Wally’s Great Adventures (26).

Posted on by Live & Learn

hello friends, wally here. big drama at the kanigan house. first, a disclaimer, dad got scolded by mom and Eric about my posts being overweight on bowel & bladder movements, & that led to sharp criticism that dad is a poor puppy trainer. well, now, you should have seen the volcano eruption after that, this really set dad off, like i mean way OFF. dad, he who takes criticism so well, launched a volley of (as he likes to call them) factual retorts. “oh, here comes the feedback from mother & son, those with no blogs of their own, no guest posts, zero, like almost near zero contribution to wally’s posts, or wally’s training for posts, or any contribution to wally’s intellectual growth, all of this load entirely being carried by dad, more stress and anxiety added to an overwhelming load that dad has to carry. mom and eric turned silent after this cavalcade of munitions, which dad took as facts winning out again. back to the story. and yes, it’s about bladder movements. brother sully, 4 years old now, fully potty trained, emptied his bladder, not 1x but 2x on mom & dad’s bed (its moms bed when there is a mess to clean up). so the bladder “dump” seeped through the winter weight comforter, through the bed sheet & landed safely on & was soaked up by the bed pad. i have not seen mom that angry & dad told me she had it in her to come unhinged. ‘I’ve had it, 2 straight days of doing nothing but washing bedding, KING SIZED BEDDING. anyhoo, these days, my occasional little piles (or pies as dad calls them) under the kitchen table are looking pretty good right now. Dad reminded sully that he’s here for another 2 weeks, so if there is anymore bullshit, he’s going into solitary confinement (that sounds bad). Next update, christmas presents, which have been overshadowed by mom & dad’s bed being a potty. have a great night everyone. Wally.

  4. Oh no, NO! Now I truly pity the K. household. Cleaning up and washing SO much bedding, and from a ‚normally trained‘ guest dog too, is just the one thing to push you over the brink. And that at Christmas when everybody is overworked and often underwhelmed…. Oh dear, oh dear!
    But at least it‘s not you wally but the house guest…. So in that respect you are a lucky boy. But try to get your act cleaned up anyway. It will definitely make life easier for EVERYBODY.
    Adorable photos. Have a good nap and a great day. Give (especially) mum some extra love, she really is to pity. And tell dad to tell his other family members to shut up if they have nothing better to do than critic the K family….. I have a rule; if you‘ve nothing positive to say, just be quiet!

    1. This is exactly what Mom said. Exhausted post Xmas day and then THIS!!!!

    2. I wonder whether Sully just lost his control because he and Wally were so busy trading Kanigan stories, and he was laughing so hard, he lost it…

  5. (Something else: dogs shouldn‘t be on beds! Full stop. – and yes, my dog always chose the bed too, or rather my then husband‘s side because he let her….. so uncalled for advice but I feel quite strongly about it)

  8. that was a very long sentence, and I’m impressed, Wally! it seems you just can’t win, as the humans try to figure out how to manage, and decide who is the alpha in their group. you know that old adage, ‘too many alphas, spoil the group!’

  9. Hhhmmm …. Sully’s nose may be out of joint. Marking his territory on the humans bed is a sign of wanting to assert himself. No wonder Mom and Dad are angry. It’s a big no no!!

  13. Bad Suly, he’s watching Wally get away with potting in the house so he does the same. On the bed sucks. I won’t go into the description of my last doggie bed accident.Have a great day. Might want to shut your doors.

          1. That’s great that he can go overnight without an accident. We still keep a disposable potty pad down because our older dog will not go outside. The only thing the outside is good for is seeing what the lawn guy did outside.

          3. She was homeless and pregnant when she was found. She has trauma issues still. We give her a break. We’ve had her since 2017 and she’s just now totally given in to my love. She’s a daddy’s girl.

          5. This is not recommended by trainers but it worked for us when we had trouble training one of our dogs. Every time he went outside we would make a big deal of it and say good boy for going outside and give him a small snack. It worked, he started going out all the time.

  14. I’ve often noted – really! – that dog butts are cute because of the way the hair grows, but (no pun intended) I never saw much cuteness in what comes from them. Of course, we’re talking Wally here! They have to be cute!

  15. One of the most beautiful events for the New Year is Wally! Thank you for sharing with us. Happy New Year to you and to your family, Love, nia
