Anybody want a dog?

I’m so sick of one of our dogs using the inside of the house as a bathroom. She’s a 1.5 year old Shihpoo (yes, unleash the weaponry, but remember that my daughter got to choose, so what do you expect - a Rottweiler?) and she’s such a nervous scared thing that she will pee and poop in the house if the weather outside is nasty, like now, with wind and rain.

Also, if we’re upstairs, rather than risk us disappearing should she go downstairs and use the doggy door, she’d rather just do her business conveniently in the upper deck of the house. That way, we can’t escape, and she’s not left alone with just our other dog.

It amazes me, because she is trained, she’s just such a primadonna. The beagle goes outside, no problem, rain or shine, so we even have the advantage of the dogs being around one another, the older training the younger.

Anybody want a damn dog?

Thats what I was thinking. He did sell it so very well though. I bet there are a bunch of offers in his PM box to take it already.

You put two or three cool breeds in front of the kid and say “pick your puppy, sweetie.”

Seriously. Or next time, your dog with be half poodle and half unicorn.

Have you told your daughter that you’re giving away her dog? Sorry, I just can’t take a little girl’s dog away from her. Otherwise, I would totally be in. The dog sounds awesome!!

Here are some other solutions. You have experience changing diapers right?

There you go. If you wanted it to work during the day you could just bungie your dog into the bed, put some wheels on it and drag her around the house. Friggin primadonna (but trained) dog, you’ll show her…

Jesus (sorry, Prem) Todd, How can you be so dense? Call Victor. He’ll take her in a hearbeat.

There was a business near here called Your Pet is Dead.com which specialized in solving exactly this situation. They would even hit your pet with a car making it look like an accident. But they seemed to have gone off the air.

And I was thinking Peter Cargasacchi would have some recipes posted by now…

If you’ll deliver, I’d like to send that dog to a few people I don’t like very much
