When this dog is no where in sight…
And it’s super quiet…
And we call her name…
And she nonchalantly walks back into the room…
This is the result.
(If you can’t tell she has Kleenex stuck on her paw.)
BUSTED!!!
She loves to get into our trashcan and rip apart the Kleenex and everything else that’s in it. I honestly think she just like watching us clean it up. Anyone else have this problem?


Hi Everybody! I'm Angela. I love my dogs, adore my husband and try to make the best out of everyday! 

Oh yes, whenever my dog is not in the same room and being quiet, I know he’s up to something. Usually it’s eating shoes, my leather wallet, or pillows. Sometimes he likes to eat the junk mail left on the kitchen table as well. He always looks guilty.
Nicole, I guess I should be lucky that it’s just Kleenex and not something that’s actually worth something. Although as a puppy she did destroy a very expensive pair of jeans! I think that was God’s way of telling me not to waste money on jeans…:) ha!
Ahh yes….its quiet, and then you ask yourself, “why’s it so quiet?” And halfway through your sentence, you realize…the dogs are missing! If its any consolation, I woke up this morning and my brood had gone dumpster diving in the kitchen and presented us with a chewed up Spaghetti-O’s can (I’m pregnant don’t judge me) and a chicken pot pie container.
Emily, no judgment here with Spaghetti-O’s. I love them. Always will. Luckily they have no access to that trash otherwise we’d be cleaning up every five minutes.
I sooo have this problem…. Oh wait I don’t have dogs.
Chica, my Bichon, does this all the time. Forces me to empty the trash cans more often…
My old dog used to go after snotty tissues…ewwww….
My dog has a love of the delicacy of snotty tissues and used tampons….eww, doesn’t begin to cover it…
Trixie, my Jack Russell Terrier, LOVES to get into the bathroom trash can! She takes out a tissue, then rips it up. She doesn’t EAT it, mind you, just shreds it! She knows it’s wrong and she’s been punished for doing this for years. I seriously think she has this thought process where she goes up to the trash can, thinks about the punishment she will receive, then says to herself, “TOTALLY worth it!” and digs in!!
Dogs are awesome, aren’t they? LOVE your blog! So glad I found it!!
oh my, i do indeed have some kindred spirits in some of my dogs. Our chocolate lab LOVES to rip kleenex to shreds (and tampons….ewwwwwwwwwwww), and her and our other black lab mix/beast/thing also have the inclination to DESTROYYYYYYY sticks until they’re no longer sticks but toothpicks…weird.
lovin’ your blog! ;0)
