tdierikx Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 LOL!! What a great thread - I can indeed relate to some of these ... does anyone else tell wayward, wandering ,shopping trolleys to "Stay!" ? *looks around sheepishly* Yes... T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dogbesotted Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 whenever someone at works brings in their 'newish' baby, I have an overwhelming urge to rub the baby's stomach! :laugh: or worse comment that the bub has a lovely temperamnet.. H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hortfurball Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 OH told me to stop patting him last night I had been absentmindedly stroking his head cos his hair felt nice. You know when the hair is kind of shortish (#4 that's grown out a few weeks) and just feels nice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simply Grand Posted May 20, 2012 Author Share Posted May 20, 2012 Hahaha horts, I'm ALWAYS absently stroking whichever dog is lying next to me! I don't have an OH to do it to but I'm sure I would do it too. And I hope that when/if I have kids people tell me they have good temperaments and are well socialised! I shall have to look into the lines of the potential dad to make sure they compliment mine ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lhok Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I've nicknamed my 10 month old daughter the Labrador as whenever I have food no matter where I am she comes over and looks up at me and the food with pleading eyes. If I ignore her she pushes closer and watches the food while I am eating it. I have also caught myself calling her name and when she responded and headed over to me I have said in a high happy tone "Oh what a clever girl you are". Oh and the other time I got all confused between "bubby" and "puppy". I'm not crazy I am just sleep deprived :laugh: --Lhok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minimax Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I was moving house the other day, and I clicked my fingers and pointed towards a room where I wanted a removalist to put a box. I "click and point" at my puppy when I want to get her attention and direct her somewhere (which is actually left over from my horsey days lol) and nearly died from embarrasment when I realised I did it to the removalist guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redangel Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 I plan my general menus so to allow for extra servings for the dogs, carefully omitting those ingredients dogs are sensitive to. Tonight was a no scraps night, just a raw/dog food/veg mix...the looks i got as I set down dinner was almost despairing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simply Grand Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 Another one, I was just quite excited to realise that even though I'd accidentally put the toilet roll on the holder, it's still intact several hours later! Toilet rolls have spent the last month or two on a shelf out of Quinn's reach so they didn't get instantly destroyed, maybe I can now return to the small luxury of normal toilet paper dispensement...

W Sibs Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 Got in trouble the other day when I got annoyed with my friend's kid and order the kid to get into the crate... I often praise Mr CW for being a good boy after he gets me something I pat everything too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
