The dog is not talking to me. She refuses to even look at me. Why? Because of a little accident that could have happened to anybody.
On Sunday our son-in-law came over to cook out for Bob's father's day gift. (Bob loves cookouts)
Meanwhile, I bought one of those shock collars for Lucy. Just to keep her from falling off the cliff into the ravine. It was thoughtful of me to do it!
Lucy had been pretty much hiding out in her crate all day, holding her urine. All 4 grandkids were here in the pool and they get kind of loud. The doors were open she just chose not to be out there where the action was for whatever reason. Finally I made her come out so she could relieve herself.
I accidentally (anybody could have done it) left the remote control to the shock collar on the table outside. She ran over in the grass to pee and next thing I knew she was hopping up and down on all fours like a jack-rabbit on speed, yelping and whimpering. I stood there for a second scratching my head. Then I turned around and saw that Eli had picked up the remote and was punching the shock button over and over tryin to figure out what it operated.
I have apologized. I have tried to give her treats. I've done everything I can to make it up to her but she's determined to lay around and feel sorry for herself. whatEVER!
Aw, come on! I don't even believe this. Does nobody here feel bad for me? This dog is psycologically abusing me! And it was an accident. Anybody coulda done what I did.
I mean, how many times have I tripped over her squeak saucer? Or practically broken my toe on her bone in the middle of the night?
What about my FINGER? Did I mope and cry when she went the wrong direction and got my finger nail caught in her lead?
nooooooo. I was "fogiving" and kind.
She won't even sit next to me at breakfast. Now she sits with Bob!
PS Tina sorry about your doggie. Hope she recovers fast. I'm real familiar with the eating of odd ball stuff.
Oh poor Lucy and of all times for this to happen, right when she was outside to take care of business.
Crabbs, you can win her over again. Give her a little time and she will back to your best buddy. Sneek her snacks or what ever you guys consider OK and she will forget all about it. I would be devistated myself if that was happening to me. Oh and I had to fight so much laughing when you descibed what happened. It is terrible and funny in a sick way at the same time.
Suze, I totally forgot to tell you guys. She won't urinate in that area any more. I have tried and tried to get her to go in her usual spot. No way. I have to walk her all the way to the back of the yard or the front.
The shock collar is to correct bad behavior but will also work like an invisible fence teaching them what places aren't safe. We had it turned down to just barely give her a buzz and when Eli picked it up, he turned the dial almost all the way up so she got hit pretty hard.
It was funny, Barman. Never saw anything like it. She sure is ticked at me. Now she's laying with her butt to me. She's never gonna let me hear the end of this. (no pun intended)
Manny, only in that one spot. She won't touch it anymore. But see? You are not supposed to turn those things up past 5 unless the dog is just so stubborn it won't listen up. Hers was set on 3 and that worked fine for her. Eli had it turned up to 7. Only goes to 10.
See, you've been thinking all we do all day while you're bustin your hump is play but bloggers are a hard working people.
My shed is going up today. meanwhile I'm in there removing the old finish from my backsplash tile so I can regrout and seal it before they bring the new countertops.
I could definitely use a DQ break. sigh.
Yea I want to redo the grout in my master bath. Pink tile, brown grout. What were these imaculate people thinking. LMAO
Oh no Denny, Bob is never to blame, it's always Crabby. If it's not Crabby then she was still most definitely at fault.
Yea ok, I believe my fellow bloggers work hard all day, but can't you just say out till around 7 when i get home.
Jeeez! Some day off, i have been on the phone with work 3 times today. The first time they called was at 7:30 a.m.
Tumble, aaaaaaaaHA! Now I have got you on this one. I DID put that collar on soon as we got it cuz I wanted to know what it felt like to be zapped. You can ask Jake, he was there. I remember cuz he told me I was had half a brain or something. I don't remember exactly but...seeeee????
I zapped myself on 3 different settings.
It was ...... shocking.

` At least Eli didn't think it was funny.
` Hmm... I wish I could give you some advice for how to make up to a dog. She's probably anxious because she can't seem to figure out why it happened. She might even be wondering if it could happen again!
` I'm sure she'll get through it eventually. It's not like you cut off her leg.... I say that because there was this one dog that had bone cancer or something in its leg pretty bad and because the woman of the household took it to the vet to get the leg amputated, the dog not only can't stand to be around her, but defends her husband from her!
` True story. Saw it on T.V. ...No, really, it was a documentary-type thing.

Crabby, a friend from work want's to comment here, but doesn't want you to think she is dogging you.
You may remember her from my blog a while back.
Her name is indiansfan. She is a friend and also my boss.
She started a blog, but doesn't do much with it so encourage her to do so.
She mostly IM's. I IM now too.

I hope Lucy is better with you today, you mean, mean Mommie!! Get that collar off her!!!!!!! Poor little girl, she will have a complex from now on, plus the grandkids will make her remember the "shock of it all"!!! Don't share the collar with Manny, either. I might be one of the people she wants to use it on!
seequin, I think Eli was just trying to figure out what the remote operated. LOL! I thought it was sweet how concerned he was about her getting a different collar too. I beleive you about the leg story. I've seen things similar to that.
Sign, oh yeah. Bob's daughter has 4 youngins and they all call me grandma Pam. I'm real proud of that and them.
wmy, I know what you're up to, you little imp! I am not jerking off a dog for your entertainment. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ha ha ha ha!
Indiansfan of course you're always welcome to post. Come on ahead! We're harmless. Well, I am. Watch out for wmy though. She'll have you jerking off your pup if she thinks she can get away with it. LOL!

well, atleast both of the boys are fixed. And I don't really think I could help out the girl. Altho, I have one boy that thinks humping her head is really making her happy!! Maybe I do need to get one of those collars for him!! NO!! Never mind!! And Manny can't have it either. She just wants to use it and spend the rest of the day with Medics when they come to get employees!!
Indiansfan, I don't even wanna think about Manny in possession of one of those collars. Heap bad ju ju.
Smilin George humps Miss Ellies dogs face every time I dog sit for her. If you ever saw Miss Ellie's dogs face, it'd make perfect sense to you.
ok, that was wrong. I'll go sit in the corner now.
Manny, if that lady could really impregnate things with her hand, she woulda been on Springer by now. ahhhhhhh ha ha ha ha ha ha! I crack me up.
Poly, LOL! You're probably right. Poor Lucy. She finally made up with me tonight and darned if I didn't accidentally step on her toe on our way out the door.
Barman, I knew she would. Seems like most folks who come here fit in. Crazy people attract each other that way. LOL!
