This is my latest Zoe story. Someone thought it was funny and that I should post it here. This happened last week. It's kind of long but from what I hear hysterical. I, on the other hand, do not find it funny. I really do love this dog. Otherwise she wouldn't still be in my house but she pushes me to my limit quite often.
I am going to strangle her. I am literally going to strangle the dog. I love her, but I hate her all at the same time. I have had it. I don’t want her anywhere near me. Last night I had just finished feeding the dogs their snacks before bed and I was going to send them outside. DJ was out back smoking. Keira and Kai, dogs from a street over who get out all of the time, came over and jumped the fence and got into the back yard. They jump their own fence, which is how they get over here. DJ was hanging onto them because they don’t stay long, they jump the fence and right back out they go. Our dogs wouldn’t stop barking and they were flipping out. DJ wanted 2 of our leashes so he could take Keira and Kai home. I couldn’t get the leashes out the door without all of our dogs running out and Keira is fine but Kai is dog aggressive. My kitchen has 2 large entryways in it. They both have doors but one of them I just use a baby gate because the door is hard to close with the table there. I called the dogs and they all came, except Zoë of course. I put them all out and closed the door and put the gate up at the other door. I went and got Zoë and put her over the gate. I didn’t put her in her cage because it was to far away and I was in a hurry. She wasn’t in it to begin with because it was snack and bedtime. I get the leashes and I go to hand them out the door and who shows up at my side trying to bolt out the door? You guessed it, none other than that little b**ch of a dog. I manage to get the leashes out the door without her getting out and than I took her and put her back over the gate. What does she do? She stares me in the face and squats and sh**s all over the floor. Staring me in the face the whole time she’s doing it. You can bet I’m pi**ed. She got a good pop on the butt for that one. Than I took her and put her in her cage so I can clean it up because she likes to eat it. After I get it cleaned up I let her out and head straight for the door to let them outside. What does Zoë do? You guessed it. She gets right by the kitchen table and she stares me in the eye and she squats and pee’s right in the floor by the kitchen table. She’s one of those dogs that if I let her upstairs by herself she’d pee on all of the beds when she gets mad. I am so mad at her today. I was so mean to her last night but the bad part is, I don’t even feel bad about it. I could care less. I have never been so angry in my whole life. If this were the first time I would ignore it but she is just a miserable little b**ch of a dog and I hate her. I love her at the same time but I hate her. I am going to strangle her and than hang her up by her ears until they fall off.
Now that I sound like a horrible unfit mother I’m going to go take the dogs out back. I just had to blow off some steam.

Sorry, but I had to laugh. My aunt has a small dog and when he gets in trouble he will go take a crap in her bed. She has to shut her door when she is not in the bedroom because of it. Some dogs do have mental issues.
This dog definintely has mental issues. I don't know where they came from. I adopted her so maybe her mom or dad was insane. She most definitely is my little head case.

Zoe, I admit, I did laugh. But with good reason. My Mollie used to do the exact same thing when I first got her. We would all be down in the basement, watching tv or something, and she'd go right up to the tv, squat and sh*t on the floor, right in front of the tv!! We'd all be staring at her and she'd just do it, for no reason at all. She would also sh*t and p*ss on the floor by the tv when we were not home, like as if to say "you dare leave me alone?? well, p*ss on you!!" She would do it EVERY TIME!! We finally had to crate her when we left. Sometimes she would even pee on my bed while we were both sleeping in it!! She was/is a spiteful little sh*t!! She's not half as bad as she used to be. I think having Chopper has helped with that a whole lot. Now, she only sh*ts when we put them in their doggie room when we leave. We don't always put them down there, but Chopper likes to ruin mini blinds as well, when we leave so we put them down there sometimes. I just thought it was amusing that someone else out there has almost the same problem as I do. Get this, the other day, I took Mollie and Chopper over to my mom and dad's just for like 10 min. They have a female min. schnauzer that is also dominant, she's their only dog. Anyway, I left them on their leashes and I proceeded to raid the fridge. Dad was sitting in his chair, playing with Chop. I look over just for a second, and what do I see?? Mollie goes over to the tv, squats, and p*sses on the floor!! Right in her old spot where she used to do it when we lived with them!! I could not believe it!! She got a paddling on the butt for that one!! Luckily, the carpet is old and soon to be replaced so my mom wasn't too upset.
I never even knew spiteful dogs existed until Zoe. She gets mad so easily and she always gets me back by pottying in the house and staring me in the face at the same time. She turned 1 in March.
I used to let her sleep on the bed with us and the rest of the dogs. When the baby would wake up at night Zoe would get in my spot to sleep. When I would come back to bed and move Zoe it would make her mad and she would sh*t in the floor next to where I slept. Hubby and I even tried switching spots on the bed to see if she really was mad at me. Sure enough she was. She stopped sleeping on the bed and sleeping in her crate when Gillian woke up for the second time I reached to get my glasses that I had knocked in the floor and instead of picking up glasses I picked up a big Zoe turd!

EEEEEWWWW, YUCKY!!!! That would certainly P*SS ME OFF!!! Mollie I guess, was not that bad, but she was still pretty naughty!! I don't blame you for keeping her in her crate at nite and when you're not home. She'll have everything covered in sh*t and p*ss!!
Zoe has major issues which is why I didn't crate her before. She eats herself when she's in her crate, literally. She chews her legs and everything. She had my house destroyed because I couldn't crate her. Eventually after we adopted Tucker I realized that her and Tucker got along really well so I started putting her and Tucker in the crate together. Well Tucker is 10 months old and has now grown to 87 pds. 2 weeks ago. Needless to say Zoe and Tucker don't fit together anymore. Zoe is okay in the crate now. Still eats herself some but its not as bad. She also spends most of her day in a very large cage with either Tucker or Toby. I switch them out. I just can't watch her every second of the day and she eats EVERYTHING and destroys EVERYTHINGS and goes to the bathroom EVERYWHERE! Between school and the kids I just don't have 24 hours a day to devote to watching her every move. Now that its getting warmer she'll be spending a LOT of time out doors.

That's too bad you're having so much trouble with her :( What kind of dog is Zoe again?? and Tucker and Toby?? Didn't Toby used to get in the garbage somehow and eat the leftovers from there?? I think I remember that from when we were both on tp. Those pics of Toby in the trash were priceless!!
You're thinking of Wendy I believe. I do have a Toby but mine is a black lab/german shepard mix. Wendy's Toby was a pomeranian/maltese or something like that. My Toby is abou 120 lbs. He did use to eat the trash but in a different way!

I have to laugh because I have the same problem with Addie. She is sooooo spiteful! If she gets mad at ANYONE in the house it is MY fault and therefore requires prompt diciplin of dear old mom. She goes into my room and gets on my bed and squeezes off a little tiny bit of a turn on my side of the bed. Usually right where the bottom of my pillow and the mattress meet. UGH Drives me crazy! And It can be hours later that I find it and as soon as she spots me finding the turd she runs for cover!
Now I have a water bed and she refuses to get on the bed! Hates the motion of the mattress. So her latest trick is pulling my pillows OFF the bed and peeing on them! DRIVES ME NUTS!!

Pits I keep all of the doors closed upstairs so that Zoe can't get on any of the beds. I know that is right where she would go. I also keep the downstairs gated so that she can't get down there. We don't use that floor very often so if she ever left any surprises down there it would be a while before we found it. EWWWWW!
