Lola's Easter Diet

Easter was pretty uneventful for us so instead of boring you with all that, I thought I'd tell you what Lola ate this weekend in addition to her (very expensive) puppy food.


Thursday--


It's never good when I walk into the living room and see this....



then this at the bottom of the stairs....

and this at the top of the stairs...
She somehow got into the bathroom closet and dragged my pajama pants out....

How in the heck did that piece end up on the spindles?
Here's where the toilet paper is supposed to be......
See that little piece of cardboard?  That's all that is left of the entire roll.  She doesn't just chew on it, she eats it whole!!


She was just driving me crazy Thursday, she tore up three rolls of toilet paper and found the dirty clothes basket and brought every item downstairs piece by piece.  I finally went out to get some chinese food for lunch.  When I got home, I sat down on the sofa and started eating when Lola came in with something in her mouth.  It was the fortune cookie that came with my meal...still in the plastic.


Apparently, three rolls of toilet paper is not enough to fill up a 65 pound puppy because when I ran into the kitchen I found that she ate the rest of my food, including an egg roll and packets of soy sauce and duck sauce.  The amazing thing is she didn't even knock it onto the floor...she ate it right off the counter!
Shortly after that Wayne got home.  I told him about our day, he looked at Lola and said "Have you been a little hellion today?"
"Who, me???"

Saturday--We had no plans for Easter but for some reason I felt compelled to make this stupid bunny cake.  As soon as I finished it, Wayne needed help putting his surgical boot back on so I went to help him.  

When I came back Peter (Cottontail) was missing part of his bowtie.  And Lola had frosting all over her chin.



Sunday--she woke me up at 6am (waaaaay too early for me).  I fed her and was eating my breakfast in the living room when I heard something in the kitchen.  Yep, she helped herself to more of Peter's bowtie. 


She ate it right through the plastic wrap!
Just so you know, the cake was pushed as far back on the counter as I possibly could and I was not eating the bowtie, we ate his ears.


I quickly put her back outside.  A few minutes later I saw this out of the bathroom window.


She ate half of the lawn mower seat.  Half. of. the. lawn. mower. seat.


Monday--She must really like cake for breakfast because she just about finished off Peter's bowtie.


This has nothing to do with her diet, but Monday afternoon I decided to trim her nails and I got a little too close...oops...I felt bad, but I have to admit my first reaction was "That's what you deserve!"


As I was typing this post, she found a paper towel somewhere and went to town shredding it into a million pieces.

I love that dog, but boy does she keep me busy.  I've had dogs that chew things.  I had to keep my shoes in a dresser drawer for a couple years after we got Lincoln, we have to keep all towels away from Toby.  But I have never had a dog that eats everything. in. sight.

On the bright side, we don't have to buy a paper shredder.

  1. OMG, now THAT was funny. Maybe you need to invest in a Hannibal Lecter mask for her...

    Do they make these for DOGS?

  2. Oh my gosh... that makes my heart race just looking at the pictures. I had a dog like that once, then I decided to cash in my vacation and pay for professional dog training. It was the best money ever spent (mostly because I ended up marrying the dog trainer, but besides that...)
    Good luck!!

  3. Okay, obviously, I missed the posts about all that your dog gets into--including food such as the bunny cake.

    Lola is definitely naughtier. And I'm not happy about that. I feel your pain. ;)
