Listen to your dog....I didn't!!
« on: July 05, 2006, 11:38:47 am »
We took the boys out wake-boarding this morning and normally the dogs LOVE!!! to go in the boat.  Chester usually fights to be the first one on board.  This morning, though, he balked.  Cowboy got in, and Chester just sat on the dock and refused to move.  We tried cookies, treats, and he just refused to move.  After struggling for about 5 minutes to get him on, we finally muscled him in and started our run out to the middle of the lake....where Chester leaned over in to my lap and vomited!  OH SPECIAL MOMENT!  If he's so smart, why didn't he vomit over the side???  WHY IN MY LAP!???  I grabbed a beach towel to clean it up but by then all the kids were gagging!!  ARRGGGHHHH!! 

He then whined most of the time which is totally out of character for him.  Since all the guys were going back to LA this morning, it was a short run....thank heavens.  As soon as we got back to the dock, Chester lept outof the boat and ran to where he could go poo...right in the middle of the trail back up to the cabin!

He did do everything he could to tell us this was NOT a good morning for him to take a boat ride  ::) ::) ::) ::)!

hahaha!!!  You are nicer than I am!  I thought it was the middle finger for forcing him to do something he didn't want to do!  He wanted breakfast FIRST! and then a boat ride!!!

hehe...I'm picturing him with a middle finger now.  Too cute!  I'm sorry you had a nasty boat ride ... guess we do need to learn to listen to them!
