Caren Krutsinger Poet Prose Poetry

I Am a Bad Dog Mama Today

Our new dog Buddy chewed one of my favorite sandals in half.
The next week he chewed another favorite sandal in half; not a pair.
I am out of sandals to wear now.
I taped one with electrical tape but it did not last more than six steps.
I thought he had chewed up one of my brand spanking new shoes this morning.
I ranted and raved, screamed and yelled, I was a horrible puppy mama.
I did not hit, because I know what that feels like, but I was a terror.
My husband said he would clear off the top of the refrigerator
So I can start putting my shoes up there.
Handy huh?

L Milton Hankins September 23, 2021 at 5:49 PM I think that's a splendid idea. Also, may I suggest getting all of the shoes nobody likes and nobody wears and lay them where Buddy will find them. LOL Next, I say wear the pair of unmatched shoes, too, unless they are both for the same foot. In that case, give them to Buddy. WOW, he will be so pleased! Caren Krutsinger September 24, 2021 at 1:06 AM I said to my husband give him the ones he has already chewed up and he won't. Not wanting to "teach" him to chew shoes. We don't have to teach him; he is teaching us.
