Sweet Boy Needs a Home

[THAT Gurl]

Sigh. This dog.

We are a bit cramped up on each other right now. The litter box is in the back bathroom. And that is also the only working toilet right now. Snoop follows me to the bathroom and lays down in the floor while I "conduct business". I have noticed that he is VERY interested in the toilet after I finish up and flush it. He sniffs it ... Then he checks out the litter box ...
Then back to the toilet ... Rinse, repeat until I call him out of the bathroom.

Can you guess what happened today?? Yeah ... My big o'goofball of a dog but both front paws up on the toilet seat and watched the water swirl into parts unknown. Then he looked at me. Then he looked at the litter box. Best I can figure, he was laying out his odds of dying. Because he gave that litter box another look, got down off the toilet and PISSED IN THE LITTER BOX!!

I bought this for the cats but am not gonna start trying to train them until things calm down around here. I can't take ONE. MORE. THING!!

I can't breathe! I can't tell if he's guarding the litter box or if he's afraid to try and go past her. Because she KICKED HIS ASS a week or so ago. Lol I heard a noise -- pardon me, I heard what I sure was reminiscent of the bombing of Pearl Harbor -- and got to the hallway just in time to see Snoop RUNNING down the hall with MissPriss firmly attached to his face. He's not a confident dog around cats any more. Lol

So the cats will use the toilet and the dog uses the litterbox?

Sounds to me like that dog is perty smart. Trained hisself to use the litterbox.

Now if the cats would just cooperate...

Oh no! If I have MY say that litter box will be a thing of the past in another month or 2. I LOATHE that thing -- but I love my cats ...

I wish I could figure out a way to get the dogs to use the toilet, too, but I just don't see that happening. Especially with Dawg. Bless his heart he is the spirit animal of Clint Eastwood. Lock, stock and barrel.

 

[OK Corgi Rancher]

I can find you a nice JRT that'll take care of that cat problem...quick, fast and in a hurry.

Poor Snoop...

I found out today that the neighbors to the north have a brand spanking new litter of kittens living in the cathouse on their front porch. 2 tabby domestic shorthairs, and 3 solid black. I might need a couple of black kittens. You know, just to have as mousers out in the shed.

Sounds like with a little help he can use the toilet. They are smarter than we give them credit for. You got an amazing dog handed to you.

That is the truth if I ever saw it. When he took his leak in the litter box (after I watched him put 2 and 2 together, literally right before my eyes) I figured no way you guys would believe me! For once I had my phone on me at the right time!! Him standing with 2 feet in the litter box, and 2 feet on the edge of the box, staring at a teeny, tiny cat is too much!
