My dog ruins everything.
We got a new stereo for the bedroom on Sunday, and yesterday I came home to find the remote obliterated. I had this thing for one day. One day! I’m beginning to think Rowan has the power to levitate objects, because that, along with many other since eaten belongings, was up in a very high place she should not have been able to reach. She somehow managed to get The Bookseller of Kabul
The week before her homicidal tendencies towards inanimate objects seemed to wane, so we experimented with letting her have the run of the house while we were out. We started with a few hours at a time and gradually let her out the whole day. She was doing fine, and then on the third day something in her wiring got set to destroy. She pulled the trash down, and into her pee, which she then smeared all over the kitchen floor. She pooped all over the couch, ate the DVDs we needed to return to blockbuster. (Though I can’t say The Ring 2 didn’t have it coming.) She yanked a pile of CDs off my cd shelf and devoured them, leaving shards of plastic strewn about the carpet. I’m beginning to think she’s less puppy and more evil destructo robot. I imagine her with glowing red eyes, bits of paper flying from her mouth and raining over the house.
She’s since gone back to occupying only the kitchen while we’re out, relegated to only destroying juice bottles and the occasional trash can. The icing on the cake is while we were out purchasing the stereo in question, she busted down her baby gate. Not only did she eat 1. the orange Orbitz gum I’d just opened and left in a very high place, she ate 2. mounds of cat poop. Then she smeared her kitty cocktail all over the couch. Have you ever smelled orange poop?! I have, and nothing in my life, lest I encounter rotting zombie corpses, will ever smell worse. Clearly, Ikea must have had just this sort of thing in mind when they made the covers to these couches removable and washable. Maybe Rowan is just the vehicle for some zen forces trying to tell me I have too many material possesions in my life. And those zen forces would be wrong.
dog swallows a large object it could potentially get stuck in their system and require an expensive operation to get it removed. With a pet insurance policy you’ll be able to save potentially thousands of dollars. If you do decide to buy pet insurance just be sure to compare pet insurance policies so you can find the perfect plan for you.
It has got to be hard staying mad at something so darn KYOOT! (love the Rocky-grey-hoodie too!)
eating cat poop tho.. Ugh!
