Pees on laundry basket
Operates the pedal bin and takes rubbish into his bed like a canine sting of the dump

Ddog (no longer with us) knocked a drink over an almost-new laptop and wrote it off.

He had a very waggy tail and I'd left the drink in a stupid place Blush.

Would give anything to have him and his waggy tail back with us!

Ate the carpet
Ate a brand new pair of £160 football boots

Ate the work experience girl's lunch out of her bag. It was only when she said that she was sure her mum had packed her lunch that I looked in the dogs bed and found the foil Blush

Hamster ate most of her litter.

Fish (that we’d been recommended) ate the other 15 fish.

Cat killed & ate a mouse but left the intestines in the laundry basket in the freezing laundry room, when I reached in to the laundry basket the freezing mouse intestines pinged up and wrapped three times around my wrist like a really tight bracelet Envy

I've told this story so many times.
I used to have a Border collie, who for Reasons lived with my mum. Mum also had 2 cats.
When I got married my husband and I kept the top tier of the wedding cake, the bottom tier was served to everyone at the reception and distributed for distribution to wider family and the middle tier was going to stay at mums and she would have the middle tier to serve when friends came over etc.
Now, the dog was very clever and had taught herself how to open my mothers bread bin, so when mum had the middle cake tier she decided to keep it on the top shelf in her wardrobe for safety. About 6 weeks later, mum got back from shopping to discover that the dog had managed to convince the cats to climb to the shelf and push it out.
Fucking creature ate nearly the whole thing, tin foil and all and it was soaked in booze and hand painted icing- it was a gorgeous cake, about 10-inches round.
Mum called the vet and as soon as the vet asked if she had been sick, Kes hurled everything back up on the new living room carpet. And moped about the house for the next hour vomiting the entirety of the cake up. Vet checked her over and basically said she'd have a hangover but because she'd cleansed herself of it so quickly she was fine.

@PaperScissorsRock

Dog 1: ate a whole chocolate cake, had to go to the vets so they could make him sick. Along with the cake came up a whole red crayon and Peppa Pig’s jacket. Also swallowed a fruit shoot lid when out for a walk and ended up having it removed on New Year’s Day a few years ago. Apart from occasionally eating socks he’s now fairly well behaved.

Dog 2: pooed on the settee. (I believe she was pissed off about something).

Dog 3 (still a young puppy) wee’d on ds bed. Pooed in his crate and rolled around in it 🤮

My cocker eats socks and then regurgitates them a couple of days later, usually on the landing where I've stepped on them with bare feet first thing in the morning.

@Pumpkinstace

Killed and brought home someone's pet rabbit.
Are you Anne Fine?

@steppemum that's hilarious and definitely should be written into a sitcom.

cactusisblooming · 21/11/2020 07:04

My cat catches birds and rips the wings off whilst they are still alive 😭 He then brings it to us as a present. We now have a designated bird box that we place them in to die peacefully as the RSPCA and bird rescue places don't want me to phone. Last time I was horrified to find the bird dead at my back door, it had been ripped open from it's neck all the way down and its stomach contents and organs were on my new door mat. The murderer had worked out how to open the box 😭😭😭

@cactusisblooming Peacefully? You leave them lying in agony with their wings ripped off to die slowly and painfully. You really should put the poor things out of their misery immediately.

Hovverry · 21/11/2020 09:39

When our cat was a kitten he knocked everything off anything. If it wasn’t nailed down he had to push it to the floor. He broke so many things I cleared away every ornament, pen, book, mug, clock and so on. Think minimalism taken to extremes.
When someone visited she said I’ve got a little jug you could have for your mantlepiece!

Spudlet · 21/11/2020 09:40

Raided the same picnic twice. He was off lead on the beach and suddenly took off to see this group miles away - and their picnic. It was a winters day and the beach was practically empty, and I hadn’t had him for long so I was not expecting this at all. Anyway, got him back, apologised, put him on the lead, left the beach. Went up the cliff (a small one but still a cliff), walked along a bit, decided he’d be ok to be let off again. No. He went off the bloody cliff, all the way across the wide beach back to the picnic again 🙈🙈🙈 Little bugger!

The other one was even worse... he ran off with someone’s walking stick 😳 Took me a mortifying minute or so to get it back as well 🙈

He’s a ‘character’. Much slowed down in his old age, but he’s still got a touch of the devil in him... he gets away worth it because he’s also very charming 🙈

Bubbletrouble43 · 21/11/2020 09:47

Humped the local vicars leg when he came round to talk about our grans funeral arrangements.

CentrifugalBumblePuppy · 21/11/2020 09:52

Eaten through a wall.
Chewed through the internet cable.
Opened a locked guinea cage, taken one out & ‘mothered’ it (to death unfortunately - it’s cage mate did live another 8 years & outlived the dog)
Once, when I had a non paying client around my birthday, I scrapped together a pound & bought a packet of Iceland cream slices in lieu of a birthday cake. Leaving them on the counter to defrost, ddog made that the first day he’d ever stolen anything from the kitchen & ate the lot.
Cocked his leg up the Christmas tree.
Broken his sibling’s leg playing silly buggers.

Not the same dog though. This is 25 year of dog ownership since I’ve been in my own home!

My Mum’s dog ate a dining room table & all of her Club money banknotes (in the days of the Janet Fraser & Kayes catalogues). The bank refunded as many as the could using the excreted serial numbers...

Still love them more than life though!

Bubbletrouble43 · 21/11/2020 09:57

Another dog ate all the raw meat off the dining table intended for a fondue ( it was the 80s) as guests were arriving despite the dining room door being shut. He could open doors so we had had knobs fitted but this was the moment he worked them out. He was an insanely clever border collie we had when I was a child. We resorted to keys in the locks ( it was an old house) and he used to try to turn the key!

Bubbletrouble43 · 21/11/2020 09:59

My current dog jrt / chihuahua escaped through a tiny gap in the fence of a friends garden into the field next door which had retired donkeys in, it was a sort of sanctuary. He chased and terrorised these donkeys and it took me and my friend ages to get him back. I'd only had him from the rescue about a week so his recall was not good. That was very stressful.

sueelleker · 21/11/2020 10:01

My sprocker spaniel chewed my Kindle Paperwhite (I shouldn.t have left in on the settee)Funny, it didn't work after that.

MrsBungle · 21/11/2020 10:07

Worst my current 8 month old pup has done is be sick on my bed. Not her fault though.

My previous dog - a Weimaraner I have a list as long as my arm.

He ate dd’s entire chocolate hedgehog birthday cake. Still no clue how he got it, it was on a high up shelf. Not one ill effect for him.

He stole a whole cooked chicken from a group of people having a picnic in the park.

He ate a spark plug - fuck knows where he found that. Another highly expensive trip to the vets. On the way there he shat in the car. The most horrific and god awful smell. We had to scrap that car.

He once picked up a dead crow in the park and I went to try and get him to drop it it and he shook it spraying me with maggots.

Came home once and he’d literally raided the fridge. The door was open and everything was out and he ate everything including a whole block of butter.

I do miss him he was such a lovely dog but bloody hell he loved to eat!

Valkadin · 21/11/2020 10:20

My cat turned off my gaming console with her furry little bum in the middle of a raid, this is a big complicated multi person mission that can take a few hours.

tattooedmummy1 · 21/11/2020 10:26

My car is an arse hole, and I hate him. Because he's an arse hole. He tried to climb my curtains last week and ripped half the pole out of the wall.

He was chewing the Christmas tree this morning so has been put in the hallway to think about his behaviour. (don't panic, his food, water, bed, and litter tray all live in the hallway, and he has access to the rest of the house)

cactusisblooming · 21/11/2020 16:23

This was the advice of the local bird rescue sanctuary.

gettingolderbutcooler · 21/11/2020 16:33

Bringing back in a dead sloworm and letting it decompose in a secret place while we wondered where the horrible sickly smell was coming from. 🖕

DarkMintChocolate · 21/11/2020 16:45

At the neighbours’ 40th birthday party in the garden, they talked proudly about the robins’ nest in the tree - in the sight of the assembled guests, Dcat climbed the tree, and ate all the eggs. We saw her peering out the nest, dripping egg yolk from her mouth! Shock

At a street party to celebrate a royal wedding, some neighbours brought their puppy round. Dcat went for the puppy and dragged it into a bush - the dog was so terrified, it bit through its own tongue!

DD brought her boyfriend round to meet us. We had just sat down to dinner, when current Dcat brought a live chaffinch into the dining room and let it go!

GlamGloria · 21/11/2020 16:48

My last dog pissed on my friend's 40th birthday cake. Luckily his daughter saw and told someone otherwise we'd have all eaten piss-cake.
