So Issy is a naughty naughty puppy!
 

Ok, so the grey hair by my left temple? Yeah... that's the one I got when Issy chewed up my Christian Louboutin shoes. My bad. I should have put them up. I *think* they can be fixed, but....

And the grey hair growing off the top of my head towards the back? Yep. I know about that one. I got that when she chewed on my pantry door. I'll be sanding and painting that this weekend.

The 3 grey hairs that all came in at the same time along the nape of my neck to the right? I know about them. She did GREAT for a week and then the past 2 nights she pee'd in my bed. I woke up at 5:30 this morning to her whizzing on my foot. Doesn't she know it's SUNDAY???? Even God rested on the 7th day! I think the only think that's ever made me move faster is when my son was throwing up in the middle of the night. (They should create an alarm clock with that sound)

However, the cluster coming in just above my forehead is from her untraining Gabby. Now BOTH dogs are peeing in the house! I think we're going to hold off on new carpet.

The sad thing is, I KNOW what I have to do. Confinement, start over, restrict them to the ex pen, schedule, schedule schedule, etc. However, DH doesn't get it. He feels sorry for them and lets them out unsupervised. Wait... I'm on my hands and knees scrubbing urine out of my carpet and he feels sorry for THEM? This is so not fair!

I have to figure out how to train DH. Is there's a .pdf for that somewhere?

I just needed to scream at something that doesn't have to adoring look in their eyes.

I love your posts. Did I miss the one where you decided to name her Issy? You realize now that she is named you can't return her right?;)

As far as your hubby maybe stick his nose in the pee next time he might get it then LOL. Ok maybe a little harsh?

I'm not the one that named her. Hubby took her over to meet my Monster-in-law a few days ago and she did.

So now I have a Gabriella and Isabella. Say that five times fast!

I'm not wild about it because Isabella is a common yorkie name, but whatever. I have to call her something. She still comes happily to "No-No!".

Gah, frustrating:eek:!!! Yep, you're going to have to start over again, but how to get your hubby to cooperate? Maybe if you make HIM clean up the accidents, he'll get it:rolleyes: MEN:mad:!!!

Good luck.:)

He's a guy Luna. I don't think he knows how.
DH is really good at getting out of household chores. I asked him to do laundry once. He used dish soap and threw $3000 of my dry clean only clothes in the washer. That was the last time he was allowed to do laundry.

Gina, I love your wit and I am going through the same thing with my dogs and Dh,,

LoL that accidentially on purpose.... I used to do hubby's laundry, until I got tired of him saying to me, here is How I like my shirts ironed!. Okay, sounds like a plan to me; there is only one way your shirts will turn out the way you like; iron them yourself, and while you are at, better wash your own clothes. I got him his own laundry basket and set up the iron and ironing board in his dressing room. LOL I can move at the speed of lightning for a good cause:rolleyes:

Maybe have a locking play pen that only you have the key to? :D

OMG! your shoes!! I can see a migraine coming on. lolol Sometimes they are such naughty little things. Sounds like you do have to start over again with the training. Wonder where WE go wrong? Good luck and remember the pee is coming from a little dog not a Great Dane.

EXCUSE ME??!!?? :eek: $3000 worth of dry-clean only clothes?!!!???!!! Goodness me! x

I think they all think their names are No-No.:D

I love your posts Gina!! Good Lord, first the swamp cooler now this. Btw did you ever get that thing working? Hmmm training DH...I have the same prob here where fiance feels sorry for pups...when you figure that one out let us know,

Yes, I love your posts too. Your humor is a wonderful pick me up. I also think you have a kind heart.

mmm. No I didn't get it all put back together yet. I have all the parts but it's been raining and somewhat cool. Until hell feels like it's air conditioned (ie: the weather reaches "burn your skin off temps") there's no incentive to get back on the roof. I don't have a whole lot of skin left.

I think the worst part about all this is the fact that I'm an award winning artist at hiding money and concealing what things actually cost. I've got this down to a science. When DH came home and I was in tears over my Louboutins, he couldn't understand it. "They're JUST shoes" he says. At that point I had to confess, "No. No, they're not. *deep breath* They're $800 shoes."

Silence... Like that calm, eery silence you hear before a tornado hits. I swear the birds stopped singing and the wind stopped blowing.

Right now I'm pretty sure he's waiting for me to stand still so he can skin me alive. I can't say I blame him. I'm just hoping that he skins off some of the wrinkles when he does. If he succeeds, I'll save money on all this skincare crap and be able to buy another pair.

Sounds like she has good taste!!! :D

:eek: You are a freaking SAINT!!!!!!!!!! He is still breathing after doing that, my God, woman, you are much better than I!:laugh: So he's cost you more than Issy in expensive apparel:p

Yeah, my DH acts like he doesn't know how to clean too. Long ago, we had no washer/dryer so we would go to the laundromat every weekend. He decided to "help" me by adding bleach to the dark clothes washer:mad: And you know, that was the last time I asked him to help me. They are diabolically smart when it comes to this stuff:laugh:

I dunno, maybe you can scare him with some horror stories plucked right off the pages of YT. Awful things that have happened to pups here when they were unsupervised. The ex-pens and crates aren't only for our sanity and potty training, they are for safety as well. Men are so hardheaded! DH used to want to let girls out of their pen as pups when I was busy so I told him only if HE was gonna watch them. Seemed to work, but it was almost 6 years ago now so my memory is probably selective:laugh:

Good luck with this, and PLEASE keep sharing:laugh: You are a gifted writer/storyteller and probably should be doing this professionally in some way:D
