went to walk dads dogs and give them some tea. Because the 2 girls fight at walk time we put the leads on, on the driveway (not sure why this stops the fighting). i open the door and they all run of up the drive in to the culdesac and jump in to an old ladies car and start barking at her. Thankfully only yorkies and the old ladie found it hilarious but i was mortified. Finally get them out and on lead and off we go and sophie bites a little jrt on the nose. Never had to say sorry so much on a dog walk before. to make me feel a bit better i think everybody should share their embarrassing dog stories
Oh dear, you poor soul (not laughing, honestly....well not much anyway). Okay, I have a few but probably the worst was when I met up with someone who used to be on Dogsey..........she has a dear JRT bitch, only young and not yet spayed. We took Jimmi and this little girl for a lovely long walk in the fields and they walked flank to flank, investigating holes together and generally having a good time even though Jimmi was on his fishing line as per usual. When we got back, I invited them in for coffee...........the minute the two dogs were loose in the house Jimmi went into full stud dog mode, and I mean full, in spite of the fact that he is minus a couple of important little bits. Every time we dragged him off he went bonkers trying to get back to her, tongue hanging out and eyes on stalks. It was HORRIBLE In the end the poor girl had to be put in the car, and her owner made excuses after a while and left. It took Jimmi hours to calm down I wondered whether he had been used for breeding amongst other things, and just assumed that after the initial walk date he was expected to get down to business. Who knows
Embarassing stories? Where do I start I went to see an elderly friend with my then dog Amy, This person had made some smoked salmon sandwiches and on offering me one explained that her dogs (which were in the kitchen) nearly got them. I noticed a bit missing/hair/teeth marks on my sandwich and I didn't fancy it so when the lady went out to replenish the tea pot I hid it in a napkin and put it in my handbag on the floor. The lady returned and Amy kept sniffing and whining at my bag even when I moved it she continued to whine . The lady wanted to know what was wrong with Amy .In the end I had to pretend to go to the loo putting the sandwich in the bin.
No phoebe finds other ways to make a fool out of me like covering me head to toe in cow poo or knocking me flat on my face outside the highschool at letting out time. Stealing food from peoples shopping bags when walking down street (its really hard to pull her away once shes spotted something she likes) pooping on peoples front lawns again really hard to move her on once shes made her mind up
Omg where do I start I think the most embarrassing was when Rocky was a pup (albeit a big pup!) and we had met up with his best friends owner Jo and her dog Henry the Beagle to go to the the park. Well there they were running around he darted straight into me and I went flying I was sooooo embarrassed! After that I gave him a very wide berth when he went into his crazy-running mode
Ok embarrassing but also lifesaving, as you know K9 is my system alert dog, well I was at a car boot sale & K9 was on me knee (I had broke me foot so was in wheelchair) we were going from stall to stall, when K9 jumped off my knee ran up to a young 6 year old boy barking & jumping up at his parents & back to me then back to the boy barking & again jumping up the boys parents, then K9 made to come back to me but stopped & ran full pelt to the young boy jumping up at him knocking the young boy over, he stood barking at his parents & then started licking around the boys mouth, my husband then realised what K9 was doing, he was telling us that the little boy sugar levels had dropped low, turned out the little boy was a diabetic, my husband told the boys parents that K9 was a system alert dog & was not going to hurt their son, it turned out the boy was verging on going into a diabetic coma, as his sugar levels were dangerously low.
Thats phoebes game. We call it bulldozers. Right in to the back of your knees and if she misses she comes back for another try
Wow, that is absolutely amazing. It's one thing a dog looking after it's owner, and quite another when it helps a stranger.
