She asks having just had to wade into a duck pond to collect a beagle...and fish out three duck carcasses :o :( :mad:

I could have DIED. The bugger managed to get out of a stable he was shut in and I was only alerted to this fact when I noticed a mass exodus of ducks making their way across the fields.

mine was not so much naughty - as a misunderstanding.....

we've always sent a dog through a garden of an old manse thats stood empty - next season - sent dog through as usual but didnt know that people had moved in - dog came merrily trotting back with their pet chicken :o

i was mortified - very appologetic etc - but the woman was histerical - literally about to have a panic attack - offered ring its neck and replace it because although dog is soft mouthed it had obviously caused a bit of injury as chicken could not stand due to an injured leg. hysterical (i;m taking howling and crying, couldnt breath etc) woman took all details and called police and tryed to get them to give me an ABSO :eek:

police came out to in laws house later (yes even worse this was at in laws :o ) and tryed to be serious but kept giggling saying that we should replace it with one from sainsburys LOL but said in all seriousness we did right by offering to replace etc.

he also gave me an update on the chicken - that the emergency vet had been out to sedate and treat it and that it was in a critical but stable condition.....

he said he was not going to pursue as they had a duty to protect their animals and if a dog could get in then the perimeter fencing was not good enough and a fox could have easily had it by now. he did also say that she was still hyper-ventilating etc when he went to see her 5 hrs after she called :eek:

so a week later we get a vets bill for £80 plus a bill for £10 for a new chicken - aparently the chicken had deteriorated over night and had to get the emergency vet out again to have it PTS

needless to say we dont go anywhere near the manse now!
 
Well, one of our patterdales, Ruby, killed all the hens and the 2 yard cats and any fox which happens to pass through:):). She has also had they neighbors dogs by the throat on numerous occasions:eek:
 
I'm not too sure where to start, but it would mostly be puppies. Previously, those that have lived in the house have managed to chew the top of the back of shoes, if you see what I mean. They never select a pair of shoes to ruin, but one shoe from every pair. :eek:

The most recent, was last night, when the 4 month old cocker puppy, Waif, caught and set about Gladys, an elderly and particularly tame bantam. It took me a minute to catch her, and those dangly bits which hang down each side of the dogs head aren't as some think, ears, they're handles. Being "squared-up", didn't seem to bother her, much, which is a bit worrying! Young though she is, I suspect that a bit of discipline may be in order! The little tinker. ;)

Alec.

We were on holiday in Cornwall recently and went for a walk on the beach. Max, our GSD, loves the sea and we usually throw his ball into the sea for him to fetch.

On this particular day we had forgotten his ball. He was desperately looking for something for us to throw for him and kept bringing us bits of seaweed which was all he could find. Then he spotted a family sitting on the other side of the beach with a large blue beach ball! I saw him spot the ball and knew exactly what was going to happen next. Yes you guessed - he ran, full pelt, across the beach and grabbed the ball which immediately punctured so he spat it out and came running back to us. Leaving a rather shocked family with two startled toddlers.

Luckily the family were very understanding and could see the funny side. We apologised profusely and insisted on buying them another ball. We went to the beach shop, replaced their ball and bought a more suitable ball for Max to save any further embarrassment.
 
Stole sausages from someones picnic basket - luckily they were doggy and didn't mind, but they were concerned as the sausages had cocktail sticks in them, not that my dog noticed!

The WORST thing? Startled two horses, daughter screamed and panicked and pony ran off, daughter fell off with her mother's horse cantering alongside. Dog still pursuing horses (well, chasing is fun, right?) me still yelling and chasing after dog. Dog and horses go way out of sight along track that in 500m ends on main A road. :o Thankfully mother on horse manages to catch pony and stop, and which point the fun game is over and dog returns not looking sheepish at all. I was mortified, thankfully daughter not hurt and mother was understanding. :eek: :o :o
 
Where to start.

Our English Setter is a gorgeous dog, but was a terrible puppy. One of her more famous incidents was wading through the pond that we share with out neighbours (I say pond, more like pit of sloppy mud) and wandering into their garden. She then noticed their front door was open so wandered in. Our neighbour had recently had a stroke so was in bed downstairs with lovely fresh white sheets. Yep you've guessed it, she saw our neighbour and being a very affectionate girl decided to go and say hello. She jumped up onto his bed (still covered in stinky mud), snuffled all over his face and then curled up on his lap, wriggling with happiness. It's hilarious now but as you can imagine wasn't appreciated at the time.

We also used to have free range hens and she loved to "play" with them. On one occasion she picked up a bantam in her mouth (very softly thank God) and was walking round the garden with her. I saw her, screamed at her to drop the hen, she looks at me, runs to the bottom of the garden, throws the hen in the air, catches her and then just keeps running round! The hen was fine thank God but after that incident we decided to rehome them just in case she tried it again.

Would you believe it she is now the most docile loving dog I have ever met, but it took some time!
 
Barney killed a bird in my nans garden then took it into her house ... And ate it on her brand new cream carpet :o he was in disgrace for a very long time!!!
 
My GSD has - raided the fridge, complete with a full box of eggs & shells, butter etc,etc the gastric aftermath was horrendous! She has also raided the freezer in the past with further gastric explosions! We now have hasp & staple locks on both!! She has also in space of 2 minutes removed a shop bought birthday cake from the bag, wrapper & box!! Never had such a greedy, thieving dog - no wonder we are her 4th owners!!

on a regular basis..........................




he's a legend really..... i cant shout at him as he's too cute!! :D
 
Hound puppy we were walking got the Sunday roast off the table while I was outside shouting that dinner was ready...... he (Dalton) passed us on the way in/out, raced round the orchard with it (leg of pork).... took ages to catch. We washed it off, gave it a blast in the hot oven and ate it ayway.
 
I drove a friend's horse from Surrey to Dorset and took my lurcher for the ride. Arrived in Dorset at 8pm in the pitch black, took dog for a short walk/wee and he ran off in the dark and killed a deer. We played ring a ring of roses round the dead deer for seemingly ages before I managed to rugby tackle him and drag him all the way back to the lorry, where I discovered I'd dropped my car keys!

I spent 2hrs in the dark in the middle of nowhere looking for my keys before I gave up and called my poor mother who drove all the way from Surrey with my spare set. I finally arrived home at 5am and dog was in my bad books for rather a while!
 
Where to start.
I had a terrier who was a fantastic ratter. One lovely Sunday she killed a squirrel in a park, full of families. On a yard or farm she would always take her kill round to show everyone in sight & be told how good she was, before burying it somewhere. So she did the same in the park, proudly showing everyone her dead squirrel. Then placed it right next to the entrance to the kids playground while she dug up an empty flowerbed to bury it.
Current dog has too many to list. Eating an incredibly expensive pair of custom made leather riding boots, which were the only ones I've ever had that fitted me perfectly. And when I first got him, he had never known regular food, so was a pretty good thief. We were walking in a secluded area. A couple were having what appeared to be a romantic picnic, champagne etc. Dog ran straight through the centre, barely pausing & came out the other side with his mouth crammed with food. He had to put it down at a distance to eat it. And his paw prints hadn't done much for the rest of the picnic. The couple were livid, so I pretended he was following myself & other dog, & wasn't mine. Then shouted him when I got a good distance away.
As a child we came home one day to notice a table looked a bit odd, & was no longer stable. Turned out the pyrenean pup had eaten the bottom of all the legs, reducing it in height somewhat.
Boyfriends mums dog stole her bra from the washing basket. Jumped the garden fence for the first time ever, & proceeded to race around their quiet road, where nearly everyone is retired & spend a lot of time in their gardens. So most of the neighbours got to see too.
 
Our lab puppy seems like an angel compared to some. He was lying on my pure wool rug, by the fire and we thought he was asleep. I had my back to him, so couldn't see what he was doing. When he got up, I realised that he had pulled the wool out of the rug, a large bald patch, right down to the backing. The rug is not relegated to my bedroom where nobody can see it. I had to buy another one. When he was about 15 weeks old, he did the Andrex trick. My grandson left the bathroom door open and I found three loo rolls in shreds on the living room floor.

This had me in stitches, what a diva that woman was:D, the policeman sounded very sensible and took the common sense approach.

Kirsty Kate your dog sounds like a nightmare but typical working Patterdale behaviour.

Noodle just be careful, my friends Spaniel does this and has had 2 operations after eating socks, towels etc.

Mine havnt been too bad, the usual boots,chairs but the worse was a very expensive John Partridge coat in which I stupidly left in the kitchen with treats in the pocket.:eek:
 
Killed my mum's elderly but still very sprightly and much-loved cat. Witnessed by cousins, sub ten years old, and half sister aged two. Didn't have the decency to finish her off either resulting in the most panicked drive of my life and a massive vet bill for her brief treatment, PTS and cremation.

They have a new cat now. It doesn't like me one bit and has bitten me on several occasions (never been bitten by a cat before, this one actually draws blood!). The other one is never, ever spoken of. The toddler refers to Dax always as 'naughty Dax' but thankfully doesn't otherwise remember the incident. :o
 
When I was younger I found it appropriate to teach my BC to jump through car windows on command. When friends pulled up outside the house I would send her out and she would dive through the window police dog stylee.

Well one day mum opened the front door to put the rubbish out, she had not long came home from a walk so was pretty manky, still wet etc. One of the neighbours has a child minding business and one of their clients pulled up to drop their son off. She bombed out the front door and launched straight through the open window into the lap of the driver. Shes a cross with a labrador so she isnt light! Luckily he was a dog person and saw the funny side!

My old dog- a little sight hound mongrel had an obsession with tearing up newspapers. One year she opened all the christmas presents overnight christmas eve while we were sleeping.
 
Can't quote as on my phone
Posie_honey that had me in stitches!!!

Our springer spaniel demolished our three pie ce suite in the time it took my mum to do the school run (many years ago), cane home to a lounge full of foam, didn't realise there was that much stuffing in sofas lol
 
Ruby's worst must be killing my pet rabbit George who was given to me as a present :eek:

She also helped herself to my birthday cake this year when i left her and the cake in the car whilst i ran back into my mums to fetch something i'd forgotten lol

actually the more i think about it the more things i can remember! :D
 
Wow at some of these :eek: Making mine look like an angel in comparison (although now I've said that...)
Alec - have you got any bigger hens that could sort your spaniel out? Thea (8mo Working CS) regularly gets pinned down by our 3 brown hens and pecked on the head when they think she's getting above herself :o :D She's much less inclined to chase them now though (we did have a couple of chase/catch/"drop that NOW" moments before) - just simply runs over the top of them as if they weren't there :rolleyes:
Touch wood she's not really done much beyond the usual shredding paper and getting the house covered in mud (really hope I'm not speaking too soon!) but she has destroyed a couple of thankfully old horse rugs when she's been left in the barn with the other dogs, got bored and they haven't been put away properly.
 
Hmm my dog has always been quite well behaved apart from a couple of isolated incidents.

Last Halloween, he must have been about 5 months old, the little girls from next door (who still adore him) came into our garden for trick or treating, he took exception to their masks and pinned the youngest one down and kindly removed the offending beast attached to her face.

I took him to the park with my friend and we were feeding the ducks and the geese. Me being incredibly naive believed that he wouldn't go near the edge of the water as we walk him there every day and he had never done it in the past. I also believed that the geese and ducks wouldn't come too close to the land due to the dog. How wrong I was. A little tussle ensued and a goose swam off with a chunk of fur in it's mouth.

My favourite one: :) We were making our Sunday roast, normally the dog is very good and gets some chicken left overs, only this Sunday he was feeling rather peckish, so he robbed the chicken carcass out of the bin and did a victory lap of the garden :D
 
Many years ago I adopted a border collie x beagle from Dog's Trust, there were no home checks back then, you walked in, paid your money, picked up your dog and took him home ... the amount of times I rued the day I ever went there lol, the clue was in his breeding, border collie x beagle, what a mix eek, but me in my ignorance had no idea, if only i had of known haha

well Charlie as he was named omg what a horror he was, within days of being home he killed a neighbours pet rabbit, strike one

he was aggressive out of the house, on a lead handable tho, one morning all his birthdays came at once, the postman came at the same time as the bin men, woohoo, the postman knocked, Charlies bouncing at the door 'let me at him, let me at him' I'm in the middle of getting dressed so I shout down to the kids, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR, so what do they do?, they open the door, Postie wise to ol' Charlie boy stands aside as Charlie rushes past, first bin man jumps onto a wall, 2nd jumps into a now empty wheely bin 3rd runs down the street, followed by Charlie, followed by myself, barefoot, wearing only my bra and knickers *hangs head in shame* I caught Charlie and drag him home by collar, by now I'm too angry to realise I'm half naked stomping home, to wolf whistles from the bin men and postie who let me off Charlies shenanigans thanks to the show *blush* strike two

not to give up on Charlie tho I duly every week went to dog training class, we even went to dog shows where we did very well in the obedience classes, except for one time in the field next door was a herd of cows, Charlie did his class good as gold, did offlead heelwork, a drop on recall etc, at the end I went to say good boy to him, tried to grab his collar missed and he took off, so in front of everyone at the show, all the judges, my teammates, and friends/family etc, (see Charlie can be a good boy who i was trying to impress) Charlie had a ball that day chasing cows *sigh* strike three

I did love Charlie boy such a character

so I was moaning to my dog trainer, I took Charlie out for walkies but I could never let him off lead, he would either chase humans or any animal he came across so my trainer said "I know the ideal place! I'll take you" woop woop so one fine morning we set off to go on a walk to a place where no one goes, where there are no other animals, weyhey! Charlie can go off lead, we drive for a while, get out the car, I walk for a while, all the trainers dogs are offlead, Charlie still on his, me too nervous to let him off, so Trainer unclips his lead and I'm in heart attack mode, but we walk and we walk for miles, for hours, I'd relaxed and charlie was running with the other dogs having a ball, by this time were walking through quite thick heavy woods, can barely see the sky through the canopy, when all of a sudden there is a field, in the middle of a woods/forest there is a damn field!!!! noooooooooooooo well Charlies off! in the middle of this field is sheep! noooo not sheep!! arrrghhh so the sheep are running round the field followed by Charlie followed by me (at least I'm dressed this time) ... I've got no chance, suddenly big man appears .. shot gun half cocked down by his side, shouts over "get your dog or I'll shoot him" me shouts back "SHOOT HIM!" big man steps back, not quite hearing things, "what did you say?" me "shoot him!" big man laughs, helps me catch Charlie, warns me next time he'll shoot him, I say there wont be a next time, leave my name and addy with him just in case there was further complications with the sheep (very nice man) and we go home having what was a nice day thoroughly spoiled by Charlie boy. strike three

I could write a book about his antics, the little toad :-) gawd I miss him
 
Lol jeanette - I remember my parents old dog being pinned down by a dustbin man by the dustbin lid whilst yelling at my dad to control his dog, dad laughingly replied that he thought the man had the situation under control, dog was called Bungo and was a right PITA! :D
 
When I was about 11 my mum used to walk my Staffy to school when she picked me up.

All the mums were scared of him because he is obviously out to kill being a Staffy and all, and most would pick up their children if he came near.

Long story short, one day he got loose, started doing 'crazies' round the school collection area, and then proceeded to grab a stuffed toy from a small child.

It took 20 minutes of people screaming "PICK UP YOUR CHILDREN!!" and an overweight man dive-bombing him to finally catch him.

It was honestly like something out of a film and a firm Christmas favourite. :D
 
Pup likes flower pots and old bits of guttering to chew. Said old flower pots = chewed, said old bits of guttering = chewed. Now pup (called Brodey, black lab) is looking for something new. Arhh, he says, a bit of guttering I haven't got my little knashers on yet, so gets it, and pulls. He gets a little reward, piece of the gutter is his! (meanwhile, I'm going, ummm should he be doing that? Mother in law who owns him is going 'aww, so cute')
Arhh, he says, he sees another bit around the front of the house.... off he runs, hear a crash, smash and splinter sound... followed by a tiny yelp. Pup comes running back, tail between his legs, looking behind him.
Yep, you guessed it, pup 14 weeks old, has pulled the majority of the entire gutter system down from the front of the house.... !
 
Not too bad compared to some...mainly linked to food...

As a puppy, climbed up onto the kitchen table and stole cake (visitors left a chair out, she used it as a makeshift ladder we presume, she's a JRT so no other way really), then got stuck on the table, took a chunk of plaster out of the wall beside her bed, stole vegetables from the vegetable drawer when the fridge was opened (also did this about a year ago, aged 12), climbed onto the coffee table and polished off a glass of milk, watches you when you're drinking from a mug, just in case you'll share.

Mine once ate a cornish pasty from a family's picnic - I was mortified. I tried to extract said cornish pasty from dogs mouth but it was too late! :D
 
She stole my dinner last week, a whole plate of spag bol :( also ran away to the fruit and veg wholesalers which is based on the same site as OH's farm and stole a lemon and on a separate occasion got in a delivery van which was just about to leave for a village 30 miles away, sat on the passenger seat ready to go...

She ate my custom made mouth guard once too, cost me £80 to get another one made :(
