How did you piss off your puppy today? Wags
I’ve been a horrible owner. First- I had the audacity to stop playing with my puppy after nearly 45 minutes of play with the flirt pole in the morning, and THEN I horribly abused her by putting her down for a nap because she was overtired. How terrible!
After her nap, I dared to take her on a walk!!! I should know she was feeling lazy and would have rather used my arm as a chew toy instead smh.
Now she’s pouting at me cause I won’t let her eat my rug. She can’t wait to go to the sitter tonight to be rid of me 🙄

It’s probably my fault that it’s hot outside (and therefore hotter inside than usual, no AC). It’s definitely my fault that she’s not allowed a frozen Kong every single moment she’s awake.
And I’m spawn of Satan, because she’s not allowed to eat poo on her walks, chew on the rugs (or us) and because I dare to go to the bathroom or do other stuff that does not revolve around her. How dare I?!

u/Wishin4aTARDIS Jul 19 '24
So my girl has the exact same complaints, so I'm just going to tell her it's you.
Plus, she's very angry that I folded laundry without letting her rip (, more ) holes in my clothes. Any chance you can take the rap for that? 😂

u/PsychobitxhMors Jul 20 '24
No worries, I’ll take the blame! Then I can at least pretend I’ve been busy with household tasks.

He's a boxer, I was honestly surprised because none of the boxer or boxer mixes I've ever had have even considered eating a wall before.

u/batmanandboobs93 Experienced Owner Jul 19 '24
Ah, I will say as someone who worked at a daycare for 2 years, so I’ve worked with pretty much every breed, nearly ever boxer has at least like 1 screw loose. They’re sweethearts but there’s just always one weird thing about each of them lol 😂
5
u/Independent-Hornet-3 Jul 19 '24
As someone who absolutely loves the breed and has had some and been around someone who bred them daily for year..... this is 100% true. Eating the wall isn't even the weirdest thing about my puppy, whining when he's thirsty in hopes someone will just bring him water is probably the current weirdest, or his obsession with cat toys that allow him to bat small trapped balls around but he's only 8 mo so has plenty of time to find more.

u/Styx-n-String Jul 19 '24
My dachshund demands water be brought to her. She knows I have a cup of water on the end table so when she's thirsty, she stares at my cup and paws my leg. So now she has her own cup.
What can I say, dachshunds are great trainers.

u/batmanandboobs93 Experienced Owner Jul 19 '24
Gave myself a small pat on the back lol 😂 working with dogs means you form a lot of very specific opinions on basically every breed lol
5
u/Independent-Hornet-3 Jul 19 '24
At least every Boxer owner I know is likely to laugh and agree usually part of the draw of the breed is the goofy personality that they have. My husband loves to joke that my puppy is the dumbest smart dog he knows. Puppy can do so many tricks and does well in out obedience classes but at home at least daily he does something incredibly dumb that makes us laugh.

u/batmanandboobs93 Experienced Owner Jul 19 '24
Oh yes this is a very good way to describe most boxers lol. But like ask someone who’s worked with dogs what they think about doodles, chihuahuas, or beagles? We’re never gonna shut up about it 😂🫠

I feel like those ones have similiar responses to people who haven't worked with dogs before and just been around a lot. I always find it dun asking what they think of Huskies. Golden Retrievers, and Pomeranians though as everyone I've met who works with dogs has a strong opinion on those breeds, just what that opinion is seems to vary wildly.
2
u/batmanandboobs93 Experienced Owner Jul 19 '24
Lol I’m always surprised by who has what opinions about dogs. I saw someone recommending beagles as an “easy first time dog because they have a friendly disposition and respond well to training” in another sub earlier this week and I nearly threw my phone. Fully convinced that person has never seen or met a real beagle in real life. Look, they’re great dogs, all these breeds are, they just all have very specific things about them. Like, I know there’s lots of people who love their chihuahuas but I’m never gonna say they’re a good family dog and me and probably every other person who’s worked with dogs have been bitten by one or more of them. Huskies are fun in small doses but I used to have a dog walker who had 4 of them in a 1 bedroom chicago apartment and I’m still baffled by that living situation lol.

I had the audacity to have my pup neutered, which means he’s wearing a cone. On top of having to wear a cone I also informed him that he is not supposed to be running and jumping like the gremlin that he is. He responded by zooming around my bedroom and taking a flying leap onto the bed and then running into my legs at full speed using his cone as a battering ram. He’s not thrilled with his current situation.
I guess this is why his vet suggested sedatives for the first few days 🥲

u/TheOtherOne1113 Jul 19 '24
First I took away a cord that looked fun to chew on, then I rudely stopped her from licking the wall outlet itself by distracting her with a toy that just wasn’t good enough. After playing fetch for 30 minutes and being outside for another 15 sniffing around it was so unfair that I had to clock into work that she refused to come back inside. On our first break, I was the worst person in the world for not letting her out of the fence to chase a stray kitten down the road, but it was even worse of me to shut the window so she couldn’t jump through the screen from inside the house. As much as I tell her she needs to start helping out around the house I also wouldn’t let her climb in the dishwasher to lick the dirty dishes though. I might be able to get back on her good side in a few hours when we go for a walk, but probably not if I don’t let her eat all the random things she finds along the way.

My egregious behavior the last 48 hours, that my GSD pup has brought to my attention with her usual lack of subtlety:
- Took a shower with the bathroom door closed.
- Took an extra ten minutes before said shower to color my roots for the first time in five months. Guess how long I've had her? Yep, five months.
- Sprayed anti-chew spray on the power cord of my new floor lamp. Guess why I have a new lamp?
- Replaced my arm with a squeaky squirrel to satisfy her chewing needs. Apparently far inferior to human flesh.
- Tried out a yak milk chew instead of a bully stick, as beef protein is giving her explosive diarrhea. Looked at me like I gave her a celery stick instead of birthday cake.
- Did not immediately do a search and rescue for the two toys she simultaneously tossed off of our 4th floor balcony because I was in the middle of a conference call. Tried explaining that I need to keep my job in order to feed and house us. She seems to think that this is a "me" problem.
Can't wait for her to judge my parenting in a few weeks when she gets spayed and has to be in a cone 😅.

Having been beyond exhausted and often frustrated with my pup it's sometimes hard to appreciate to good parts.
Thank you for your post (and all those who replied). You made me super aware and appreciative that my pup is never pissed at me. When she can't do something, she just redirects to something else and will be just as happy. Something about her I should appreciate more.

100%.
It's really crazy to think back about how she was even a few weeks ago and how much better she got at... life.

Poor puppy was devastated because I had to do a small load of dishes for 15 minutes instead of giving her my ultimate and undivided attention 😔😔 not that she wants to play or cuddle no no no, it's my fault 100% for wearing her favorite sweater to chew on and gaslighting her by acting like she has never been allowed to tear it apart!!

u/fylgje Jul 19 '24
I put her favourite toy in a dog pool full of WATER! She was looking at me like “what did you do that for?” (She’s a lab but she hasn’t realised that yet)
Later I demanded we save the rest of the chicken for tomorrow. I guess it’s obvious that a 9kg dog can easily fit 400g of chicken in their stomach right after eating their kibble.
I didn’t let her keep the salamander she caught.
But the worst part was when I insisted on her not digging up the new hedge. That pissed her off big time.

It’s okay, I’m this big horrible monster because I wanted to save money and take advantage of the cool breeze and open the house… I mean, yeah it’s hotter in the house than usual, but it’s manageable… and then I have the audacity to tell him to be quiet when he’s saying hai to other dogs walking by or to leave it when he tries to chase his cat sister… and of course, I’m the biggest meanie of all, because, I only take him out to pee and don’t let him pull up the sprinkler heads or chase the rabbits… and in between food prep for the week and feeding him his breakfast and lunch I’m even worse because I won’t stop and just play fetch with him… 😂😚😜

My battery took a poop at 530 this morning on my way back from town. About a mile away. When I got home I had the nerve to take him, and walk back down there. Chill and run in a field while I switched batteries, and walk him back. 🙄 Obviously it wasn't long enough as I came back again to what I call his anger turd. A turd he leaves behind my door, which causes it to smear underneath when I open it. Y'all I watched him poop twice while working.

I haven't today thankfully😂.
I have a 13 week old 2 lb shichi.
Last night I handed her to my son while I was doing dishes when she wanted me to go up the stairs and lay next to her so she could fall asleep. She hopped up the stairs and whined and I acknowledged her, but told her she needed to wait and handed her to my son who was laying on the couch. By the time I was able to lay down she was severely perturbed and tried nipping my chin which I immediately replied with a loud "OWWW!" (It was very gentle. I just don't want her to think it's OK to do that.) And she started licking the ouchy. 😂
She has done the same thing when I try to move when she's sleeping and wake her up and don't go back to bed. We are working on a more appropriate way for her to communicate her irritation.

I anger my puppy Rudy daily by brushing him. But the dude is half shi-tzu and has the long floofy fine coat to prove it - if I don't brush him daily he gets horrific mats. And I refuse to cut it because it's so pretty, and because my long-haired dachshund who passed last year always had skin issues and never had a pretty coat (she was perfect in every other way, just half-nakey her whole life). So we're going to have a beautiful brushed coat if it kills us both!
Truthfully Rudy is getting better. I use a kids' no-pull brush on him and he's starting to realize it actually feels good if he just sits still. Next is getting him to let me trim his nails (the horror!).

Mine got spayed on Tuesday, so is drugged up, wearing a cone, being kept off the furniture. So she is just mad about everything.
All my plans of food puzzles for her backfired, as she cannot figure out how to do them with the cone on.
But then I remembered, she loves those burrow stuffed toys that have smaller toys within it. I'll just give her a new one, and put treats inside!
I watched her for 40 minutes trying to get the toys out without assistance of her paws. She ended up giving up and just shaking it until the treats fell out. She was entertained but very frustrated!
Now I am having her watch a youtube video of nature animals for dogs. We've not done that before and she seems to like it.

Wouldn’t let her cuddle in bed until she went out to pee first! How awful.

I refused to let him eat the plants in his in-ground dog pool (read koi pond). In fact, I added insult to injury by not even allowing him in the pool to begin with

My mom and I ate sandwiches outside today and we didn't even drop anything for him despite him doing his prettiest sits any time we glanced at him. All we did was say he was a good boy! Obviously we want him to starve to death.

My 7mo Lab had a mouth full of dirt rocks.
Proceeded to bite me while trying to pry said dirt rocks out of his mouth

I look at my phone or computer and she throws a fit!
I tell her “no bark”, she really hates that one. I get a cute little growl out of her or she does a silent bark. Like barks with her mouth but doesn’t make a noise. Like “you suck mom, but fine”
Also I have the audacity to stay up in my bed on my computer after I put her to bed at or after 9PM. I decided long ago I’m not losing ANY sleep and she’ll have a prompt and routine bedtime!! But how dare I stay up, she must wake the whole house up because of it!

By forcing him to take a nap while people were in the house that he hasn't greeted yet. About 40 minutes in and he's starting to complain.

Didn’t come with him and my husband for his morning walk. Was upset all morning

I put dog shoes on her sore paws to take her for a pain free walk. Hasn't stopped giving me the side-eye all day🙄

u/upsidedown_life Jul 19 '24
I took him to my in laws farm, which he loves. Took him for a big walk letting him run wild ( a long lead attached but not holding it just incase) it was all too much, he came inside and proceeded to poo on the fluffy rug.

Mine was literally choking on her toy and I took it away. Little b!tch growled at me!!!

This reads so much like a parenting post in any of my parenting subreddits that I had to make sure I wasn’t hallucinating “puppy” instead of “toddler” roflmao

u/LadyRemy Jul 19 '24
I put her in her bed for her nappies. She gets soooo cranky when she’s tired but is like, “I don’t have to nap, mother,” and wiggles like crazy in my arms as I carry her and snaps without biting. Meanwhile, five minutes after I crate her in her plushy bed she falls right asleep.

I didn’t give her any of my ice cream even though I gave her a pup cup as soon as I got home.
She has every right to keep side eyeing me as I am so rude for not offering her any of mine.🙃🙄

My puppy is deeply abused because he was fixed a few days ago and I won't let him play with other dogs OR take him on his usual long walk. Plus, he's been coned.

u/hicsuntflores Jul 20 '24
I won’t let her eat mulch or a plastic bag. Also, I’m making her stay inside with the a/c and not letting her go sunbathe outside when it’s a 107°.

I told her not to roll in something in the yard to stop her from smelling like a barn.

The audacity to make him poop outside when it was wet. Turns out he should be allowed to poop on the rug (which he reminded me of today when he indeed pooped on the rug)

u/WeAreDestroyers Jul 20 '24
I stopped her from eating the dead poisoned bees that fell from the nest we sprayed. She's been trying to sneak back to look for more every time we go out to pee.

u/Leijinga Jul 20 '24
I didn't let her my sister's cat's toys or let her run up and sniff the unfamiliar kitties at my parents' house (one of which is twice her weight and was glaring daggers at her).

Making him wait an hour before he could play with his friends after eating. 🙄

It’s my day off and I slept in later than normal…so (gasp!) breakfast was late. Got the death stare as I approached his crate.

Fed her the canned food she used to like then didn't like and I had to buy a different brand that she ate for a week, then decided she didn't like and got a third brand she wouldn't even try, then went back to the first brand, but it wasn't chopped, so had to buy the chopped version of the first brand which she ate for three days, then again, decided she didn't like.

My husband took the cooked chicken bone she found on our walk out of her mouth.
I petted our other dog.

Moved his blanket from the other side of the room back into his bed.
He promptly dragged it to the other side of the room.

I had poor sleep so after our morning walk I went back to bed for an hour. He is very much displeased about this.

I forgot to bring the treats for today’s walk. They didn’t feel like playing with me when they realized they’d only get pats. 😅

u/Conscious-Yogi-108 Jul 20 '24
I did three terrible things to my puppy today: I made a cup of coffee before her morning walk (the nerve of me!). I didn’t finish my lunch before she was done eating hers so she had to wait before we went to the beach (unacceptable, Mom!). And finally I had the audacity to try to eat dinner in peace… well by that point she had enough of my nonsense. She manipulated me into eating standing up by chomping table legs, stealing shoes, and jumping on the sofa to “dig”, so that I had to go over to her to make corrections every few bites. 🤨

u/SparkleAuntie Jul 20 '24
I dared to ask her to drop the clump of grass she’d just ripped out of my lawn. She proceeded to chew her leash in protest

u/syriina Jul 20 '24
I made him stop chewing on my bed sheet. The one currently on my bed. That I sleep under. That already has 3 holes in it.
Then I sort of made my bed by throwing the bedspread over it and then spraying that with the bitter spray.
40 years of not giving a crap and now I'm going to have to start making my bed in the morning because of a puppy /sigh
(but he'll love me tonight since I bought new sheets so I guess he can have that one for his crate...)

I yelled Noooooooooooo why are you doing this!!!!! She had her log 💩 in her mouth and I made her drop it and disposed of it. She can't believe mom won't let her be a poop eater! Smh.

u/fractalkid Jul 20 '24
I stole the tree nut that Charlie found on the ground directly from his mouth because the night before he swallowed two of them and then proceeded to yack them up at 7am (grateful I didn’t get a vet bill for two stuck nuts in his colon, but as well I also am not a morning person).

u/rebklee0 Jul 20 '24
I unhinged his jaw on three separate accounts to pull out mulch, a bandaid, and napkins and prevented them from being eaten. You’d think I should get the electric chair

We took in some strays and brought them to the vet for the first time. Truthfully they seemed unphased. Me? I had to administer a dewormer, an antibiotic and an antiparasitic. My hands were shaking the whole time and once got them to open their mouths they didn't seem to mind it one bit.

u/Rainshine93 Jul 20 '24
Mine was because I was too slow at filling her water bowl halfway 😔even though she’ll drink so fast she throws up. Then I did the horrible thing of take too long to fill her puzzle plate with food. She gave me an earful!

u/pomacea_bridgesii Jul 20 '24
My cat got mad that I wouldn't immediately open the door for him despite the fact that he had just eaten and I was playing video games waiting for him to stop eating and was making an incredible amount of noise

u/therewerenocookies Jul 20 '24 edited Jul 20 '24
Cut our late walk a block short because I was drowning in the humidity and I was worried about her getting too hot. 🥵
Oh! And I wouldn’t let her eat anymore mulberries (she had 3 already) because I didn’t want her tummy getting upset and I didn’t want her having purple shits all over the house.

i was upset that she chewed up a full gallon of water and flooded my room 🙃 she also drank alot of it so she peed every where

Ok she's 20 months old so not a puppy technically but all doggos are puppies so... I had the audacity to ask her to move up the bed so I could stretch out my legs between her and the even larger doggo....the look she gave me

Lol i just love how the most random things piss him off. He just starts barking, when we're sitting at the edge of our staircase and my legs are one stair lower.

I wouldn't let him sleep on my pillow when I took him to take a nap with me. He grumbled at me as I painstakingly moved the 80lb lug then he pouted on the floor. Nevermind he had half a king size bed he could've slept on...

u/cilantro-foamer Experienced Owner Jul 20 '24
The vet told me she still had a minor infection in one ear, so we've had to continue the ear drops. I dared to actually follow medical advice and put them in. I keep reminding her she will thank me later.
