A Dixie Nawtee Dawg story

[Dixieland Dancer]

Just when I think my little princess is the best dog in the whole world, she has to go and make me so mad at her. :mad:

Last night I took Dusty to conformation class to get ready for the upcoming dog show. Since I was at work all day and my husband and son have Boy Scouts on Monday nights, I felt bad that Dixie would be left at home all alone in the evening. I didn't feel like lugging my wire crate along since it is heavy and we were only going to be there about one hour. I called my girlfriend and asked if I could borrow her soft sided crate to put Dixie in while I worked Dusty. She said ok.

Before class started I put Dixie in the crate. It has a mesh like front that zippers close. After about 15 minutes of working Dusty and Dixie being in the crate, she threw a temper tantrum. She clawed at the mesh and actually sliced a hole right down the front of it! :mad: She escaped and ran over to me as if to say "OK mom, it's my turn NOW". :confused:

I was so embarrassed because I have helped many of these people in this class in their obedience work. And here comes my dog who has two obedience titles to her name, acting like a spoiled child and disrupting the whole class. Of course everyone thought it was cute how much she wanted her mommy, except me. :(

The kicker of this story is that on the way home I called my husband and told him what had happened. His response "Good! You always tell everyone not to bring their dogs that are not being worked to class because it can hinder training. Next time heed your own advice!" Slap in the face. :eek:

I will be buying my friend a new soft sided crate when we go to Cleveland. Thank you very much Miss Nawtee Dawg Dixie. :rolleyes: Perhaps the AKC should create a new obedience title called X-CDX (no longer a companion dog excellent!).

You all know though that I wasn't mad at her long. All she had to do when we got home was give me those Dixie Dawg eyes and all was forgiven. She has her mommy wrapped around her paws! ;)

Could you be mad at these eyes for long???

*Grins* I am sure you weren't mad at sweet Dixie for long :D
It is bad what she did but she only loves you so much Candy.. And the sad thing is i could Very much see Presley doing something like that... I can't even have a shower or go to the washroom and close the door behind me because she will roll around in the hallway balling LOL Gotta love em :D

Isn't that always the way? They behave most of the time, except when you REALLY want them to!!

Lori, a trainer here in town has 5 dogs-3 goldens. She uses her goldens for demos and gets so frustrated when these obdience champ, master hunters are jumping on people and not listening. While I know the frustation it is sometimes a relief to see even a trainer's dog isn't perfect!

[K9karen]

Hey Sandra! Inquiring minds what to know..what did Star*Shine do at the vet? Are you SURE it was "OUR" girl???

Aww, come on, Sandra, share......
Killian and Shiloh want to know....
Inquiring minds want to know........

[Logan]

I want to know too!!! Seems like Cody is usually the quiet one.......expect any trouble, especially the embarassing kind, to come from Starshine!!!! So fess up, girlie!! We want to know!!! :D Might make my bad Honey feel better to know there is another troublemaker out there!!!! :D

[DoggiesAreTheBest]

I too am curious! Come on Sandra! Tell!

[Logan]

Come on, Sandra. Don't forget to tell your story!!! :D

C'mon Sandra, inquiring minds want to know! ;)

[Sudilar]

.....Come on, Sandra.......you told Logan the story...........you like her best..(pouting).........hehehehe, pretty please??????


(whispering.....ok, guys, anymore ideas on how to convince her to tell us the story......it must be really good!!)

P.S. I borrowed the top lines from my kids. Sometimes it worked!;)

[Logan]

LOL!!!! Sandra, I think you had better tell that story, and quickly!!! They think you're picking favorites!!!! :D

[Sudilar]

Killi to Aunt Sandra,

Ohhhhh, I'm feeling sooooooo sick today.........I think I need something to make me feel better.............Oh, a nice embarrassing story would probably make me feel better.........Ohhhhh, I'm so illlllllllllll..............................

Love, Killi

hehehehehe (is it working yet????)

[Logan]

I am going to interject a little something here...........Sandra had a rough afternoon, yesterday, which was related to a rescue effort she was making. It may account for her absence this morning. I made sure to tell her on the phone, yesterday, that we were waiting to hear the story. She asked me if I wanted to wait to see it in writing, but I said no!! I wanted to hear it from her, and it WAS hilarious (more funny than embarrassing in my opinion). Hehehe!!!

We might have to start swamping her with emails and Private messages, but I'll bet she can write out that hilarious story in a way that will have all of us chuckling!!! And it might brighten her spirits too!

Logan

[Sudilar]

Oh, I'm so sorry Sandra had a bad experience with the rescue yesterday. Can she also share that story? I know how heartbreaking rescue can be. I already can relate a sad story and I've only just begun:
One of the dogs picked up out of animal control on Monday had a bloody paw. Seems that it is cancer and at the very least the paw has to be amputated (maybe the whole leg). I don't know how it is going to end because I am not going to ask. :(

Sandra, share with us, we will help you through the happy and the sad times. I know I will be calling on all of you to help me!

[tatsxxx11]

I can't deny my Killi!!:) Check in this evening! Of course now with all this buildup you're all probably going to be disappointed!!:D

[Sudilar]

WOOHOO!!!!!! Killi says thank you!!!!!! Did I ever mention to you that he is a very nosy dog??? Hehehehe! We will be waiting with baited breath!!!!

(shyly) Thank you, Aunt Sandra! We love you!!
Killi

[Logan]

No way will anyone be disappointed!!! Not if you tell it the way you told me yesterday!!! :D :D :D Of course, these folks need a mental picture of our little, tiny Sandra, with two big dogs before they even hear this story!!!! :)
