Tenebrion]

well... aside from the time in Houston where the school bus stopped infront of the house we were staying at and Brutus dropped a doodle. Mind you all i heard was "EWWWwwwww" from the kids and then horrendous laughter...

Brute is a ladies man... apparently. If any female, ANY female comes near him, aside from me. He lifts leg and starts... ehm.. licking... Seductively.. well as seductively as he can...

So we're at the vets office which is mainly all women aside from two male techs and the older two vets.. All the women are fawning over his pretty face and petting him. Once they stopped, he properly put himself on top the table by climbing over me, as if he had no training, onto the bench and up to the table. lays down and proceeds to stare down every female that walks by, making damned sure to make eye contact and then.. starts licking.

he does that *stare* "you know you want it" *lick* *lick*

all the girls laughed... i was mortified...

bahahahahahaha


Worse one I had was bringing a guy home. Spanky and Miley were all jumpy, happy town, PET US PET US PET US! And typical Bandit was sitting off in the corner, giving him the stink eye. Things proceeded to heat up later (clothing still on thankgoodness) and Bandit apparently wasn't going to be having any of that. He mounted the guy and rather aggressively began to hump him.



I was laughing so hard. I couldn't even pretend to be mad. That was just funny.

OMG........:yikes: After reading many of these replies, I will take Orson's stink pile at the pet supply ANY DAY of the week! :rofl1:
