Dogs Caught in the act!
Page 18
Here is Shadow, the
Shiloh Shepherd puppy at
11 weeks old. She was playing happily with her toy ring, so I proceeded to
make lunch and clean the dishes. I didn't check her for about 10 minutes
because I was hungry and she had been playing contentedly.
Then I heard a funny noise. Sure enough, she had gotten
into the trash that was set on the floor for about 5 minutes on its way out
the door. Lesson learned? Never set a trash bag down on the floor near a
puppy.

This is Shadow, a

Puppies will often find a secure enclosed, or partially
enclosed space to rest. It feels more like a den, or their birthing nest, if
there is protection of some sort.
Just be aware; if the space is something she can do
damage by sinking her teeth into, you keep your eye on her and teach her not
to chew it. "Shadow NO, Don't Chew that Chair!"
""But I wanna go too, Mom!" Brandy Ann
of Lioncrest Kennels, and Olde
Victorian Bulldogge, tries to squash her 75 lb body into our Chihuahua's
carrier stored in a closet."

"My
Springer Spaniel mix, Nikki, is a
food hog. She will turn the bowl over, push it across the floor and generally do
whatever she has to do to get the last morsel of food! This time her greediness
got the best of her! I was in my bedroom and kept hearing a thumping noise in
the dining room. It was Nikki bumping into the walls, table, and chairs to try
to get her food jar off her!"

"Imagine my surprise when I
found Tanner, my one year old
Goldendoodle,
happily working on his paper towel project. He'd managed to nudge
open a cabinet, select two rolls of paper towels (note the different
designs) and "do his thing." He was very proud of himself."

"I
took this photo of Daphne, a Rat Terrier/Chihuahua mix at 6 months old. She was
surprised when I caught her shredding a napkin."

"Casey, the 8 month old
Boston Terrier is a very curious dog, she
likes to chew and explore everything in the house. Her favorite thing to do is
to take things that do not belong to her and hide them under the bed so that she
can chew on them at a later time. She sometimes gets too excited and runs like a
nut through the house and jumps on the furniture. Once in a while she forgets to
jump and runs into the couch head first."

"TonyToo, a 1 year old
Bichon at the time (he is now 17 and going
strong!). He had earned the right to free roam the house while we were out by
being a good little puppy…until we came home to toilet paper strewn about!
Needless to say, the bathroom doors were no longer left open."
"Mommy’s back is turned and WOW…I smell
pepperoni, salami, and CHEESE…. oh boy, I LOVE CHEESE. If I was just two inches
taller!" "(Elizabeth the
Bichon was
7 years old at the time.)"
