This happened last night...
You know you're a crazy dog lady when...
- you wake up at 4am to a horrid smell and walk around the house like a zombie trying to find the source of the less than pleasant odor. As you suspected, you discover your very much housebroken dog has pooed on the kitchen floor. You clean it up, t-shirt over your nose and spray the floor with WINDEX because that is the only disinfectant you can find in the dead of night. You walk outside and put the midnight surprise in the trash bin and walk back in to wash your hands. Next its time to make the house a little more liveable and tolerable by spraying puffs of Febreeze in each room. Then you let the culprit outside for a few minutes, only he doesn't want to be alone so you gotta go outside with him. Thanks to the wooden deck and the bare feet, you now have one big splinter in your foot, the house still smells aweful, and it is still wayyy too early to be awake. A few minutes later you both trudge back in, and after closing the door you turn around to see your furry boy sitting guiltily in the hallway like a criminal that just got caught....and all you do is go over to your big, doe-eyed, embarrassed-by-his -little -mishap dog and throw your arms around him, kiss his head and say, "It's okay, boy, let's go to bed."
You both walk upstairs and lie back down to bed. Even though you are tired, groggy and grossed out, you can't help but love having the warm friend lay right next to you, and know even though it includes such "rude awakenings", you wouldn't, or couldn't, have it any other way.
----------------------end story.
So I know everyone else here would do the same as I did, but lots of people, including most of my friends, would be sooo incredibly disgusted by this that they would dislike the dog because of it.
