Captain is alot older now, and he says he never did anything bad!!!
BUT, when he was younger, he had a sock fettish. He would go into the walk in wardrobe, help himself to socks in the drawer (which was open!), and waltz away with them. Not to bad, I hear you say, until one night I woke up, hearing him trying to be sick in the backyard.
Went out to see if he was OK, and found he had thrown up a sock!!!.
I checked against all other socks in the drawer and washing, and found the matching sock. So we thought this was the end of it, as he was bounding around like a lunatic.
I went to work, and came home early. Went outside, and almost stepped in (what I thought) a verrrryyyyy loonnnnnngggg poo - which was ANOTHER sock. It had gone RIGHT THROUGH him ..... I could not believe it!!
We rushed him to the vet, took X-rays, and the Vet (whilst very serious, but with a huge grin on his face) advised that all was OK and there were no more socks to be found inside my boy!!
To this day, I never found the matching sock to the "poo" sock!
He also LOVES soft toys ...... which included my fluffy bear slippers :-(
Ruby, well, what hasn't she done - she chewed the mudflaps on my car and my husbands car, chewed the tow hitch cable, the TV aerial wire that runs along the wall and into the house, the curtain pulleys, took paint out of the garage and made holes in the tin so we had paint all over the backyard, ate my husbands motorbike gloves - so he has 2 fingers on one glove, and 4 on the other! ..... and more recently she chewed the seatbelts in my Pajero!!! The dogs sit in the very rear part of the car - like a stationwagon - and she obviously thought I didn't really need them because "only dogs" sit here, and they don't need the seatbelts!
Love them, in spite of themselves
M!
