What is your dog telling you?


Okay I haven't been blogging enough lately, but I finally found some time so I am going to share a funny story with you all. Over the 4th of July I had not quite a whole week off. So my dog Preacher and I got to spend some quality time together. He had been behaving so well, he was getting to stay out of his crate while I was away. So after six days off I had to go back to work. I didn't think twice, of course Preacher should get to stay out of his crate while I'm working. For some of you I can see that your wheels have just begun to turn. Yes, you're right he decided to rebel against me being gone again. He just couldn't help himself! When my mom arrived to let him out to use the grass, it was just too late for... the Dog Whisperer! He shredded my book from one side of the apartment to the other. And who really knows how much he ate I never found the hard cover. Mom then gently called and left me a message at work that Preacher was now back in his crate after is tantrum with the book. Mom stopped by my work to brace me for what I was going to find when I got home after finishing a long day at work. She gently reminded me to take a deep breath before I entered the apartment. I took her advise and entered my apartment slowly. I began to laugh so hard as I saw my "dog whisperer" book shredded. What irony of all the books on my coffee table to grab he chose to destroy, decimate, annihilate, the book on how to train him. It got even funnier as I began the search for the remains of my once very helpful book. I found bits and pieces from my kitchen to my bed. Needless to say he had a very good time being rebellious at my expense. So I came to the conclusion that he wasn't too happy about the idea of me going back to work and leaving him alone, as well as, that we need to continue his obedience training. I hope you all enjoyed this story as much as I did telling it! I leave you with the question in my heading, what is your dog trying to tell you?

He use to be so cute and now he is so...
