Thread: Does your dogs do anything that annoys you?

  1. #1

    Does your dogs do anything that annoys you?

    Charlie always seems to bark soon after I get my daughter to her nap lol.

    Ok so he's not barking cus she's napping. But still. lol
    eta.. She ends up waking up from it.

    I'm a light sleeper. So when he wakes up, I wake up. I know he's awake cus I hear him yawning. It's usually 8am on the dot every time lol. Sine I got him in crate at night, he no longer jumps on me and barks to play. He now waits patiently in crate till I get up Good boy!! So now I can sleep till 9.

    He HAS to eat in same room as us. If I leave the room, he stops eating and follows. It's hard to get him to eat when he is supposed to.

    The worst thing Finn does is when he stretches, he pushes his scratchy paw pads or his nails into your side or face or legs or arms or whatever gets in the way of his long, strong legs. If he's just laying there, and, you go to scratch his side, he'll fling his nearly 90 pound frame around so that you can scratch wherever it is that he feels needs it. That usually means paws hit you in the face or his head busts into yours or something else painful. He isn't trying to hurt, but, he's just so happy all the time. About everything. I still love him, though, even though I have bruises from head to toe, from his love bumps and love scratches.

    Freckles barks a lot, and, I'm trying to break her of it, at least some. She's at least not barking for treats when I put her into a sit. So, that's a start!

    Dudley is annoying because he never learns. He's apparently gotten his arse kicked all up and down the gulf coast by several large dogs within David's family and he just never stops trying to mount bigger male dogs. Finn hasn't really shown any aggressiveness, yet, but, I keep my eyes on them, because they get rough sometimes. But, even if Finn did beat him up, David says it won't stop Dudley from trying again. Nerd.

    Other than those things, and, very small other ones, the three of them are joys to be around. All of them are very sweet in their own ways.

    Nanook doesn't & never has done anything that bothers me. Sure he has some "old man glitches" now but they don't really bother me.

    Raustyk does 2 things that bother me:
    -She barks a lot, at neighbors 5 doors down and things I can not hear nor see
    -She doesn't know she weighs almost 100lbs & Nanook is fragile

    Kaige, he's the same as Nanook, doesn't do anything that bothers me.

    Of course sometimes, only for a short couple seconds Nanook & Kaige will get on my nerves when they bark at each other while playing sometimes but not enough to really bother me. All I have to do is think about the worse things in life & the tiny bit of annoyance that I do have goes right away.
    Soar high & free my sweet fur angels. I love you Nanook & Raustyk... forever & ever.

    I guess i'm lucky...my dog will sleep in my room until sometimes 12:00pm! Well that's on weekends. He does the eating thing too...I have to sneak away so he doesn't follow me because I try to get him to continue eating but as soon as he sees me leaving he follows. The only other thing he does that annoys me is just that I can't let him off the leash because he would not listen to me. But besides that he is a good dog.

    Oh my gosh. Pixie.

    Whenever I'm sleeping on the couch, she'll either put her big wet nose RIGHT in my ear, or she'll bar as loud as she can to wake me up

    She's such a brat

    Gracie- other than her prey drive she's a great dog.

    Beanie- top 10 reasons Beanie annoys me:
    1. he YAPS!
    2. he's got a bad temper
    3. he's pushy
    4. he's in the way
    5. he's picky about what he eats
    6. he does everything on Beanie's terms
    7. he starts a lot of fights with rescues.
    8. he he has selective hearing
    9. he has to dominate EVERYONE
    10. he's protective of his toys


    i love Beanie to death, but he's not my favorite dog. i refer to him as "my mom's dog."
    Owned by two little pastries!


    REST IN PEACE GRACIE. NOT A DAY GOES BY THAT I DON'T MISS YOU.

    Founder is very pushy. He will knock other dogs out of the way to get to me. Firmly believes he is the only dog I should ever pet. We're working on that!

    Deuce jumps up, again we're working on it. That is one habit that drives me nuts!

    Sleet will only drink from one water bowl. If it's empty she will knock it around and make as much noise as possible until I fill it for her, particularly annoying at 3am!

    Ozzy barks incessantly whenever someone he doesn't know is around. Handy in that no one can sneak into our yard(Ozzy's pen is in the front), but annoying after a couple hours!

    Mac bites my butt when I'm walking through the yard. Sundin does that occasionally too, but Mac is a serial offender!

    Chum is very talkative. Generally doesn't bother me, but he sometimes carries on excessively. Gets the other dogs worked up and Chum ends up getting picked on. The other dogs just want him to shut up too sometimes!

    When I get annoyed with them, I try to remind myself that someday(frighteningly soon for some of them), I will miss their little quirks and habits.

    Molly-
    (1)barks to come in five seconds after you let her out. literally!
    (2)when you are at the table, she will come and bump your arm to either let her out or scratch her. Sometimes she does it when your drinking, and the drink will get all over you, or you'll start choking on it!
    (3)When she goes to sleep on our bed, and doesn't want to get off when you need to get the bed ready. It's hard to pull a 70lb sleeping, dog off the bed.


    Astra-
    (1)When she stretches on you. She'll put her front paws on your chest and her claws will scratch you.
    (2)She ALWAYS wants to go outside and never wants to come inside when you call her.
    (3)She HAS to sleep on some soft surface like a sofa or bed. She doesn't like to sleep on the tile.


    Prince-
    (1)He is such a baby! He'll yelp if you pick him up wrong. Sometimes he hurts himself(somehow), and he'll cry if you touch any part of his body. But when we take him to the vet, he is completely fine!
    (2)He sleeps on anything and everything that falls on the floor. If your blanket falls on the floor, he'll claim it as his new bed.
    (3)He barks at anyone who passes in front of the house. He also barks at my step-dad, for no reason. He's weird like that

    Visa follows me everywhere, and is always in the way. She barks alot when someone she doesn't know comes over. She isn't handler focused, she's obstacle focused, so she's very difficult to run in agility. She drools after she drinks water lol. She's a very rough player and often hurts other dogs by accident. At work, she will jump on the desk and knock everything off of it. If you try to correct her when she's in drive, she will SCREAM like you are killing her.
    I've been BOO'd!

    DO your dogs do anything...

    Shadow - She's so LAZY! She would stay on the couch in the basement all day if I let her! And she'll start barking for absolutley no reason (never moving her butt from the couch!), the other 4 will charge up the stairs barking frantically and she'll just sit on the couch and laugh

    Micki - He will bark at anything and everything, hes recently decided he has to mark EVERYTHING, this includes the corner of my bed, car tires, SHADOW, basketballs, plants...EVERYTHING.

    Mini - You can't get close to her without getting smothered with kisses, lol

    Kyra - If she wants to play and you aren't paying attention to her she'll grab your pant legs and you end up dragging her around the house.

    Jack - Hes too darn dominate and pushy with other dogs


    But you gotta love 'em

    Marta- She can be annoying sometimes when she is being stubborn and refuses to "hear" you, like when you are calling for her to come in, or walking her and she decides she doesn't want to go home she will plant her feet and it's hard to move her! She also steals food from children when they aren't looking.

    Adele- She drives me INSANE sometimes in the car. I have to put her in doggy seat belt to keep myself from getting in a car wreck. Back and forth back and forth back and forth she runs in the back seat. That, and she always gets a HUGE mouthful of water before she decides to come lick you all over.

    Vallis- He barks at everything, real or imagined, and he has no concept of how close he is to your ear. Also, he jumps over our baby gates and steals our cat's food.

    Whew! All that being said, I love my pups and wouldn't trade them for anything.
