Holy...Freaking....CRAP

[drbrainfreeze]

So I come home from work today and FI goes to get the dogs out of their crates...so I hear oh &%[email protected] $&*@...(this can't be good)...

 

Apparently I didn't latch the boxer's crate all the way. All of my wedding stuff is in the office, and of course, thats where the crates are for the time being.

 

SO this is what was destroyed (wish I had a pic for you all!!!):

(1) 5 OOT bags ($1 per) - easy to fix

(2) 4 Beach Mats from Pier One (going to try to find 4 more Friday - $1 per)

(3) The plastic boxes that I had my candles in, candles ok

(4) The bag that all of my raffia fans in - about 10 destroyed, putting a new order of fans in next week!!

(5) A box that the candles originally came in - think a HUGE box of styrofoam peanuts ALL OVER the place....

(6) An entire bag of glue gun sticks!!

(7) A small bottle of glitter lotion

 

and last, but certainly not least...

 

( MY BRIDAL BOUQUET :-( Not the 7 others that were in there....MINE!! So its not SO bad. He pulled half the plumerias out and the stephanotis...called Roberta from PlumeriasWeddingFlowerBoutique right away. I am sending it back to her tomorrow and she will fix it for me :-) Again, thank GOD for her. Wonder how much that will cost me....

 

Lesson learned:

(1) DON'T put your wedding stuff in the same room as dog crates

(2) Check and recheck your dog's crate!!

 

Hes the one on my avitar, the boxer. The Min Pin is a doll compared to him!!

OMG, you poor thing. I hope you weren't too angry with him. I think in a situation like that all you can do is laugh.

 

I hope the big guy is ok and that he didn't eat too much of it.

OMG! That stinks. We have a boxer as well (in my avitar too). He also has a crate for when we are not home. Anxiety on his part...went crazy one to many times. FI went through 4 sets of furniture prior to the crate. Just think....it could have been way worse! Good Luck!

ohhhh nooooo that is a very bad dog. I feel your pain. The day we were leaving for mexcio my dog ate 4 of my really big star fish. Thank goodness i had a few extras. At least you have time to replace the items.

Oh geez - that really SUCKS. My dog (since passed away) hated being in her crate and would tear her way out of it and then tear up the house. I'm glad the damage is all replaceable ... but that does suck about your bouquet (I bet he knew it was yours , lol). Luckily - you have time to get everything back in line! Poor doggie - I bet he feels bad about it. ;-)

Oh man, sorry about that! I totally know how it feels to have your dog eat your stuff...mine does it all the time. It's really frustrating but I'm glad most of your stuff can be fixed!

[drbrainfreeze]

Yes, god bless the 5 month timeframe!!! I always knew being a Type A would pay off someday :-) Yes, he knew I was mad at him but I gave him a big hug and its all good. But that first hour, man I would not even look at him!!! Thankfully things can be replaced and fixed, I have lots of time, and hes ok. I will have to see what comes out of the other end though....

Oh what a little monster! But he/she is so adorable you'll forgive and keep loving it.

Ohh dear...what a bugger! It had to be the big one too ..the one that will do more damage. Sorry to hear
I hope you gave him a good dose of S##% Everything can be replaced fairly easily so its not that bad. This will make you laugh....I had a friend who's dog ate their seatbelt in the car. Imagine that! *lol*

OMG! I am so sorry! You are very lucky considering how much damage it could have been I worry about this all the time and do not let my dogs go in the guest room AKA wedding room. Good luck fixing it all! Hopefully it won't cost you too much! Thank Goodness you have some time yet and it wasn't next month. Good Luck!
