more destructive dogs…

Tuesday, Jan 2. 2007  –  Category: Pets

sigh. we called in professional help.

char-siu is an eff-ing evil genius. not only that, he’s an alcoholic too.

bet you’ve never heard a dog described as a brilliant alcoholic before, but he is………………. last week he managed to break into the fridge twice. getting into a double-door fridge is no mean feat… but char-siu did it AFTER we started putting a child-lock on.

yes. you read that right. my beagle broke into a double-door refridgerator with a child-lock on it.

amazing. if only he could use his evil genius for better things…. like washing the dishes, or doing the laundry. heck, make me some dinner even.

… anyway, i think i figured out how to set the lock such that he couldn’t leverage it and open it. it foiled him the past 4 days anyway…. so today he moved onto other things.

i came home today to find a chair pulled out next to the liquor bar, my bottle of 12 year Glenlivet lying on the floor… half drunk.

my dog drinks single-malt scotch.

amazing. not only that, he drank half the friggin’ bottle…. which explains his erratic behaviour (and pained yelping when i came home).

anyway, we’ve had two training sessions with Matt, and it’s looking good so far. char-siu is starting to respect us a little more, and i think his confidence is slowly increasing. once we get him focused and more self-confident, i’m hopeful his separation anxiety will ease up.

but in the meantime, i put all the good liquor away.

  1. Washing His Car Says:

    Better Than a Car Wash

    How much do you spend at the car wash each year? Here in the Northeast where road salt eats car finishes for breakfast, it’s not unusual to spend $50 or more a month protecting your car from damage. Why throw money down the drain at the local car wash…
