My DP has just arrived home with flowers and a newly composed love song.... for the dog.

DP took the dog out for a walk on Sunday. She got injured when she leapt like a goat and one of her back legs landed down the slats of a storm drain.

It's not a bad injury. It's just a cut on the inside leg and she doesn't seem remotely bothered about it.

But DP feels guilty. He's just got home from a day/night away with work and has brought with him a bunch of flowers and several bags of dog treats as an apology to the dog.

Not just that, but he has also made up a song to the tune of S Club 7's "Never Had a Dream Come True". The lyrics are a mix of messages about how much he loves the dog and how sorry he is.

My DP is a good man. Mental. But wonderful.

Bless him. My DH is a daft sod where our dogs concerned. Have you heard the cheese tax song? DHs current serenade.

Hope your pooch gets better soon.

Is your dog named Waffle by any chance?

SpeshulKay · 28/03/2023 13:13

@Purplepluhs292 I hadn't heard Cheese Tax. Now I have, its awesome. Thank you.
In our house, we have the belly tax. Every time you walk past the dog, you have to give a belly rub before you're allowed to pass.

Thanks for the good wishes, she's honestly absolutely fine. I don't think she's even noticed the cut.

@SirWalterElliot No, it's not Waffle. But what a lovely name for a dog.

This is amazing DaffodilSmile

@SpeshulKay This is amazing 😂 Please can you write the lyrics to the song down here, we need to see them!

I sing ‘could you be, the most beautiful dog in the world, you’re the reason that god made a dog…’ to our pooch

This is amazing and absolutely something my barmy OH would do! I want to hear the song!

My dog will ignore me opening the fridge and grabbing milk, salad, anything except cheese. He recognises the sound of a cheese packet. The cheese tax in this house is paid frequently!

It's not just dogs that have a cheese tax...🤦‍♀️😺

DustyLee123 · 29/03/2023 16:17

He’s a keeper !

Bogiesaremyonlyfriend · 29/03/2023 16:25

😂😂 I've changed the lyrics to 'pointless' by Lewis capaldi to be about the cat.... I sing it to her while dancing around, she loves it....

Soubriquet · 29/03/2023 16:40

My dh is the same with our dogs. A complete soft sod. Even the cat gets away with shit

Grin

My dogs are mini famous. They appeared in a parody music video

FormerlyPathologicallyHappy · 29/03/2023 18:49

When the Bengal was alive dh would tell me you love that cat more than me and I’d say sweetie don’t compare yourself to the cat.

Now they're both dead I hope they’re together.

Our dog is a border terrier. My DP also sings but replacing 'daughter' with 'border' throughout.

I'll ask DP to re-sing the love song and get the lyrics for y'all Grin

I Love My Daughter (But Not in a Creepy Way) - feat. Pete Gardner - Crazy Ex Girlfriend

Having a daughter is weird.BUY ON ITUNES: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/i-l...And buy the "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend" Season 1 Volume 1 Soundtrack AVAILABLE NO...

This has melted my heart - sounds exactly like something my OH would do. If you don't sing to your dog are you even a dog owner???

We love the cheese tax song. To such an extent where if I say 'cheese tax' in ddog's vicinity, she will immediately run over to the fridge 😁
