My neighbour is a policeman, quite a few years ago he was in the drug squad and brought his dog home with him. His wife went crazy the dog opened the fridge door and ate everything even Yorkshire Pudding batter. It was soon given an outside kennel and run

Tell me about it. I had an old, large, blue Persian that did the same trick. At the time I had 5 other cats and 3 dogs. The Persian would hold meat parties whilst I was at work. Between them they devoured the remnants of cooked joints - pork, beef, gammon - in a single week. I came home one day and the Persian ran past me in the hall. I had a subliminal image of something in its mouth so went after it to find the image was a packet of uncooked sausages. I went up to the shops and got a child-proof fridge lock, which was effective. Until I wanted to open the fridge door and nearly pulled my nails off. It only took about a month to get used to the damn thing.

After one of the fridge raids I noticed a few days later that the Persian had what I can only describe as a tampon string hanging out of its bottom. The joint of silverside had the butcher's string around it, well it would. After I had stopped crying with laughter I tried to remove the piece of string carefully - the cat went cross-eyed. I tried again, with just slightly more determination and the cat wailed. I gave up and told him that he had 24 hrs to sort himself out or he was going to the vets!

All things come to pass ...

Lol ttfn I was wincing when I read that.

But did you go cross-eyed, gran?

[Zacs-Master]

Ttfn. Very funny.

Another time my young Newfoundland pup pinched my Mattesons liver sausage - all of it.

The next morning I awoke to what i thought was a gas leak ... :((((

Lovely memories of coming in from work, find the lino in the kitchen all ripped up 1cwt dog biscuits all over the ripped up floor, 1lb of butter eaten and a lovely long haired GSD grinning at me, After that he had the run of the flat and behaved impeccably

Our late and very lamented beagle Caddy once ate all the chocolate decorations on the christmas tree-we never saw him do it just found all the empty silver papers still hanging from the tree. Made me laugh about the bad wind-mindst you, I'd put up with that to have him back again.

sandyroe - the whole incident confused me. My fridge does close on its own, but how he got in we will never know. He's never been back in there again.

ruthann - I hope Cassie is okay today. My first dog and I got invited out to a friend's house one night and he was fed garlic bread. It didn't agree with him at all and garlic doggy breath in the morning was awful.

I think that a tub of flora would upset anybody's stomach.

[ruthann58]

she is still farting and can hear lots of gurgling in her belly want to take her for a walk but its raining so hard at the moment we will get drowned so waiting for it to ease a bit before we go

[wolf63]

It was clever of her to get into the fridge - the least that you could do is put some meat in it.

I am going to bed for a few hours, it is cold and grey but not raining (yet). Merlin is sleeping on the printer and Frankie has stormed off up the stairs. It's like living with two toddlers.

Have a nice day - hope the wind settles, poor Cassie.
