After the seminar with Chris Fraize this weekend, my husband finally agreed to start training Petey and crating him. (This has been an intense year long battle BTW)
So, Monday morning comes along and I put Petey out in the back yard. (We didn't hear the part about putting a leash on the dog the moment they come out of the crate - our bad.)
Time to come in, I tell him sit at the slider, open the door, walk through, then call him through, then tell him sit again at the door from the porch to the kitchen, open the door, walk through, then call him though again. He goes right to the couch, jumps up and lies down. BIG NO-NO!
I tell him OFF and he gives me that look. I tell him OFF again, grab his collar and pull him off the couch.
He looks RIGHT AT ME, goes over to my black mBT sandals that I had set out to put on (the ones that cost $230.00 per pair) and PEES ON THEM!!
I don't need to tell you how PO'ed I was at that moment. Knowing I had really screwed up, I just put Petey in his crate, cleaned the sandals and figured I'd call Chris later.
I have never wanted to make a hat and mittens out of a dog so badly as I did at that moment.
