Single hen

[JM]

Was told a while ago that the 3 colours can be described in one word each:

Clumsy - chocolate

Crazy - Black

Greedy - yellow

I agree there - mine is yellow and is incredibly greedy - he'd eat from morning to night given half the chance!!

 

No wonder some dogs have less than fragrant breath.....and worse.

One of his 'pet' names is "Poo breath"

My border collie is truly revolting and breaks into the cat litter box

 

We know its her because she had her head stuck in it one day ( its one of these enclosed ones with the little flap at the front)

Cookie loves chicken poo too and follows them around the garden but.......

 

 

 

 

 

a broody hen poo is just one giant poo too far

even she couldn't manage a whole one

[new chick]

I had a Coc Lab (now gone ) but he would eat everything and anything. they are nuts.

 

Now got a Choc Lab / Staffie cross she will not go any where near the girls.

 

She got a shock from elect fence

 

So it's me who pooh picks, not the dog.

 

bring back the hoch Lab

Our dog does the same thing! If he doesn't eat the poos he takes them to the top of the stairs and lines them up neatly on the carpet for us to find The trouble is that I'm normally carrying a basket of washing and can't see the floor

[Stevie]

Mine freerange the entire garden permanently and my Bullmastiff eats their poop too-then trots in and burps in my face...

 

His farts definetly have a poultry odour to them too...

[Ain't Nobody Here]

I'm starting to appreciate my dog more and more . We often call him fishface but he doesn't eat anything he shouldn't so I think I'll be less critical in future .

[keyhole kate]

My son just rang me to ask for my advice

on getting a dog I mentioned all the

usual he is in military so responsibility falls to his OH,

dog for life,vet bills, his cream carpets

 

I think I might just tell him to have a look

at this thread that will put him and OH right off

[Chickvic]

I don't have a dog but this thread has made me laugh out loud! DH wants to know what's so funny and when I told him - he didn't look too impressed

[Redwing]

Not trying to put your son off Kitty but one of our friends often comes round looks at our 'cream' carpets, sighs and says 'your house used to look like the ones in the magazines'

 

 

So I am guessing that our standards have slipped then! that could be more to do with the fact that we spend so much time laughing at the dog

 

You can't beat animals for entertainment value!

[keyhole kate]

I agree totally the only reason

I mentioned the carpets to him is because

he makes everyone including me & OH

take our shoes off on the doorstep and his home

is also magazine quality (no pets no kids)

 

Thought it best to point out dogs/rain/muddy

paws Which as I pointed out to him is

insignificant compared with being deployed overseas for

six months at a time and his OH having total resposibility

for a dog & children one day.

I told them both to think about it very carefully

 

I often wonder what his OH thinks when he always

rings mummy for advice He is refered to by himself &

me as No1 Son he he

[Redwing]

Is he aware that dogs don't wipe their feet?

 

Or their bottoms.

 

 

Good advice from you though about the OH having to do the work, you obviously love him but at least you don't indulge him!

[Gamebird]

We seem to have discovered a successful method of poo picking in the free range area of the garden....

 

...our chocolate labrador goes around and eats it...

My labrador used to do that too and I thought "great, problem solved". However, it made him sick so that I ended up cleaning regurgitated chicken poo from the hall carpet instead

[Redwing]

ooooooo! second hand chicken poo, I bet it made you recoil when you saw it

[Ain't Nobody Here]

Or their bottoms.

 

Yes they do . On your carpets, sofas, beds, pillows .

 

I'm particularly fond of the "s"Ooops, word censored!"ing bottom along carpet using front paws for traction, whilst holding rear paws in the air" cleansing method. Sound familiar?

[Redwing]

yes! my husband copies the dog for laughs when we have friends round

 

It's ok, he is only 36 so hasn't grown up yet!

[Ain't Nobody Here]

I trust he keeps his trousers on .

 

At what age exactly DO they grow up .

[new chick]

So so funny.

 

Men and Dog. no longer we luv 'em

[keyhole kate]

Its a curse having a vivid imagination

I thought I might wet myself

[cordelia]

I dont think i can get the image of the dog, (having eaten the chicken poop) then throwing up the chicken poop on the carpet....uggghhhhhhhh..

 

thankfully ours hasnt done that...but this morning the cat has been sick on the outside door mat...and I still cant face cleaning it...

 

I have thrown out so many door mats...this one is coir?? and large and wont fit in the bin...think I'll have to brave it ..but much much much.. later

 

our dog now herds our chickens ...very naughty....I know they will soon take flight

[Valkyrie]

Ewwwww - luckily I didn't eat anything before reading this, but my tea definitely wanted to come up over the keyboard. Although Stevie's comment was the worst with the burping dog and I have tried not to imagine the scenes too much!

 

I suppose it would save on dog food, although the worming treatment would counteract it!

 

Perhaps it's their way of recycling.
