Living with Frosty 101

Living with Frosty 101

We have decided because we could not trust Frosty to stay at the house by herself in the whole house…. We could have her gated in the kitchen.. Giving her …her food dish… the water supply… her softy bed and A PAD…

Which has worked pretty good.. notice I said pretty good.

Most like a hit and miss.   I think she might need glasses as her aim is lousy..  But actually I think she does that on purpose… to get back at us for not taking her with us.  But you got to understand.. we never have taken her any place with us.. yet.

I think it is a doxie trait. Because I had some friends who had a black doxie.. and they took him most places.. His name was Charlie.   But if they went to dr. or somewhere .. where Charlie was not allowed.. they leave him home..  One of the times he went to the bathroom, pulled the toilet paper off of the roll and ran thru the trailer with it.  ALL OF IT…  So they shut the door.  Next time, they left him, he found a way to jump up on the kitchen chair and then the table.. and threw the salt and pepper shakers all around the table.. as there was salt all over the table and then on to the floor..  So the next time, they pushed the chairs under the table.. He moved the chairs back out and got up there again..  this time, not only throwing the salt and pepper around but chewing on the napkins left on the table.  I don’t remember what happen after that.. but I know Charlie was with them most of the time. 

We never know what the kitchen is going to look like when we get home.  So far she has taken the towels off the towel rack.. hit and miss the pad with pee and poop…  if my slippers are in there, one is by the gate.. and the other is down the room a bit.

Now Frosty has got creative.

Friday morning we went out to breakfast and the store..  We came back to the pad being crumpled up.  The food dish has been moved under the stools in there.. and the water container was moved to.. and she was sloppy about it.. as there was water every where..  I told the King I think the reason why the pad was crumpled up, was she was trying to clean up the mess.   I clean up the mess and took her outside for a potty break.

Later that morning we went to our sister in law’s house.. so we were gone 3 hours.  We came back to the pad crumbled up, the food dish moved across the room and under the sink hang over. No water spilt as I had removed the water container.. Figure she would not be dry in a mere 3 hours. My slippers that were in there, were flung around the room and the towel hanging from the towel rack was on the floor, crumpled as well. 

It is getting to be a challenge to see what can she do next.
