| twinkles squidgy poo episode!! I took Twinkle to play with my nephews at the weekend, my sister in law is really houseproud and she had just finished telling me that she had scrubbed her living room carpet by hand as her carpet cleaner wasnt doing a good enough job. NEXT THING......Twinkle was pooing on the carpet , and not even a nice poo but a squidgy one!! Well I was signalling my husband to stop her and clean it up - and he went into fits of laughter - and yelled "YES - shes done the poo - good dog!" Then he explained that when he lived at his brothers, she had driven him nuts with her cleaning, and he had wanted it to happen so much to teach her a lesson!! Embarrassing!! |

| Good job, Twinkle!!! I have a relative that's the same way ..... haven't been to her house in years .... Toto wouldn't be allowed in her house! I don't like people who don't like animals .... I figure there is something wrong with them!

| No, not everyone likes dog pee and or poop on their floors especially carpet. It's probably best if we respect their home and don't bring our dogs there. If you want a visit from nieces and nephews how about having it at your home? That way if acccidents happen no one is upset! |

| I know I shouldn't laugh but The first time my boyfriend came round to my aunties house (very house proud) he walked dog poo all up her cream carpet on the stairs lol. It was funny because she has 4 kids and the carpet was still spotless but he was there 5 minutes and ruined it lol

| WinnisMom - I agree with you. I don't think it's funny either. It's bad enough that our little "darlings" have accidents in their own homes, but at another person's house --- not for me. I go to every extreme to keep my pups from ever making a mess on anyone else's carpet. It wouldn't matter to me if it were my mother, a sister, a friend, a neighbor or whatever. And -- "yes" -- some people are real clean - but these are the people I especially don't want my dogs to cause any problems. How can it be "funny" if our pup damages another person's carpet...... ???

That ridiculous. I believe a dog is a dog and a person is a person. I am 24 and a PROUD CLEAN FREAK, I clean every day no matter what, and I am house proud. I own a 300,000 dollar home and I want it to stay nice. I don't allow anyone to bring there animals to my house. I have a yorkie and a great dane but they are both obedience trained, potty trained and bathed every week. I had freinds who would bring there dog to my old house with out asking and it made us very upset we had a very young crawling child that it would lick to death, jump on and it shedded like no other, we made them put it outside so then it would jump on our screens and put holes in it, finally my hubby got pi**ed and told them to leave. Finally we had to be very rude because they tryed to bring it a few more time. Then last year we had a hurricane and we invited them to stay at our home, with us and my parents, we all have dogs I pinned mine up and my parenst pinned there three poodles up. But these particular friends thought there dog should be allowed out at first I told my hubby to deal with it, the dog was jumping and getting on my furniture and putting hair everywhere. I was so mad I told them he had to pinned or he had to be outside, they got so mad they left in the middle of a hurricane. I don't ever go to there house because they have two dogs now that jump and lick like crazy and the hair thats all over there house is so GROSS, I ca'nt belive they let there kid play on that, I don't take my babies there because I feel its dirty. The thing is not all people liek dogs or animals theres nothing wrong with that. I love MY dogs but noone elses at least at my home. I am sick of people thinking we should accomidate there pets, let them coem into stores and our homes, it NOT a child its a DOG! Get a grip I think people who won't go to a store or a friends home because they can't take there PET are CRAZY!! | |

| People don't get Yorkies as "Dogs" I know this is a bit off the subject of the original thread, but I had to respond to the above comments.I have had dogs and animals all of my life, and I am 36 now..I have owned at least 20 or 30 dogs by now, and though each one was very special to me, and I probably was a bit more mothering to them than some, I can honestly say Moe, who is my first Yorkie, but not the first I have ever known...is not JUST A DOG.....yorkies along with other toy breed dogs are in a special class of thier own, closer to little people a part of the family in a way , even though dearly loved a bigger dog could never be. I think there is nothing wrong with being house proud, and there is nothing wrong with wanting to keep nice things nice, but life happens, messes are made, and we clean up and go on.To say an accident caused by a potty training puppy is appalling is ridiculous!! Baby people make accidents, as do baby doggies......and if they brought the puppy, I am sure the house owner knew it was coming.I have recently had the loss of a dear pet, and I will tell you this, the biggest shock to me is how my husband reacted, he had complained for 12months about the straw and hay getting all over the place, so finally I moved the guinea pig hutch to another location, and the poor lil guy died in days, due to cold.....my husband was devastated, and said it put it all into perspective..he wasn't just a guinea pig, he was a life, a little spirit in a furry body, and to have been shoved away into a place it was "ok to have mess" was wrong.....we were responsible for him as we took him on....and it was up to us to provide it....if you choose a tidy house over a life and the spirit in that life...you will certainly break the spirit and it will die, then it will become just a dog, just a rabbit, or just a bird.....Twinkle is a precious spirit in a little body, learning what she has to as we all did .....I wouldn't live in a 300,000$ house if you paid me, life isn't about that..it's about who you are and what your like to the spirits you encounter while on this planet. Sorry Twinkles mom had to say this.the above post upset me. |

| Can I just make a comment about my thread - I was surprised by her doing her potty on the carpet, and I was probably at fault for not bringing a pad, but my post was meant to show how my husband is a total nutter! My sis in law asked me to bring my dog so the boys could play with her, she was not angry about it, I cleaned it up. I do however consider my dog to be part of my family, and I should have mentioned that my nephew has also puked on my cream carpet 2 days after it was fitted, I would never think of banning him from my home, or over-reacting. My house is worth 225000, which I believe is about $400000, due to my hard work, but i would rather see people feel comfortable in my home than be put off visiting for the sake of a bit of hair! I think perhaps you thought I had made Twinkle poo on the carpet on purpose, which I couldnt and wouldnt do! |

| "I had a yorkie in the past that would not poty train in our old house and when my first daughter was born we choose to get rid of him because we wanted her in a totally clean enviorment." This is horrifying to me, I'm sorry, but it really is. If your dog was not potty trained, it was because you didn't potty train him. I'm not a crazy lady who believes you shouldn't go anywhere without your animal...I realize there have to be rules and that following the rules is important. BUT, when you buy a dog, you make a promise. You are saying to that animal: "I love you, you are mine, I will protect you and keep you for always and ever no matter what because your spirit and well being are in my hands." - That is the promise you make when you bring an animal into your home. You can't just get rid of an animal...dogs aren't disposalble, you can't throw them away when they no longer "fit your lifestyle". When you get an animal, make sure you're ready, because it is for life. Last edited by Natsky; 05-03-2006 at 07:30 AM. |

| LOL see what ya started twinkle sweety LOL I am the proud owner of 11pets, we live in a house that is clean as well. We aren't sterile to the letter as the human body does need exposure to a certain degree of the natural environment to keep the immune system naturally strong, that is without pills and vitamin suppliment.Pets are proven to improve your health , esspecially when included as a close part of the family, they lower stress levels in many patients durring hospital and nursing home visits.I have raised 2 girls they are three years apart in age.....they were never sick a day in thier life, save the occasional flu or cold going around school.I can't see how a person can say they love thier pet in one breath, yet say they got rid of thier pet in another breath due to something they the owner didn't do! My LiL Moe is deffinately a problem trainer, but I also know there is some reason why he is, and as I love him and wouldn't just throw him aside like some failed husband, I choose to live with his mess and mistakes until we as a team figure out what works for him.You don't Make a pet do anything, they do things for you because they want to please you, and if they mess up, we have to figure out why and work with it.My mother used to get us a puppy for christmas, it would get bigger, not act how she thought it should..and suddenly the puppy magically "ran away from home." Then another some time later, same story...he "ran away from home" ...the way you treat your animals will have a direct bearing on how your little girls feel about animals, and close bonds with beings other than mom and dad. I may have just been small, but I shall never forget the heartbreak of losing my puppy to the "magical ran away syndrome" If you want a clean house, don't have pets or children, as children are messy too...and it's a natural thing for them to be, and children break things, and make accidents too....some people dont allow children in thier home, I find that appalling as well.The bottom line is everyone has a different oppinion, were all entitled to it, and that is how the world works , different strokes for different folks. |
