Canine Catastrophies

By popular demand, I am back with a short on the day in the life of a dog. My dog.

No malice was intended, I am sure.

It's just that she was bored. Really, really bored.

She discovered how to pull open the wire drawers in the microwave stand and ate three raw potatoes, and half a loaf of bread. (It was even a brand new loaf I had bought the night before, in blissful expectation of toast - if I ever figured out how to wake up in time)

Anyway, the funniest part is that she somehow managed to get out whole slices, and she left the butt-end!!!

Then she found and gnawed on my headset to the computer, so I can't Skype until I find a replacement :(

THEN she found the remnants of the box of Kleenex (specially imported Kleenex) that I rescued from total annihilation a few days ago, and proceeded to shred both the contents and the container to ensure it would not EVER come back to life again. It looked like a confetti ticker-tape parade had happened in my bedroom.

And THEN, she peed in the house while I was entertaining dinner guests. I guess it's time I break out the newspaper and hit myself over the head.

The worst part is that last week she was a complete ANGEL!!!! Ha - she fooled me!!! She wants a sister, I think.

Ah yes, I have lulled her into complacency . . . she is mine! (insert evil laugh here) Good to hear your "voice." I miss you. Kathy:)

There are three adorable sisters here, waiting for you to adopt them as siblings for your bored dog. I'll even pay you to take them.
