I'm the pack leader dang it!

I love my dogs, truly I do. Despite the chronic hot hole that's stained my carpet, the chewing that's claimed many a toy, the insane vet bills, and the piddling contest they had all over the house (so glad the puppy stage is over!)....I still love those mangy mutts. I've even turned a blind eye when they've taken the food right off of the kids plates. But this time they've crossed the line...

Here's a little background info...I'm done having babies. No more getting knocked up. Never again will I be heavy with child. No bun in this oven...unless it's cinnabon. So I've been busy cleaning and sorting through all the baby items I'm parting with since like 8 of my friends are currently gestating(and so we can reclaim our garage). I cleaned, scrubbed, sorted, everything was ready to go....so what did the dogs decide to do??? EAT THE FRIGGIN HIGHCHAIR!! Which was in perfect condition, by the way!! I could have murdered them! I may as well have just burned a stack of twenties!!

However...they're just so stinking cute! I can't stay mad. Bruiser walks around with his Foofy and Buhby all day and Sampson thinks he's a lap dog and literally sits in your lap. They're a bunch of teddy bears. Plus they let me take crazy pictures of them and they LOVE IT! And smart too!! I taught Bruiser how to hit the light switch today. BOOYA! Maybe tomorrow I'll teach him how to bring me the diapers and wipes! And who needs to mop when you have 2 dogs...I just let them clean it up! Hooray for laziness! In fact I don't even have to get up to open the sliding door for the dogs...they're very independent, just watch the video! Now if I could only get them to learn how to rub my back, life would be gooooood. So despite the fact that they just cost me a pretty penny...I'll let it slide today...but so help me if those dogs crap out plastic in my house....they're goners!

Boosa & Sang Sang on Cinco De Mayo! Ole!




Sorry for the crappy video...I only had my normal camera...and wow, it is a pain to download!!

  1. I LOVE THIS, as you know, I have 5, as in 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 - Boxers, LUVERS THEM SO MUCH! Webe and Tecate, the oldest two (10 years each) can open the door - Priss (7), Cinnamon (2) and Ellie (2) have not learned all their older siblings skills yet!

    Thanks for sharing the great videos!

  2. Me too girlie...NO MORE!!! As the saying is for pets: "We're Fixed". Both at that :) I love how your dogs even play dress up. You've got me laughing again. Have a wonderful day.

  5. I had a friend who had a boxer, he said the dog was dumber than a bag of hammers I told him the dog was just too smart to do what my friend wanted him to do! They are so adorable!!

    We don't have any dogs, but we watch my mom's lab and we like to call her HOOVER, she cleans up the kitchen floor after dinner with the boys like no body's business!

    Oh yeah and I have a TON of baby stuff to get rid of too....wish I knew a bunch of people "gestating" LOL

  10. Dogs. Can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em. I often tell my 2 chihuahuas "be glad you're so cute.." lol.

  13. They are so cute! It's amazing how much we put up with for unconditional love isn't it?

    That video is great! Too bad mine can't do fancy tricks like that. The first thing I'd do is teach them to get me a drink from the fridge!

  15. Well, my dogs haven't pooped plastic, but they have THROWN IT UP! All over the place. Stinking dogs. Ugh, my husband had one of those jump ropes with all the plastic beads on it? Well, that rope broke and all the plastic beads flew all over the yard. Hubs thought he got them all, but of course my dogs knew otherwise. I had throw up on my floors and rugs for two weeks straight! If it wasn't one dog, it was the other!

    I hate plastic.

  16. The title of your thread immediately caught my attention. My parents recently adopted a dog that they thought was a beagle, but it turned out to be a beagle/jack russell terrier mix. And now they've become addicted to The Dog Whisperer because they're desperate to figure out how to handle him. I'll have to tell them about your highchair incident, it'll make them feel better because so far their dog hasn't yet eaten any pieces of furniture.

  17. OMG, HEART your dogs AND the mustachios from party city. They're a staple at my house. I miss having a dog. :( And, my little bro (my dog substitute) moved back to CA! What am I to do without pets?!?! Perhaps I'll buy a fish......ho hum.

  21. Cute dog costumes! :) My dogs chew everything in site too... but they haven't attempted the high chair yet. They prefer wood... blinds, moulding, chairs, baby gates... sigh! Oh well, I can't complain. They keep the floor clean when my son starts throwing his food! :) Hi from SITS!

  32. Such Superior Snaps! We've got kitty cats, and have some of the same problems. The youngest, who at 7 is still apparently in the "kitten" phase, has taken her claws to a few nice pieces of furniture. Both cats have eating contests, trying to down their food as fast as possible so the other one won't get any. And, of course, then we have to spend a little time cleaning up kitty barf. Eeeeeeeeewwwww...but no piddling contests in our neck o' the woods-yet.

  34. Love the pics from Cinco de Mayo... I'm done having kids too. (Love the two I have, but they are teens... not going back that way!) Thinking about a puppy, but I want something that will stay TINY. Still contemplating!
