I'm sick at home today and my work called to ask me about a project. The dogs were wrestling and barking so I put them outside for -- 5 minutes. :doh: This is what I found...

Exhibit A: 2 holes approximately 12" in diameter and 12" deep. Sidewalk covered in dirt.


Exhibit B: 2 dirty paws


Exhibit C: 2 more dirty paws...


Exhibit D: Dog #1
Name: Skoker Reilly
Age: 2½ years
Sex: Male
Breed: Golden Retriever
Hobbies: Tennis Balls. That's it.
Dirt located on his paws, forehead and bum.



Exhibit E: Dog #2
Name: Molson Jones
Age: 10 months
Sex: Male
Breed: Golden Retriever
Hobbies: Counter surfing, destroying squeaky toys, getting into trouble & being a mama's boy
Dirt located on his paws, head, ears, tail, bum, tummy and nose.



So, who's idea was this?



BUSTED!


AH-HA!! Dog #2! (side note: you can see his breath! it's cold out today)


"But mommy, I don't want my paws to get cleaned! This stupid sham-wow isn't going to do anything anyway, it's just the cheap imitation brand!" - Molson


He was right... the fake sham-un-wow didn't help. Off to the bath for both of these criminals! Take note of the amount of dirt coming off of Skoker's paws in the bathtub...:no::no::no:


The picture doesn't do justice to the amount of dirt and water that covered every surface in the bathroom!



Well, I'm going back to the couch to have a nap. These dogs obviously missed out on the memo that said dogs are supposed to make you feel better when you're sick! :doh:

 

[FinnTastic]

HAHAHA!! Silly dogs. Well, maybe now they will be calm and just rest with you.

 

[Florabora22]

Ah, the joys of cleaning up after your dog's messy excursions. :

 

[beccacc31]

I must say .... They look like they had a great time! I think it was there idea of a great way to get a bath. They plotted that while you were on the phone.

Molsen - "hey Reilly.... If we get dirty and dig up the yard mom will give us a bath".
Reilly - "ya know Molson... Mom is not feeling well"
Molson - "I know but she always feels better when she gives us a bath and then has to clean the bathroom".
Reilly - "Well.... Ok.... That looks like a great spot over there"
Molson - "Ok.... Let's dig"!!!!!!!

Savannah Mae thought she would have some fun one wet day...

 

[coppers-mom]

Looks like the boys had a lot of fun!
I'm sorry you had to clean up after them, but you are probably used to that.

 

[Murphysmom]

Those pics actually made me laugh my butt off. Mischievous little fellas, aren't they?

 

[AmberSunrise]

LOL !! Busted again but how can you get mad at such cute dogs?

 

[Abbydabbydo]

Awww, they are too cute! Great pics! I hope you feel better soon!

 

[ilovemydogs]

Well, it looks like they had a good time anyway.

 

[LuckyPup]

Too funny! The captions were great! Sorry you are not feeling well! Hope you feel better soon!

 

[Hiroko]

Oh I totally understand!! Such thing has happened to my garden because of Pochi too....

 

[paula bedard]

Great pics! I'm lucky, Ike's not a digger, but muddy paws are kinda a Golden trademark. What was the goal of the hole? Lost treasure?

 

[esSJay]

HAHAHA!! Silly dogs. Well, maybe now they will be calm and just rest with you.

You're right about that... they are both passed out cold at my feet now!

Savannah Mae thought she would have some fun one wet day...

oh no! lol


I'm so glad I caught them when I did, only after 5 minutes! It could have gotten a whole lot worse!

That bathtub looks familiar. I had to bathe both girls last night when their paws looked mysteriously like that.

 

[TriplePinesFarm]

I think you probably would have had less work had you went to work today!! LOL.
However, the pictures were fun to look at. You can't be too mad at a pair as adorable as they.

 

[olik]

well on the positive side you can plan a little bush here without digging.LOL

 

[2golddogs]

Glad you got pictures. Looks like they had a blast. It's hard to stay mad at such cute, "innocent" faces. Jackson did the same thing on a rose push I had just planted and watered. I only turned my back to grab a handful of mulch and he had already just about dug the entire shrub out of the ground. I'd say 15 seconds tops!

 

[3SweetGoldens]

Oh I just LOVED your post! I am SORRY....but they are BOTH just Adorable! I tell you, I have been through the same thing here at my house. The mud and dirt and sand mine bring in on just having a "potty break" is unbelievable!:doh:
I hope you are feeling better, you did need a nap after all of their little fun escapade! :smooch: TOO CUTE!

 

[davebeech]

well it looks like they had a jolly good time in the garden, how are the carpets heehee
