Sorry no pics but just last night my kids and I were playing with some water balloons...my chocolate lab decided she wanted to play.
She was catching them and carrying them around, without breaking them!!! This was the funniest thing I've seen. When she stepped on them and they would break, she would look at me with that "Where did it go???" look.

I rescued a dog back in 2004. She was 5 years old and came to us in need of a bath. So I asked her want to take a bath? So I started the water in the bath tub and had to go looking for her. I looked in every room of the house and could not find her. I found her in the guest room behind a stack of pillows, on her back hiding from the bath. All I could see of her from the door was a tip of her back leg. She did not want a bath. But she has been my buddy ever since and I love her.

Old Guy - this had me chuckling. The rat terrier that I rescued in September rolled in something yesterday, husband gave her a bath. Several hours later he let her out and SURPRISE! When he let her back in, she needed another bath. Later, he calls me on the phone and is telling me about the two bath day that he's had, and let's her back in the house - and swears up a blue streak. Guess who needs bath number 3??
She was not amused by him when I got home - barely came out of her dog bed.

We have a cat who cries when she has a toy in her mouth, like a Lego or her favorite string. Well one night she came upstairs crying & opens her mouth & out drops a very big ugly spider. I hate spiders thank goodness my Dh was home so he could kill it. Poor Diamond was mad cause she still wanted to play with it.

I have two Chi's , and the one year old Dixie, will get one of her bones and tote it around the house whinning, looking for some place to hide it. She will look at us like "where can i put it that Dakota will not get it". It is so funny to watch her do that. And of course when she does decide to put it somewhere, Yes, Dakota goes and gets it.

This happened to a good friend who had a handyman re-build a wooden staircase inside their living room.
It goes like this:
Step 1: Advise handyman not to let Tommy the Curious Cat go into the big hole of the half-built staircase in their living room.
Step 2: Go to work and leave Tommy the Cat with handyman.
Step 3: Return home 8 hours later. Look for Tommy the Cat. Cannot find him.
Step 4: Ask Handyman if he has seen Tommy. "nope, not in a long time."
Step 5: Hear a faint meow in the bathroom ceiling - down the hall.
Step 6: Look up in the bathroom (under construction) to see cat eyes looking down at your from the ceiling -- he could not get out.
Step 7: Get a ladder and bring Tommy the Cat down. Watch Tommy as he RUNS for the litter box after a very Loooong day.
Step 8: Decide that big holes in half-built staircase are just too much temptation for one feline to resist. Tommy did in fact cruise into that staircase and then promptly got sealed up inside that morning.
Duh! Poor Tommy. Never turned down an opportunity for mischief.

Great stories & funny too!
Whew! I was picturing having to tear down the staircase to get Tommy The Cat out!
Maybe a crate would be in order, temporarily.
Thanks to all,
Dawn

This must be a rat terrier thing...I have 2 of them, both like to roll in anything they can find that stinks. Bonnie has had more than one multiple bath days. She rolled in a dead deer once.... that was not amusing. I wound up paying the vet's office to clean the deer goo out of her ears.
One "funny" incident occured at a highway rest stop out west somewhere (Montana??) I was visiting with another person with dogs in the grassy area of the rest stop. All of the sudden she started to laugh, pointing at my bRat terriers who were happily rolling in elk poop. Boy... did they ever stink!! Thank goodness for the outdoor shower on our RV.
Can you see the black stuff on the side of her neck? I'm not sure what it was, but it didn't smell good! This was one of the multiple bath days last week.

We had a rat terrier growing up and she also liked to roll in smelly things. After one particularly nasty romp, my mom threatened to put an ad in the newspaper saying: Free to good home Dog that likes to roll in dog poop
We kids were scared she would really do it. My mom loved that dog so much that when Pepper died at age 18 1/2 mom couldn't bear to get another one.
She also used to like to get her bone and run in circles under all the furniture - Pepper that is! - round and round the room she would go! She used to bonk her head so many times I don't know how she didn't knock herself out! And she was so smart! We had this couch in the living room that she wasn't allowed on. When it got moved to the basement, she STILL wouldn't get on it even when coached.
Dogs are funny and enrich our lives so much!
