AHHH SMELL THE URINE…
Meezergirl posted a cool video… that reminded me of pets and PAYBACK…
When I was pregnant with Cooper, we were dog sitting for my Pop, something we do upon occasion. My Pop is an avid bird hunter and his tried and true pal is George a German Shorthair by breed, a large child by nature… We had Max a jack russell terrier, a very small dog, the two of them were the Laurel and Hardy of the dog kingdom, BIG and little following each other around the yard and through the house.
On this particular occasion I was trying to get food ready for my family and ship them out the door to church and I was to head off to work at the fabric store. Normally Max would follow me around the house here and there, and that day was no different, except, Max’s amigo was the size of a small tractor. As they followed me around the kitchen I would often be pushing George’s head off the counter hoping his drool didn’t hit the french toast on the way by. Several times I sent them to the corner where you could practically see the cogs of their doggie brains plotting for contraband. Finally sick of dealing with the frustration I sent the pair of pooches to the porch and shut the door.
After that things were fine! Family was dressed and out the door, I had waddled to the porch and retrieved my shoes letting the dogs in to clean the floor of crumbs and syrup drips. As I sat in the chair to put my shoes on, quite proud of the fact that I could still do that myself, I noticed one of my shoes was… wet…
Now my brain was screaming… DON’T SNIFF THE SHOE! ! !
But it was also still processing the wet… hmmm why is it wet?
So brilliant, blonde, pregnant woman that I was I sniffed my wet sneaker…
The shoe hit the floor and the gagging and stumbling for the bathroom commenced… The damn dogs had peed in MY SHOE!!!
Not all over the floor.
Not on the other shoes…
My shoe!
Then after I had smelled it and was loosing my so recently eaten breakfast they sat in the hallway watching my pregnant self hurl it back up with the smug satisfaction of having taught me a lesson.
I did learn something valuable that day. If your shoe is wet, don’t smell it, especially if your pregnant.
Oh… and BIG dogs can have really good aim.
The Comedy duo of Max and George…

The Laurel and Hardy of the dog kingdom…haha, hilarious!
LOL….gotta watch out for those smart dogs.
oh no!!!
have a great day sweetheart!!
I can see that he did get you back -at least they can be washed-my sister’s dog is a girl and not into peeing on shoes I hope.
Dang Ang, I don’t think I’d have the guts to smell my shoes even if they weren’t wet!!!!! have a great weekend………
My dad had a German shorthair… He peed on me… Probably because dad was paying more attention to me at the time than him…
Ah my fondest childhood memories, Thanks for bringing them up!
My wife smells things like that all the time. In general, If you don’t know what it is don’t smell it.
RYC’s and the ‘mini’, ty and I’m glad the questionnaire answers amused you
. Learned that ‘man cannot live by computer alone’ philosophy a long time ago but to be fair, escaping into chat made my life semi-bearable about 4 or 5 years ago and to this day I’ve got laughter lines around my eyes from the crazy people and their insane takes on life that I encountered along the way. Guess I’ve just withdrawn from all that over the last 3 years or so, to the point where I simply cannot be arsed with it any more. You’re right, changes are on the horizon…
LOL! I have the big dog small dog syndrome here. Buddy will fallow the girls out back and when they go he goes on top of them! Not funny. I have to bring them in for a bath! Have a good weekend girl!
Yuck!
I posted a pic of my dog, at your request!
Oh wow…sorry, but that was hilarious, hehe.
ryc:
IKEA rules. I always bought there while living in Europe. So glad they are now in the States, and only 20 min from my home, hehe.
Love eating at their restaurant. The desserts rule.
Have an awesome day, sweetie.
Hugs,

Oh believe me, I know.
Worse is knowing betrayal that you justify as little…and then when it’s discovered, you realize that no matter how small, any betrayal is huge.
I’m a horrible person now.
LOL…got my own comedy duo…no peed on shoes…yet…
oh my gosh!!! What an experience! LOL Have a wonderful weekend
Mine is going to be spent cooking since we are having our Thanksgiving Dinner Sunday 
big huggs 
Yea, I’m sure you’re right.
I’m just kicking myself for being so stupid.
I suppose we all do, at some point,
and at least I’ve been forgiven.
Great story! I loved the “DON’T SNIFF THE SHOE!” part! I don’t know why we MUST do things like that. Anyway, thanks for sharing. You may go to the beach any time with MLB and me! Peace
I’m a sniffer too- part of living with dogs you’d think we know better.
you crack me up! I would be sick too.
