…and the other one on a banana peel! You guessed it! It’s time for another edition of My Dog Ate What?! It’s been a couple of weeks and the StinkDogs thought the blog was getting a little too dry, so they “dug up” some post ideas for me!
The other day I came home from work hot, tired, and generally cranky. I admit that most days I don’t venture into the back yard much. It’s too hot and sticky for lounging around outside right now, and when we go for walks we use the front door. These days I enter the back yard mostly for poop pick up and watering plants (infrequently). This is what I see when I look out my back door:
Nothing unusual, right? Until this day. I wandered around the bamboo to have a look at some of my plants and look what I found:
Yep, that would be a Hazel-sized hole in my planter bed. If you look closely you will see that she came thisclose to destroying my irrigation system. In which case, this post may have had a different ending. I had my suspicions as to the guilty party, but when asked Hazel gladly copped to the destruction.
Once again, SlobberDog refused to be outdone. When I came into the house after filling in Hazel’s grave, I found him in my bathroom closet eating a bar of honey almond soap. Unfortunately for you, dear readers, there was nothing left to photograph. Just a giant SlobberDog with a guilty look and a gob full of slimy bubbles.
Why do they insist on ganging up on me? And why do I never learn DON’T TRUST the StinkDogs…..Ever!
I suspect some dog just wanted to see how things work, right? As for the soap. Are honey and almonds food?
Slobbers,

Mango, I knew you’d understand just what happened! You are wise, and a deep thinker.
Nothin’ nicer on a hot day than a big ol’ body-sized hole. We have one we share… Soap?? He knew you’d want to “clean up” after work. How does a slobbery shower sound?!?

Rottrover, you have a point as well. Why did I never think about Grady’s helpfulness? All I needed to do was stand next to him for a moment and he was like a soap dispenser. I need to start looking at the glass half full a bit more!
im so glad not to have a digger, just sayin

hahaha yourself, Jenn! Not funny! But at least I don’t have to dig holes for the bushes I’m about to plant!
But she looked so sappily cute. Keeps your life exciting- right?

Ha ha, Lisa! Well, the tiny bits of soap wrapper gave it away! I was so happy yesterday because I actually found one of my missing bars of soap – this one was sandalwood and he had hidden it for later consumption. I thought he’d eaten that one too, wrapper and all. So how exactly does a dog eat an entire bar of soap and not even get the runs? :/
It amazes me what dogs will eat. Once Delilah ate 3/4 pounds of butter wrappers and all! I only left the kitchen for two minute!!
