Thanks Empress I need it and wine .

Confused

He is now singing....

StateofConfusion · 14/09/2012 23:37

He's a labrador/flat coat retriever cross, but he is fecking HUGE, we had a Labrador and she was smaller than him fully grown and he's 7mnths! I'm 5"8 and if he stands on his hind legs he can look me in the eye!

Very handsome dog, utterly adorable and a bit thick, this week alone he's eaten candles, dvd cases, phone charger, 3 usb sticks, his own collar, some potatoes, apples, his bed, socks, a bottle of suncream... My mum told me this once I'd taken him home! He is very good apart from the eating of inanimate objects. Thankfully we don't have stuff anywhere, all he can do I knaw cupboard doors and lick my hard flooring.

There's a pic of him on my profile the day we got him.

After he ate his own bed we went looking for one big enough for him, he ended up with my dds toddler bed mattress and I made a cover for it, he fills and overlaps it, I'm sure he has great dane in him.

Good luck bonkey.

I really need to drag myself to bed but I'm now worried Milos going to eat my cooker or fridge door and I'm looking about the place for anything he can get his teeth around!

StateofConfusion · 14/09/2012 23:38

Oh and he ate a bag of frozen chips and a litre of icecream after my sister didn't shut the freezer properly!

BonkeyMollocks · 14/09/2012 23:42

My Lab ate a carrier bag once. She had blue poo Grin .

EmpressOfTheGoldOceans · 14/09/2012 23:44

Alfie the dachshund ate playdo once and had green poo Grin

What's he singing, Bonkey?

BonkeyMollocks · 14/09/2012 23:51

BonkeyMollocks · 14/09/2012 23:59

Ta very much! Grin

Its the ZOOM! bit that gets me....must be shouted Hmm

Hope you still have a house in the morning State !

We are off to bed in the hope that darkness and silence may settle the boy! Night I hope .

StateofConfusion · 15/09/2012 10:48

He managed to behave all night thank goodness! Dp and ds have taken the loon for a walk, dds watching peppa and I really want to sleep even though we didn't get up until 9 I am exhausted!

They should use this as a tagline for any lab cross breeds.

My lab x (x'd with what we don't know..her mum had lurcher and poodle in her lineage Shock) has, in her time, eaten:

  • my CD case and chewed the entire contents (ie, I had no music to listen to because she trashed the lot)

  • 4 advent calendars. No matter how high I put them/hid them, she found them and ate them. Try finding an advent calendar and then scoffing 23 chocolates the day before Christmas Eve.

  • cat food tin, from the allegedly dog-proof bin. There is a scar on her tongue to prove it.

  • a tub of margarine, had it been butter she'd have been in serious trouble, as it was I had to take her to the vets anyway as she was so sick.

However, my mum's dog, Stanley the Standard Poodle (R.I.P Sad) once stole my purse, I came home to find him in his bed surrounded by tattered leather and chewed cards. I freaked because I also had £100 in the purse. Assuming he'd eaten it I may have cried a little. Mum, whilst cleaning up the mess, took out his cover to shake it and found my money, in tact, tucked neatly under his covers!

He also once ate 10 frozen chicken fillets Hmm

He also once tried to play with a baby rat in the back garden, he was most put out when he bounced on it and it stopped moving.

Grin

(am now singing 10 little men in a flying saucer and have a craving for pom bears)

StateofConfusion · 15/09/2012 18:13

It ate cds brian that is impressive, our old lab was 17 when she died and just as fecking naughty as the day we got her, so why my mum thought another was a good idea is beyond me, he's been very good though, Mum arrived and he's gone stupid little sod! Old lab ate 4 thortons selection packs in under 10 minutes she located them, behind piles of other presents and the christmas tree, unwrapped, demolished the boxes and undid the plastic packaging, she was impressive! Milo is worse though, as its mainly stuff that's NOT edible!

Well I've been in a vile mood all day (naught 5yo, grumpy dp, and dp forgot to pay sky and spent the money elsewhere so NO tv aaaarghhhh) but have cheered up dramatically at finding an amby nature nest for sale up the road!

EmpressOfTheGoldOceans · 15/09/2012 21:04

What's an Amby Nature Nest?

I've taken a tier of the birthday cake to Honeydragon's new realm as a housewarming present, I hope that's ok. If they don't eat it I'll bring it back.

BonkeyMollocks · 15/09/2012 21:06

Ds went to sleep at near enough 12.45am last night.

7pm tonight!!!!

EmpressOfTheGoldOceans · 15/09/2012 21:12

Brilliant, Bonkey! Thank you. Yummmmm.

HD's lot seem to want the cake.

EmpressOfTheGoldOceans · 15/09/2012 21:18

I've invited them to our birthday party on condition they bring Wine and presents. I gave our address as Classics Grin

empress a weird crib hammock type thing for dc3, dd was a horrendous sleeper and I've heard more and more good things about these ambys and since we sold our normal crib after dd never slept in it I figured why not --im also terrified of another non sleeper-- if we could find one at a resonable price.

Love our address bonkey :)

Well ds has been so angry all day I'm considering a doctors appointment, he's been boiling up all summer and now seems worse than ever for no reason (eg, shouting at the grass) its really upsetting me and totally out of character he's still eating/sleeping etc as he once was. :( I understand school unsettled him but he was the same in the holiday.

Got some more uniform for dd today, horrah! She can go to nursery now and look lovely she seems so young but she is 4 in two months.

EmpressOfTheGoldOceans · 15/09/2012 23:06

We'll hide you, Zombie. Thanks for bringing the cake back.

Bet she looks gorgeous, State.

StateofConfusion · 16/09/2012 00:03

She does and don't let mumsnet hear but her nursery jumpers are purple so she is thrilled (ofc allowing her to like a girls colour makes me a failure and I just got flamed for saying she has pink shoes!)

EmpressOfTheGoldOceans · 16/09/2012 13:25

Her choice State Grin
I think it's only a problem when kids are forced into liking colours.

Look, Zombie brought the rest of the cake back.

StateofConfusion · 16/09/2012 14:00

I couldn't force that child into anything!

Mmm cake... Although tbh I was more excited about the pineapple I had for breakfast strangely. It caused some epic gymnastics from this baby!

DZH · 16/09/2012 20:00

Given the appetites of the Puddle community, I thought that some cake reinforcements might be needed. Smile

DZH I knew I always liked you :)

zombie were keeping him, k?

IamtheZombie · 16/09/2012 20:38
Shock

Could we sort of share him, State? Zombie really needs him to take her to hospital tomorrow. Well, it's the bringing her home from hospital when she's too zombied out to drive safely actually.

Zombie wishes she could work out who you were before you became Confused. She's crap at working out name changes.
