DH dressing up as a dog!

Hi Girls

I've found myself in a bit of a pickle and I don't know what to do. My story is a little unusual, so please be patient with me. About 6 months ago, I started to become suspicious that DH was bringing another woman in to our home when I'm at work (he works from home and was being quite distant at the time). I decided to install small hidden cameras around the house to see if I could catch him out. I know I should have just come out and asked him, but I didnt think he would tell me the truth. Well, after about a month of checking the footage back each day, I couldn't actually find any evidence of DH doing anything particularly interesting. I really felt relieved, but guilty that I'd been watching him. I should have just pulled out the cameras there and then, but I decided to keep watching the footage back each day. About halfway in to the second month I saw something I really wasnt expecting and I still don't know how to take it. Basicly I saw DH go in to a cupboard and pull out some kind of back pack. From the back pack he took out what appears to be a dog suit and put it on. I honestly dont know how to say this without sounding stupid, but about onece, maybe twice a week DH has been dressing up like a dog and running around the house pretending to be a dog!

I honestly almost wish he had just been having an affair as I would have at least known how to deal with that. It doesnt appear to be anything sexual, but his behavior is just so strange! running aorund the house on all fours with his tongue hanging out. Even pretending to bark as mail comes through the door. I tried to find his costume to confront him about his behavior, but when I looked in the cupboard it was gone! Worst of all, I can't reveal to him how I know what he's been doing because I've been filming him in secret, which makes me seem like a stalker!

Do any of you have any advice, I don't want DH to think I'm crazy, but he's running around our home pretending to be a dog and we have 2 children together. Again, I don't think it's anything sexual, but it's sertainly not normal.

What should i do!?!?

Wow! That sounds ruff fur sure. Before you make any decisions, paws for thought, do you think some bitch has been leading him astray etc etc.

flowerythorns · 12/09/2018 12:44

Really?

Aprilshowersnowastorm · 12/09/2018 12:45

Urgh has he been dry humping your sofa cushions - or worse??

Rebecca36 · 12/09/2018 12:46

Seriously weird. Where will it all lead, I wonder?
Make sure he's wormed and de-flea'd regularly.
I wouldn't tell him he's a 'good boy' though.

Do speak to him about it but make sure you're not heated at the time.

Bitrustyandbusty · 12/09/2018 12:49

Do you think he also goes out ‘dogging’?

HarmlessChap · 12/09/2018 12:52

He's found the cameras and is screwing with your mind..... Doggy style!

IhatetheArchers · 12/09/2018 12:52

Reminds me of that seriously strange Ikea advert with someone dressed up as a lion frolics with small children.

HebeMumsnet · 12/09/2018 12:58

Off you go, OP, OFF! You've been a BAD BOY.

Thanks for the reports, folks. We've shown this one to the door. We're quite enjoying the replies though. Mind if we leave Rover up for a bit longer?

SparklyMagpie · 12/09/2018 13:01

God, throw the guy a frickin bone

HarmlessChap · 12/09/2018 13:02

You'd have thought she would have had an inkling when he went chasing after the squirrels in the park.

CaptainKirkssparetupee · 12/09/2018 13:02

So many fetish posters post here ....

Love the replies though.

Grimbles · 12/09/2018 13:05

called puppy play and it's a sexual fetish. He sounds like he has a BDSM/kink side that you may (or may not be aware of). Is he gay or do you have any suspicions that he could be gay/seeing other men?

How does being gay relate to the rest of your post? Hmm

YetAnotherSpartacus · 12/09/2018 13:08

Wow. Sounds like you need to keep him on a shorter leash.

BarbaraHepworth · 12/09/2018 13:08

One of you is barking mad.

Jeippinghmip · 12/09/2018 13:10

I thought the school holidays had finished.

GinAndTings · 12/09/2018 13:10

hahahahahaha thanks for brightening up my boring lunch!

wanderings · 12/09/2018 13:11

Is he Mr Darling?

INeedNewShoes · 12/09/2018 13:12

NotMyFinestMoment - what an apt username you have.

SneakyGremlins · 12/09/2018 13:14

Oh piss off, 99% of us aren't into shit like that. It's far more likely to be straight men, so don't use gross shit like that to stereotype us please.

ShotsFired · 12/09/2018 13:26

Dog suit.
In a backpack.

Is it like a pacamac that sort of unfolds from/back into itself?

C8H10N4O2 · 12/09/2018 13:34

Is his nose cold?

AndNoneForGretchenWieners · 12/09/2018 13:37

I watched a documentary on channel 4 about this once. Seriously weird. But people were willing to go on screen to show their puppy costumes and even did a meet up in London. Confused

December2018 · 12/09/2018 13:38

I think it's when he starts shitting in the garden and drinking out the toilet is when the real worries start...

Does he rub his arse on the carpet too?

MadeForThis · 12/09/2018 13:38

Does he lick his own balls???

IsaidMrDarcynotArsey · 12/09/2018 13:41

Get him retrained as a service dog ! Might as well be useful.
