Aibu to ask for your stories on when your Dog/Cat hasn't behaved please?!

[pinkpetal2]

Having a crap day today and was reading a story about a dog who has no behaviour skills and takes itself for a walk. And I just wondered if anyone else has a story on when their pet has just not behaved at all. I love naughty pets

My DF's dog is a husky who somehow always manages to escape (absolutely no idea how). He went missing last year and was found running around the local park with two other dogs balls in his mouth and quite a few people trying to catch him. No one could get near him and he was having a great time!

For my birthday one year my parents booked day out at a local adventure Center for me and my friends, it was a fair distance from home we took our six month old pup with us as it was a rural area and they’d planned to go for a walk and then grab some bits for dinner while we were doing activities. Some senior officers from the local police force were also at the centre doing some team building that day And pup decided to pee all over the chief constables shoes when he gave him a fuss! fortunately chief constable kept dogs of the same breed and they are often used as police dogs so he took it quite well! On the way home pup raided the food shopping and munched his way through about £20 worth of steak that was supposed to be our dinner!

Same pup also climbed up on the dining room table and took a shit in the middle of it on Christmas Eve night, he’d never done anything like that before or after, it was so weird! Like a little pooey table centerpiece!

We woke up one night, at my bil's house, to find their fox terriers atop of the bed - peeing on it.

Then there was the bulldog that took itself off for walkies, and was found in Victoria tunnel, facing down a bus. . .

If my first cat got annoyed with me, she had a tendency to communicate this by shitting on my pillow.

My daughter actually had to inform her teacher that she was terribly sorry, she didn't have her homework to hand - because the cat ate it. I kid you not. Good thing she has a reputation for being a girly swot!

Oh god, i have probably lots. I will see what i can remember.

1. Postman arrived, DH opened the door took parcel in and went upstairs to put toddler down for afternoon nap. Comes back down after 10 min and sees front door open and no sign of the dog. Cue panic, he runs out of the house and up and down the street looking for him. A neighbor a few doors down thankfully saw our dog running and caught him, so they were reunited. I was at work and non the wiser!

2. I was snacking while watching tv, i left my plate on the crouch's arm and went to the kitchen. As i was walking back i saw dog rushing off upstairs, i had a look at my plate and i swear there were more cheese strips on there before i left!

3. Toddler was holding some ham and walking around munching on it. Need i say more? Dog very carefully (i will give him that) grabs the end of the ham and pulled it out of DC's hand. Then off he went in his bed to eat it! He didn't know i was watching as he saw me walking off to the next room. When confronted with 'what did you do?', immediately he hung his head in shame and he walked off with his tail between his legs, so he knew he wasn't supposed to do that!

We still talk about that Christmas, in what must have been 1982 or 1983...

We had an under the counter fridge in the open plan kitchen-dining-living room. We had Christmas dinner. We put leftovers in the fridge - half a turkey on the plate, wrapped in foil. Lots of cold roast potatoes and parsnips, sprouts, carrots, a tub of gravy. Other things too I think - maybe a pudding of some kind, definitely some custard.

Very early in the morning on Boxing day, my mum got up to go to the loo, and let the cat into the living room, where he went to sleep in front of the fire. The dog was already asleep in her bed under the table. Mum went back to bed.

Two hours later, we all came downstairs, to utter carnage. The dog (Badger, she was a very good girl apart from this) had managed to open the fridge and drag out more or less everything. Ginger (a very very good boy usually) had clawed off the foil over the turkey, and between them they ate half a roast turkey, loads of potatoes and veg, the dog ate most of the sprouts. The gravy was all gone, and smeared all over the kitchen tiles, there was custard everywhere, turkey bits and foil bits everywhere.... and Badger and Ginger fast asleep together, looking very VERY bloated and comfortable in front of the fire. Badger farted like nothing you've ever heard for the next 3 days.

@WhenISnappedAndFarted 😂 bless him.
@Skigal86 I'd of cried laughing did he look very proud of his masterpiece?

@mbosnz we had a Cat who hated coaches and every time a coach was coming down our road she would sit in the middle of the road and start washing her self, and this poor coach wasn't able to come any more forward because of her. We used to argue over who would go and move her, she was so embarrassing

Our beagle once did a runner on a walk (chasing a rabbit) and he was with my FIL at the time. FIL spent two hours looking for him - shouting, whistling, looking in undergrowth etc. He was really panicking and went back to his van to look further afield. The dog was sat by the van as if to say "where the hell have you been?!"

My (neutered) boy dog took a shine to my aunt’s (neutered) girl dog and, after following her around for the afternoon, proceeded to try for a little Christmas lovin’ right in front of my 5 & 7 year old cousins.

When our lab was 3 months old we left her crate in the kitchen open for the first ever time whilst we nipped to mums, we made sure there was nothing in reach that she could eat/destroy and went off to mums. Half an hour later we got back, she was looking very guilty and there were little pieces of orange paper on the floor, little sod had somehow got on the worktop and ate an entire Warburton's Toastie loaf. We figure she must have climbed up using the drawer handles as there was absolutely no other way she could have got up there

Also, I’d only had my (rescue) dog about a week, when my dad came to visit. I was unloading shopping and my dad said he would take the dog for a walk. Fine, I said, but don’t let him off the lead because he has no functional recall yet.

It was warm so all the doors were open as I went back and forth from the car and as I was unpacking the last bag I felt a wet nose and furry face rub on my leg, and no lead or Dad in sight.

Dog was very pleased with himself that he’d found his way back to his new house all on his own. Five mins later my very out-of-breath father ran through the door exclaiming, “he’s run off!”, before noticing Dog looking very smug in his bed.

Apparently he thought I was being over-cautious and that Dog would be fine off the lead...

Dog is not allowed on the sofa, he is curled up small so that i don't notice the 30kg lab on the sofa...he is also snoring.

His eyes are closed, and if he can’t see you, you can’t see him.

Buy a black sheet to go over the sofa and help him camouflage his stealth sofa snoozles!

Dog is a big boy (think large german shepherd but longer in body) and when he was about 6 months we had a couple of friends and their daughter (11) round. She loved Dog and he loved her and they spent a good couple of hours playing together. When it came time to say goodbye I took my eye off Dog for all of 5 seconds when I heard her cry "Look! He's giving me a cuddle!" and I turned back to see he did, indeed, have his paws up on her waist - and was attempting the type of cuddle only grown ups should do. Mortified

Another time he was off playing with another dog he's friends with while I spoke to the owner, a very well-mannered older gentleman. Dog comes over to me to check in and the gentleman praises this good behavior for an adolescent dog just as Dog cocks his leg and wees on his shin.

My old dog used to bark at cars, but only if they were diesels. Some particular models made him very cross indeed.

One of my current dogs hates having a bath, but will happily sit and "hide" in an empty bathtub when she's given us the slip.

My dad had an elderly cat who liked drinking out of the loo. Cat disappeared one day, last heard meowing loudly upstairs. Dad convinced himself that the cat had drowned himself in the loo and somehow pulled the toilet lid down in the process. Cat was fast asleep in a cupboard.

Last time I took the cat to the vet he curled a big turd out on the examining table

Cheers for that, puss.

Oh, I just remembered when my sister brought her cat and dog home. We had a corner shop, with housing above.

In the evening, the dog was seen hoofing it down the street with the very special steak that was to have been our dinner, in his mouth.

In the morning, my mother went into the shop, to find that the cat had been shut in over night, and besides shitting and pissing everywhere, had eaten through the cellophane wrapper, and consumed an entire Victoria Sponge, encased therein.

And of course, promptly added cat sick to the shit and piss.

My mother had some very salty observations to make about my sister's cat and dog. The invitation to come stay, was never extended to my sister's pets again!

Mine once peed on the vet nurse when she picked him up off the scales after telling him he was overweight

Awwww these stories are fab!

DCat is a very anti social soul - the only person she really likes is me. When we go away for a couple of nights we always get a cat sitter in. They’re a lovely local firm and pride themselves on leaving a daily diary. Every time our diary goes something like - changed food and water, cleared litter tray, jangled toys, no sign of [DCat].

It got so bad that when the owner came round to
pick up new keys one time I made DH go and scoop out the cat so that I could prove she existed.

Turn on sky news now! A a collie running behind the guy being i terviewed, having great time

ah missed it

My border terrier (he was around 1 year old at the time) managed to slip out of our front door and ran to see another dog in the street. The dogs owner then shut my dog in his front garden so that I could get the lead on him, however my dog noticed that his front door was open and proceeded to run into the house, running all over their furniture. To make matters worse they had a cat so he chased the cat around for a while and once he'd had enough fun doing that he polished off that cats food from its bowl 🙈 I've never been so embarrassed, needless to say we moved house not long after that thank god 😂 love him to bits but he can be a right a hole sometimes!

My cat refused to wee. £800 vet bill later and they tell me stressed cats don't wee so take him home and see what he does
I get to the vets and as the vet picks him up, he glares at her and lets out a giant wee all over her
He also deliberately threw up over the lovely vet nurse

God there's so many.
On his first day at doggy day care with a local retired couple, Ddog stole his "uncle Franks" bacon butty.
He also ran off with our builders lunch box.
He wee's at the vets, every single time. Sometimes actually on the vet.
He has an amazing knowledge of English and listens in to our conversations, at the mere mention of the word bath, he runs upstairs to hide under the bed.
When people come to visit he sits there licking his bollocks loudly.

Once when I was walking my young dog in the woods with my friend........a woman with two young children were passing us. Scooby (my dog) clearly took a shine to the young boys bobble hat and as he was passing us, with no warning whatsoever, Scooby leaped up and whipped it off his head! He never touched the boy, just took his bobble hat clean off!

Thankfully the little boy, his sister and their Mum all found it hilarious!

My dog ate a dead starfish once, then vomited it up in my car on the way home... It was the worst thing I have ever smelled
