I think the dog is off his good behavior streak. He's been getting in a lot of trouble lately. This morning he was busy shredding a cloth lawn chair. Yep. My husband and father-in-law were hanging out in them only yesterday. They neglected to put them in the garage. Big mistake. Beasty boy went out there and gnoshed on them for breakfast.
"Schultz!" I yelled when I saw the blue fabric all over the lawn.
He knew he was in trouble.
He spent a couple of hours in his crate . Then, after I thought he had repented, I let him out. I went about my business. Suddenly, I heard a crash.
"Schultz!" I ran downstairs. The telephone was on the ground. No, he didn't eat the phone, but he did eat a little duct tape man my son had made for my husband. It had been resting against the phone. The duct tape man's body had been completely dismembered. And he was missing a head. I don't know where that went, and I probably don't want to know.
What I do know, is that the beast is grounded for a very long time! Bad dog!
Would you leave me Schultz in your will?? Please?
ReplyDeleteSeriously? Are you crazy? LOL
DeleteI love the play on the breed's name: shredder.
ReplyDeleteMy cats shred things, but I love them anyway. :) I easily forgive my fur babies.
Yeah. We call him German Shredder and German Shedder. He does a lot of both.
DeleteIt really is like having another small child isn't it?
ReplyDeleteDefinitely!
Deletei don't envy you with the shredding, etc., but I know it would be nice having a dog around again.
ReplyDeleteThey certainly are entertaining!
DeleteHee, hee. Cute story! I do not have a dog, but can completely relate. :)

Cool! Thanks, Melissa! And thanks for stopping by. It's good to see you here!
DeleteLOL I'm sure you will see the head on the lawn tomorrow mixing brown in with the blue shreds..haha
ReplyDeleteYeah. And it'll smell pretty bad!
DeleteLOL!! Hilarious! And you named your dog Schultz--I've always liked that name for a German Shredder.
ReplyDeleteWe thought it was a perfect name, too!
DeleteDoes punishing dogs really work? Hmmm . . . maybe I could banish my kids to a crate when they go nuts.
ReplyDeleteProbably not. But at least it gets him out of the way for a while!
DeleteMy husband keeps talking about wanting a dog. That's not happening as long as we have the cat. Maybe I should share with him some of the Schultz stories? I still think he'll want a dog. : ) Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteHa! One of my friends shared my stories with her kids. "See," she said. "This is why we're not getting a dog!"
