The biggest mess my boxer has made is....

[elvis_baby]

Imagin the state if we left all our boxers together in one house!!!:eek:

When Elvis was a pup we used to lock him in the kitchen and one day i went home to let him out, however he has pooped a number of times (must of had bad tummy) and proceeded to walk it all over the floor and up all the cupboards on the towels...fridge everywhere you can imagin!!!

I was late back to work and stank of bleach afterwards! Luckily a few months later (waited for elvis to be house-trained) we had a re-fitted kitchen and floor!

the biggest thing started a few months back they figured out how to get the couch cushions off and then open the zipper up and take out the stuffing.

Shelby used to do this. On our new couch the cushions velcro down so this is no longer a problem. I had to keep turning our old ones so the bad part was to the back!

Perfect timing for this thread... (sorry,a little long)

Ok, here goes….Last night we went out shopping. We left poochy in the kitchen. (We have a gate that restricts her to the kitchen area only). She's been pretty good lately, we can usually leave her for about 4-5 hours with little worry, well except that she will eat any and all paper that she finds. Anyways, so we're gone for about 3 hours. We come home, the gates open, Shelby is no where to be seen. I'm almost positive that I made sure the gate was shut when we left. We look around, no poop, no pee….GREAT! Tommy goes upstairs and yells, "HONEY, COME UP HERE NOW! WAIT TILL YOU SEE THE (BLEEP-"ING") MESS THAT SHE MADE. OH MY GOD THIS IS SO GROSS!!!" My worst fear is she pooped and peed in our bedroom, I'll be sleeping downstairs if that’s the case. I go upstairs and there is a "trail" of femine products, couple of different kinds….use your imagination, going from the bathroom into our bedroom by the tv, full of cotton and green plastic. She had eaten a "used" pad and chewed my "used" tampon applicators!!! GROSS! Luckily there were no stains on my carpet. She had gotten every last drop. Now, that was bad enough right? Actually, after I picked it up I laughed, cause what else was I gonna do? She also has a thing for my dirty underwear by the way. Ok, so now we've vacuumed and everything is OK. I take out my contacts and get ready for bed. I go to get my glasses to watch some tv and guess what? They're no where to be found. MSO says, "gees honey, I hope the dog didn't get those too!!!" Now my stomach is turning. We flip the bedroom upside down and find them…..chewed, scratched, bent, you name it. My worst fear is confirmed. I was so upset with our dog I couldn't even look at her, never mind yell. The whole maxipad-tampon thing I could handle, this I could not. So this morning I had to go to the eye doctor and $145 and a week from now they will be fixed. GRRRRRRR!!! I swear its worse than having kids

That wasn't such a short story huh? Hope it made you laugh, cause it made me cry.

Casper was the one that made the biggest mess ever. He'd pooped in his crate as a little pup and it was everywhere, all over him, the bars, the floor, it had even managed to find it's way half way across the kitchen floor :(

I laugh about this every time I think of what we walked in on. When it was just Abbi, she got mad at us one time when we went out with friends. She was only home for about 4 hours on her own and we came home to this:
* She pulled all of the yarn skeins out of my knitting basket and looked like she took a couple of laps around the coffee table and living room with them,
* Chewed two boxes that held my toasting flutes for my upcoming wedding and broke one of the stems (she later broke the other one too...),
* Ripped the cover off of a paperback book and chewed the LAST 5 PAGES OF THE BOOK so I'll never know how it ended..., and
* Chewed my favorite scarf!!

She was sitting at the door when we got home, amid all of this mess, looking at us like everything was fine. If I wasn't laughing so hard at all of the mess that she made, I would have been furious. I guess she didn't want to be left home that night...

Tazz seems to make a mess everyday when he is left alone and we all go to work (both my mom and dad have jobs, but its even worse because even i have a job now). So every evening when we come into the house tazz has peed and sometimes pooped in the living room, and chewed everything he gets his hands on, one day was particularly worse.
Tazz got locked in mom and dad's bedroom, he struggled to get out but of course he couldn't as no one was home to let him out, when we came back in the evening there was poop all over the floor on the walls on tazz himself, the broom,books,phone diary and random papers were shredded the bed was pee soaked, and the whole house stank of dog feces. Poor mom puked when she came home in 5 min.

Sable is our destroyer and once she starts Woody joins in. Last weekend she got a stress ball and one of those nylon scrunchies that you shower with and shreded it all over the living room. She has eaten all of the dog beds in the crate room after she penned our eighty pound Shepherd in her forty pound dog crate. That was hilarious but I felt bad for our Shepherd.

Woody shredded two king sized feather pillows. The funny part was that when we came home Woody was doing his Boxer wiggle. He was so proud of himself. Our GSD however was covered in feathers because of her long hair and was doing that guilt slink. It was so funny. We were waiting for Woody to hiccup feathers.

We had a 90# rescue Boxer named Tank who we discovered had separation anxiety after we left him the first time. He chewed his way out of a Vari-Kennel and destroyed all the plastic. At this point it was hard to tell that it had once been a kennel. Then tried to dig his way out of the room. The rug had to be taken out. He chewed the door knob into a perfect square. Then he tried to eat the door framing. When that did not work he started on the dry wall. We had a open invitation at the local kennel to drop him off any time we were leaving the house. We did have to pay them. This is some of the costs that go into fostering a rescue that adopters sometimes do not understand. We never recoup this money. All of that came out of our pockets. Home owners does not cover any damages done by a dog. BTW, this dog was successfully placed and the woman was aware of his separation anxiety.

And a final sidenote - Homeowners also would not cover our tv. Our GSD got caught in the cable wires to our 20" bedroom tv one night and pulled it off the dresser. It sounded like someone drove thru the front of the house. Fortunately, the dog was not harmed but the tv was dead. Homeowners said that if we had told them that we had knocked it over it would have been covered but any damage done by a dog was not covered.

My boys learned how to turn open the lazy susan (turn table cupboard). In that cupboard is all my baking supplies. They had brownie mix, flour, sugar, jello, baking powder, frosting,cake mix and all the other little supplies all over them and my kitchen!!!!!!!! It took forever to clean up them and my kitchen.
They have also taken our childrens halloween candy bags off the counter and scattered them all over the house. I was finding candy forever!!!! Our kids said it was like trick or treat all over again, only at home

Well Hank for some reason likes to chew holes in my walls! He was really bad for it when he was a year old, now he doesn't do that anymore. His last major mess was a 30# box of cat litter. We have 18 stairs coming up into our apartment, and all 18 of them were covered. Even the sun room had it everywhere. We swept it up for days! I do believe those were the worst incidents.LOL
