Die Dog!

We usually put our dog in the downstairs bathroom when we leave somewhere, just to keep her in a safe location~confined. Well, lately we have let her be out of the bathroom when we are gone. Giving her the privilege of being free. I try to shut the bedroom doors when we do this, because I have "caught" her sleeping on Nathaniel's bed a few times. I can't stand pet hair on beds (just disgusting). So, anyway, we were going to be gone for a few hours last night, and I had shut the bedroom doors when we left. Terry ran back in the house to get his wallet, and accidentally left our bedroom door open.

When we came home, we noticed that Lena (our dog) had dug in the garbage cans, and pooped on our bedroom floor. Talk about being ticked off with her!! We have left her for hours longer in the bathroom, and she has not had any accidents~since we got her over 2 years ago. Actually, there have been a couple of times where she had been in the bathroom 10-11 hours...and no accidents! So, we were shocked, and very upset with her. After Terry cleaned up the mess, he crawled into bed next to me. Then he said, "Get up." Lena had peed on our bed! Ohhh...I wanted to do something terrible to that dog! That was completely uncalled for. As if pooping on our floor wasn't bad enough!! GRRR....She not only peed through our comforter, through the sheets, and through the mattress cover, it got the foam padding wet. I can't wash the foam padding, so now that is trashed!

Terry and I are so mad with Lena!! Needless to say, she has lost her privilege to be free when we are gone...back to the bathroom she goes!
