uggh, puppy potty training
Just when I thought the potty training with the puppy was going well she has the biggest, worst, nastiest, smelliest, accident to date!
I keep the front hall blocked off with boxes so Plinko can’t get into the front hall, the dining room, my husband’s office, or the 1/2 bathroom. She’s managed to get through on a rare occasion, and each time, she has either tinkled or pooped in the hall or dining room. So, for over three months, I’ve had ugly packing boxes blocking the hallway. Totally unattractive, but it definitely serves a purpose.
I’m not sure how one of the boxes got moved, but while my daughter and I were eating our dinner, Plinko quietly slipped into the dining room. She wears a rabies tag and a name tag on her collar so we can always hear her tags jingling together and we know where she is. Well, it got awfully quiet. I jumped up and saw the box was moved out of position and sure enough, standing in front of the front door looking back at me, innocently, was Plinko.
The smell hit me before I saw it, all over the dining room carpet. I don’t know what she ate but it came out like soft serve and was soaking into the carpet fast. My daughter was gagging just handing me the roll of paper towels! I spent 30 minutes picking it up, getting the piles out of the house and then using vinegar water followed by soapy water on the carpet. YUCK!
Thanks for letting me vent, I feel better now!
