What A Naughty Boy - Neighbours complained - ooops  

Hi Catgotmytongue, Oh I had to laugh too but I hadn't realised he had kept the neighbours awake until later, just thought he had opened the door and was in and out. LOL. Huggles. Ellie :D

What is horrible about the incident is that it is soooo cute that you can't scold the dog! We had a poodle that could open the sliding glass door...so we learned very quickly to keep it locked or else the rose bushes would be stubs by morning.

When the Rottweilers were puppies one of our neighbors gave us her old patio furniture pads for the dogs to lay on. Rocky the brother got a silly streak going one day and by the time I heard him growling and making odd noises it looked like a blizzard in our back yard. The stuffing from the chase lounge pad was flying everywhere!!! It took me two hours to get it cleaned up!!! I will say that I was in total awe, because he was only 6 months old at the time and weighed about 45 pounds. But I stood on the patio and laughed like an idiot and wished I had a video camera handy because he would shake it for awhile and then loose his balance and fall over which made him mad and he'd scramble up and shake it harder for causing him to fall. Which of course made him fall again and get madder... The neat point about it all is that both Rocky and his sister Kitty wouldn't hurt a soul and I taught them water rescue (I live right on the shores of a recreational lake). I lost Rocky 9 months after my Mom died, and Kitty died two years later...I miss both of the crazy idiots tons!!

Hi Lovebear, So much loss but so many happy memories to eh! I can just picture Rocky with the cushion from the chair and the insides scattering everywhere. They have so much fun don't they, but we are the ones that have to clear it all up. Thanks for sharing. Huggles. Ellie :D

Loverbear, I may have your dog reincarnated. Just joking. The little rott. in my photo did the same thing to my chair outside...fuzz everywhere! I can also relate to catgotmytongue's dog...the same little pup brings in bricks, tree limbs, etc. into my house through the back door!

Hi Loud, Yep he managed to open the door and have an adventure all night long LOL. Ziggy hasn't worked out how to open the goody box yet. Della sounds like a character bless, but don't most girls love chocolates. Huggles. Ellie :D

Beware that Chocolates are toxic to dogs.

Hi Bombshell, Oh the neighbour was aware of what her dog was like but I just accepted it, at least with Ziggy providing I remember to lock the door LOL it shouldn't happen again. Huggles. Ellie :D

even if you lock Ellie, if Ziggy is clever enough he still can open it.you know dogs are brainy like human

Oh Missybear LOL Fancy blaming the cats, but yes it usually is them in the garbage. Years ago I had two labs and one would take himself off for a walk round the block most days. He always escaped, should have called him Hudini. Huggles. Ellie :D

Dogs are great bvut i don't want to get another one being in an apartment.

Hi Canadagirl, Katie is absolutely gorgeous but seeing the pic close up you can see mischief in her eyes bless. Oh cats and Christmas trees, they do grow out of it, my two did and don't go near now but the puppy well he was a different matter this year, he would grab the baubles and run round the room with them, I would put back on and say leav it and the minute my back was turned grab another one LOL. I have a water spray bottle too but if homework on the table a bit difficult to squirt so yes I guess after a while for you it does get annoying. Thanks for sharing. Huggles. Ellie :D

Hi Littleone, Oh I bet your kitten got a shock when the hamster bit her, at least she has learnt now not to go near the cage. Finn is so clever opening the door to come in like that, I think my puppy did it more by luck than judegment LOL. Pets are wonderful aren't they but they do get up to mischief. Huggles. Ellie :D

Hi Humbug, Oh yes guinea pigs can be very noisy, I just love them, really miss mine, just have the rabbits now. They are so comical aren't they. Thanks for sharing. Huggles. Ellie :D

Hi Elic, Must have been a good read. I hope the kittens paw is alright too but if not limping is probably okay eh! My Sybil shoves my hand out of the way when I am trying to read to get attention and a fuss and nips my ankles if I am in the kitchen if she wants feeding. LOL. Huggles. Ellie :D

it was, the new Janet Evanovich book

Thanks I will look it up

Hi Tamara, Oh I bet that would have made a picture too, why is it we never have cameras at those moments in time. I bet the neighbour didn't leave his shoes out again until the fences were up LOL. Thanks for sharing. Huggles. Ellie :D

Hi AmbiePam, I think because he was actually out in the garden rather than shut indoors he was probably a lot louder too but I apologised and said why it had happened and they were okay with that. Some dogs do bark a lot and there one when alove did all night long every night but I suppose I am a heavier sleeper than them eh! At least both you and your neighbour have the same problem so no complaints. Huggles. Ellie :D

Yeah, everyone is hesitant to complain here because almost everyone does something to annoy their neighbor. One may have a dog, and one may just stay up all night and a person can hear them when they live below. The same woman who has a dog above me that barks too, also stays up all night. I've heard her hammering at 1am in the morning. But I don't want to complain. Compared to the two occupants before her, she is NO trouble. lol

I think as I lived in a groud floor apartment for years with very noisy neighbours I am so used to noise now in the house I sleep through anything LOL.
