Animals, Dogs and Annoying: Poor boy

Poor boy

By Cone of STFU - 09/01/2023 21:00

Today, my recently-neutered dog has to wear the cone of shame for several weeks. The sounds he makes when he's being rambunctious are now augmented even further by the sound of the cone scraping and bashing against everything. I tell you, it's so much more annoying than it sounds. FML

Today, my dog was trying to chew on his bone, but he kept losing it because he still has to wear the cone of shame. He eventually lost it completely. When I tried to help him by picking it up, he bit my arm. FML

Today, I finally got the hearing aids that I've needed for years. My dog quickly learned that if he quietly sneaks up behind me and barks, it'll scare the hell out of me. It's now his favorite game. FML

Bad boy

Today, I've just moved into a new apartment. It's also the day my big baby of a dog stepped on a rock and began yelping when I tried to touch his paw. He "suddenly" felt better after I carried him inside. Now everyone thinks I'm beating my dog. FML

Today, my dog somehow managed to swallow a ring that my mother had bought me. Now I must carefully poke and search through each pile of dog crap I find in my yard for the next week. FML

Are you sure you're OK?

Today, my roommate and I were talking about how much better my dog has gotten at not peeing in the house, and how I was doing better at not losing my temper when he did. A few hours after this conversation, the dog pissed all over the floor and I screamed so loudly that now my throat hurts. FML

Today, I was discharged from the hospital after having scrotal surgery. When I got home, the anesthetic had worn off, but I felt okay. Then my dog jumped up at me, paws slamming straight into my nuts. FML

Today, my fiancé and I moved into a new home a few houses away from our previous one. We were excited about not hearing our roommate's dog howling non-stop anymore. We can hear him from the new house. Very clearly. FML

Today, my cat has always been rather antisocial, but after his first trip to the vet since getting fixed, he's become talkative, clingy, and goofy. I'd enjoy it, if not for the fact that he's nearly hurt himself several times because he keeps doing stupid shit. He might need to go back to the vet at this rate. FML

Today, my dog became scared of his own food bowl. He now barks for ages every time he sees it. FML

Today, I went over to my parents' house with my female, unspayed dog. I guess they haven’t had their dog neutered, because he tried to mount her. When I attempted to stop him, he knocked me into their stone fire pit, splitting my head and elbow open. FML

Buy the inflatable neck ring. Does the same thing as the cone, but a lot quieter.

It’s also a whole lot more comfortable for the dog to sleep and move in. The inflatable cone was the only way I could get my dog to sleep after her ACL surgery (she would not lay down with the regular cone around her neck).

I doubt it. It sounds very annoying and somehow, I can imagine high levels of annoyingness. Why isn't annoyingness a word? It's not the same as annoyance. It's the noun form of annoying. I had to override my spell-checker to get it through. Are you annoyed yet?

I’m sorry OP, I’m sure it’s not as funny living through it, but I’m just picturing the WOBBLE WOBBLE WOBBLE sound that laminated paper makes as your dog goes about its day and I’m laughing.
