Date: 2009-06-04, 12:54PM PDTLook, I'm going to be honest here. We've all seen those ads for a dog/cat that say how wonderful their pet is, and some sobstory about why they just can't keep little Whiskers. This isn't that type of ad. I'm going to shoot straight from the hip. I hatethis dog.My boyfriend got this damn dog three years ago. Originally, it was for "the kids". They swore up and down they'd take care of it, walk it, feed it,(even though they're only with us part time) blah blah blah. Needless to say, that never happened and we got stuck with this mongrel. My boyfriendalso never really took the time to train this dog. So, three years later, I'm fed up, he's pissed, but we're getting rid of this mongrel.
About the dog:
She is fixed. (Thank you, Jay-sus.)She's black and white with blue eyes. (Admitedly, she is rather pretty.)She's got incredibly long legs, (which she will use to jump a 6 feet fence in one bound. I've seen her do it.)She's roughly 75 pounds or so of sheer muscle.We think she's got Husky or Dane in her, who the hell knows.She is incredibly high energy, and sometimes she snorts a line of canine-cocaine and tears through the house at Mach 10 for twenty minutes or so at atime.Her favorite place is right on top of your chest. Like I said, she's 75 pounds, so if you've got breathing problems, move along.She's wonderful with kids. We have a one year old who climbs all over her, and she doesn't seem to mind.
Why I'm forcing the BF to ditch the dog:
Like the title said, this dog is ill-trained. She doesn't really come when she's called unless you're screaming at the top of your lungs like the Devilhimself is after you. After three screams, she'll come. She also has a bit of a problem with jumping on people. To reiterate, she's 75 freakin' pounds,folks. It's like having a freight train jump on you. This mongrel also seems to think that the cat crap she finds in the neighbors yard is Almond Roca,since she can't seem to get enough of it. I've heard that means she's lacking something in her diet, though I can't figure out what. Aside from feedingher 3 cups of some uber-expensive dog food, she also will eat any food on the table, counters, or your unattended plate. She also has a fondess forused Kleenex and used Q-Tips. Nothing like cat-crap-earwax-snot-smelling breath to wake you up in the morning, eh?The main reason I am forcing my BF to get rid of this dog is because despite our best efforts over the past year, she refuses to be housebroken. Iknow she can go outside, I've seen her do it. We've made it a point to let her out every hour, on the hour. We've waited for 20-30 minutes for her todo her thing. Nothing. Yet the minute her paws hit linoleum, all of a sudden her bladder empties. Sometimes she will go outside, but not always.
