Oh poop. For anyone who doesn't have a dog, this is the equivalent of realising your out of toilet paper before it is too late. This is quite possibly the greatest fear any dog owner may have, if you're caught leaving your dog's waste on the floor then you become public enemy number one. If it hasnt happened to you yet, do worry because it will. Its a right of passage all dog owners must go through, its a true test of strength, perseverance and creativity Screw it, you just end up using a £5 note.
7. Cyclists: Dogs Greatest Nemesis
Youll be minding your own business, walking along when a harmless cyclist pedals past, however, your dog lurches forward, nearly pulling your arm clean out of its socket and barks madly at the poor person who just wanted a little exercise. Seriously, what is it with cyclists and dogs?
6. The Consequences Of Letting Your Dog Off The Lead
When letting your dog off the lead youre putting the ultimate trust in them to behave and not run off never to be seen again. Fortunately, 99% of the time everything goes to plan, that 1% though? Thats the trickiest walk youll ever experience in your life as you try your absolute hardest to chase down the disobedient mutt (who probably went off chasing squirrels or deer) and put the leash back on them before they can do any damage. You just pray deep down you dont fall victim to being the next youtube star in the making.
5. Meeting A New Friend Or Foe
The tension that comes with introducing your dog to another is overwhelming at times. Are they friendly? What if your dog isnt? Do they bite? Do you mention Hes friendly? Will they bark and scare the children? Most of the time, the pups will happily bark and chase each other, while also discovering the secrets of the universe inside each other's butts. The that's that and all your tension and worry is for nothing, but you cant help but fear the day you carelessly introduce your dog to the next Cujo on crack.
4. Vacuum! Run You Fools!
You can never clean your house in peace. They dont know what this device is, they just know it makes a horrid sound, it is probably a monster that wants to claim the souls of the family and they hate it. You cant hoover your carpet without your dog completely freaking out.
