AGH!!!! I'm puppy-sitting for my parents while they're gone to Jamaica & I am going insane!!!!
So we have Sofi, a 6 month old cocker spaniel, and Oscar a year old (I think) cocker spaniel. They are really sweet dogs usually (Sofi loves to play & Oscar loves to cuddle! he gives really good hugs) Until they come to stay at your house for a week!
They've been somewhat bad all week while my roomates were all home, but as soon as everyone goes home for Christmas & leaves me with them, BOOM, they turn into little devils!!!!
I had to sleep in my roomates room last night with the puppies because they're used to sleeping with my parents & will cry all night if left alone. (they slept with either Mat on the couch <boyfriend> or Nic <roomate> for the rest of the week) Well every little noise made Oscar jump up and start barking. Then Sofi would start & by the time I calmed them down & started dozing off to sleep again... they were barking again!! FInally at about 2:30 am Neil <another roomate> came home so I begged him to take them for the night. I had to get up at 7:30 for work! I get home from work around 7:30 pm (been gone for about 10 hours.. couldn't help it) & the house is TRASHED.
Shoes everywhere (including my brand new Nine West leather boots), paper ripped up, poop in the kitchen, pee in the living room, Sofi chewed through her leash, Oscar chewed through most of his leash, Mats socks were ripped apart, a Wendys cup was shredded, they opened their Christmas gift of treats that Mat wrapped & put under the tree (his own fault here) & ate the wrapping paper and most of the packing too....
Now it's almost 11pm & they're still hyper! I can't take them for a walk for a lack of leashes & they're going to making me go crazy!!!
Would it be horrible to lock them in the bathroom til my parents get back Monday afternoon? ;D j/k
