Just came home after spending a nice day with myself- lunch and all- to my 2 labs having ripped a garbage bag (ready to go out and dh over looked it)up and they even opened a cabinet and ripped up rice boxes, etc. AArgh!

On a good note, I found some knee high black boots on sale for $30!

Anyone have any DOG stories they want to share?!?

 
we learned early on that we couldn't leave cheese on the counter as it was just too tempting for

our mutt (husky/lab/?) - as a pup she stole and ate an entire 750g block of cheddar.
best story i've heard was of a friend's dog who made quick work of a huge cooked turkey that was left in the oven with the door open whilst the cook ran to answer the phone. the horror!

 
Sounds like something my Woofus, aka Toastie Boy, continental name Aldo, nickname

Destructo Dog, would do. His recent accomplishment was opening my hallway closets to eat through the copy paper boxes loaded with organized printed recipes. The recipes were all stuck underneath the pull-out doors and I had to remove every box I had in there and put in my storage closet that's now filled to the brim.

I've had him for 11 years now and there are too many things to list that he's eaten or destroyed.

He's a mighty little beasty boy with powerful teeth who is part Siegfried and Pit Bull. Oh but I just LUVAH him!!

 
When my darling (and piggy) belgian sheep dog Celeste was alive she

was trying to lick the dirty dishes in the bottom rack of the dishwasher (as usual) as I loaded it. Somehow she caught her tags, panicked and before I could catch her took off at a dead run through the house with the entire bottom dishwasher rack attached to her collar. I was terrified she was going to break her neck, but she finally slung it into a wall hard going around a corner and it came loose. It wasn't funny at the time, but I just about die laughing now every time I think of it.

 
My dog ate an entire chocolate house off a table at christmas one year while we were out.

The poor thing was sick for days! In retrospect, we're lucky it just got sick.

 
My dog Audrey has mellowed with age, but when she was six months old we had friends over for

a barbecue and to break in our brand new spa. There were three ladies in the group. After dinner everyone slipped into a bathroom or a bedroom to change into their swimsuits, leaving behind piles of clothes. All the guests were in the tub and I was about to join them when Jacques called me inside to see Audrey curled up on the couch with all three ladies' underwear. She was already asleep. At first we tried to figure out whose was whose and put them back, but what do we know about women's panties? We had to fess up.

 
My cocker, Emmitt, use to get into the refrigerator and sample

Emmitt, now 12yrs old, back in his ol' puppy days knew how to open the refrigerator. I discovered this one day after I arrived home early from work because I was having family over for lasagna. I wondered why Emmitt was not dancing all around when I got home, I just figured he was tired. Well, I found out he was hiding, and for good reason. He opened the refrigerator (I found this hard to believe, but he did!!) and ate a lot of the lasagna, some of the Italian sausages & meatballs. I could remember thinking why didn't he just eat the meatloaf why did he have to ruin my dinner instead of how did he do this? is he magical? I ended up ordering pizza for everyone. I finally caught him in the act... what he did was ... stand up on the refrigerator door, then turn his head sideways and grasped the handle in his mouth, gently lowered himself to 4 feet on the floor and then he braced his 4 legs- jerked his head which opened the refrigerator and walked backwards. I looked in through the kitchen window to catch him. Needless to say that I put a chain through the doors which eneded Emmitt's all you can eat buffett.

 
My Bassador went in the kitchen and ate a whole dozen of Krispy Kream donuts

and brought the last one in the living room and ate it in front of us! She ate my daughter's birthday cake while she opened her presents. We thought she was outside, but one of the children let her in. The dog lived to eat. She just couldn't help herself. She loved to ride. She rode with my husband to pick up Chinese food. He stopped to pick up drinks. When we went to eat, we pulled out and opened the containers and they were empty! There was a small hole in each one of them. Duchess had sucked out the food, when my DH ran in for drinks! No more food runs for Duchess.

 
Duchess is too much, I wonder if she is related to my Emmitt

I can't help laughing when you wrote about her coming out and eating the last krispy kreme, serously that is way too funny, Clark and I keep laughing. I thought Emmitt was the original food sneak but I guess Duchess says different. Though they do this we can't help from loving them. Thank you for sharing, a great way to start my day!!!!!!

 
Where there is a will, there IS a way! Is Emmitt a Lab, by any chance?

Wouldn't it have been great to have some of this stuff on video? Emmitt surely would have won a prize!

 
My terriers have little legs, so I only have to worry about what drops unknowingly on the floor. I

had just bought a cylinder of aromatherapy chewing gum (some days I'll try anything for a little peace)which, I guess, rolled off the table. When I finally found it, empty, next to Jade, my Australian terrier, I didn't know what to expect. I (briefly) wondered which end was going to blow bubbles. Fortunately, all went well in the end (pun intended), but my vet had a hard time understanding what the heck aromatherapy gum was.
