What gets your pups riled up and crazy

[Ldyrev1]

When the DH comes home! It's as if he's been away for weeks. She can't get enough of him. She has to smother his whole face with puppy kisses and wiggles so very much in his arms that he has to put her down before he drops her. LOL Obviously I've done something very wrong as she's supposed to be my dog. HAHA!!

Of course the barking starts again when the pizza is delivered.

I must admit, I sometimes hide in the bedroom when I order pizza to prevent all the craziness!

Harry does exactly the same thing!!!! But not just pizza - Chinese, Indian....you name it, he's THERE!!!!! Andy calls them in hushed tones from another room now - but Harry STILL KNOWS!!!!

And he does the blinds thing too Donna, I think it's the clacking sound they make when they move....

And he really, really hates one particular man that lives in our Close - I don't know why, he's never met him and has only seen him through the window...but he goes completely NUTS if he even gets a glimpse of him...maybe he's trying to tell me something!! Sally + Harry x

Out of all the stories this one and the pizza has to be the funniest, I can't believe how they can sense these things, you have me in tears thinking about your husband whispering his take out order behind closed doors into the phone

Harry's Dad, " I would like an order of Fried Rice and Wonton Soup

Wung Fu "What you say, you want soup"

Harry's Dad "I want Wonton Soup"

Wung Fu " yes I understand you want soup, but I can't hear you, can you say it louder

Harry's Dad "No sorry I can't my dog is on the other side of the door listening"

Wung Fu " CLICK" he say's to his wife, "pwank call"

The only thing so far that gets Roxy riled up and crazy is us! If I leave to take the trash out and come back she acts like I have been gone all day! It's even worse each day that I come home from work. She jumps around and when I pick her up she wiggles so much I'm afraid I will drop her and then she drowns me in teething puppy kisses. When the DH goes to take a shower and comes out she behaves the same way. I'm scared she may hyperventilate when we take her to see my son this week after not seeing him for over a month.

Yumi goes completely nuts and barks at ME when the oven or microwave goes off until I get up and check the food. Its crazy, because she very rarely gets people food and when she does it's never anything that would have come from the oven or microwave. She'll come tell me all about it if I'm in the other room too. She also goes crazy over people. New people, People she knows, doesn't matter... If she hasn't seen you in the last 20min you are the most amazing thing that has ever happened to her.

Both my dogs freak out if you come in the house carrying a plastic bag. Doesn't matter what you got they're SURE its for them. They also both freak out at the door bell, knocking, phone ringing....

Different kind of crazy, but Yuri is terrified of toys that have those weird honky squeakers. He runs in the other room and hides if he hears one, or even if he just sees one that he knows honked once before. We have no idea why. I had to give the honky toys to my sister lol

If only you knew how right you are..... You're not the delivery lady in disguise are you?!!? Sally + Harry x

When I come in the house with shopping bags, mostly grocery bags, bc they're all fun! I usually find a few $1 toys whenever I'm out, so the race is on to check each bag to find the toys! I think I'm the only person in the world with tiny dog footprints in my bread! Then they get their heads stuck in the handles and drag groceries all over the house till I catch them and release the bag! The meat bags have to go up on the counter, but I can tell which ones they are bc the dogs will keep trying more than once to get into those bags, lol. Total chaos till they get their prizes.

Crazy out of their furbutt minds, number UNO is without a doubt the mailman.

It doesn't help that the idiot (all of them) cross right under our front window across our front lawn to go to the house next door. All of the different ones have done it! And it is not supposed to be according to Canada Post. Next time I am home; I will run out the side door and speak to the man. Saying look I didn't come out the front door for a rreason. I know you know we have big dogs, but did you know that dog with reason enough could go through the plate glass window And summer is coming - I want to open my windows - hey what chance do you give a screen? Stay off my front lawn one or two feet at most from the front windows and doors.

Next they do go ballistic for many of our toy games, and of course the water. It can get wearing at times - as they do bark to show their enthusiasnm - quite different bark to the defense one - but hey it is annoying too after 3 or so hours.

Dogs real ones barking on TV - Oh dear me .... We have faces pushed into the TV and they don't get that they don't smell a real dog but actually hear one.

The timer going off on the stove! For Magic that is ambrosia - FOOD is coming OUT - Divine Food - Succulent Meaty smells - People Food! ---- Mommy almost always gives me some. I guarded this food over the WHOLE afternoon ---- I must I must I must have SOME! Now you need to understand my big boy does NOT like heat - he finds the coolest place in the house to lay, Except when Mom's is Cooking!. Then he is no more than 12 inches away from the oven..... Good Grief

Unfortunately for us and Magic -- once he got the smell of bear --- this is his most serious reaction. I can barely keep him under control. He abhors that smell. It only of course happens when we are camping - and unfortunately when he was a pup barely 18mths old, a bear came investigating our campsites. That is the campsites in our area. We had a beautifull fire going, lovely moon, and then whamoo bamoo - we heard tins rattling. Magic goes into guard stance - and it seems the next breath he is lunging barely a pause from his full throated serious guard bark and he is LUNGING. Pulls me clear out of my chair - I am on my back on the ground - Dave is up banging pans like crazy!! Magic PULLS me along the Ground towards the bear. This is against a double collar and leads. The bear left - but it came way to close for Magic's liking. thank God we did not have Razzle then.

People at the door. Once they are inside, she calm down and stops barking.

[nicknab]

A doorbell ringing and the postmans van!! She doesnt mind the postman, just the van and letters (video up soon)

This is Grocery Day! (I think my DH did the shopping, I never buy that many chips! And he won't buy them toys He did buy the recalled Chicken Jerky for them once, but I trashed it before he cold open the package!)(I'll try to do a video later)
