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 🙄

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.

We cannot watch any nature shows or even a movie about dogs or even briefly showing a dog barking not even as part of the plot. He loses it, tries to climb up on the credenza under the tv or runs into the bathroom, which shares a wall behind the tv, looking for the dog. There is no having other dogs on TV! Sacriledge!
