Is this how my parents feel???

Okay so this week, I thought that I would let you know about my dogs and their moods. You know how some people say that their dogs are spoiled; well I think that my dogs are getting back at me for saying that. This week all Harley the boxer has done is not listen at ALL. (If this is what parenthood is like, I'm not looking forward to it.) I mean, she will listen to anyone in the house EXCEPT ME... Anytime I try to make her get off the couch she looks at me and has that look like "You’re not my boss, I don't have to listen at all." Typically what a seven year old dog does right. Umm I think not she is just a sassy meanie if you ask me. I know I sound like I have a five year olds vocabulary but that’s what she was at the time to me. Sporty the pit bull was the same way on Monday. I walk in the house after school and he was at the door to greet me the same as everyday but when I told him to move, he barked at me like as if to say "You are not the boss of me missy." I mean honestly you feed and water and take care of these dogs as if they are people but you don't get anything in return, well at least not until they want something, or did something wrong and are trying to hide it.( Really is this what parenting is like, cause if so I’m sorry to my parents.)


Another thing that Harley has done this week is eat things in my room that she is not supposed to. Harley likes to get Sporty in trouble and this week I have figured it out. Sometimes I will find that one of the dogs has gone to the bathroom in the house, something that they know is definitely not right. Well I figured out this week that when everyone is blaming Sporty, Harley is walking away or puts her head down. I never really thought about it until Tuesday when I woke up and there was my hairbrush laying in the middle of the floor with half of the handle eaten off. Well at first I figured that it might have been Sporty but then I realized that Sporty usually the one who is at the bottom of my bed sleeping but Harley used to like to eat things in my room when she was a puppy.  I’ve figured out that yes she does know not to eat things but she thinks that she can get away with it by sort of blaming it on Sporty. We’ve all done this. Blame the youngest dog for eating everything. Well that’s what I did but then I realized that Harley was walking away and Sporty was just sitting there. First sign of a guilty dog is if they walk away. So when I told Harley to come back, she went under the kitchen table, her hiding place. Thats when I knew I had a bad dog on my hands. It turns out that Harley had eaten the hairbrush. So I guess that blaming the wrong kid is bound to happen in many homes across America, it just so happens that this week I didn't blame kids I blamed dogs.
