Today, my 8-month-old dog decided to decorate the living room by tearing apart a rented college textbook, the reference guide that went with it, and part of a color therapy book. FML

Today, my dog tore up a single book from the dozens within his reach. That book was titled "How to Train Your Dog". FML
Today, my husband left our untrained puppy out of its kennel when he left for work. I got home and all of the baby books my parents just bought for us that were on the coffee table in a backpack were completely destroyed, along with the bag, and parts of our wall. FML
Today, my little Pomeranian dog got onto the kitchen bench by jumping onto the washing basket, the bookcase, and over the window sill, and ate my daughter's birthday cake while I was in the bathroom. FML
Today, I came home to find that my dog had destroyed my couch. The worst part? He buried his plastic toy bone inside the wreckage, so he clearly thinks this is his new personal sandbox play pit spot. I'm afraid to get a new couch and put it in the same place. FML
Today, my girlfriend's 2lb chihuahua ate 500 dollars worth of textbook. FML
Today, I got a brand new couch. My husband told me to keep our puppy off of it so we could keep it nice. She jumped on it, and as I picked her up to put her back on the floor, her claws dragged across it and ripped two of the cushions. FML
Today, I left the living room for 3 minutes to make a coffee. When I went back, my 4-year old had found a permanent marker, God knows where, since I don't own a permanent marker. She'd then drawn on her face, the carpet, wall, sofa, both dogs and as an added bonus the TV screen. FML
Today, my dog got his head stuck in a container, panicked, and shat himself all over the living room. FML
Today, after spending hours wrapping the presents for Christmas, I came back into the room to find that my dog had lost his toy, knocked over all the presents, and was frantically ripping at everything to find it. FML
Today, I came home to find my dog had learned how to open our fridge. He ate the birthday cake I was saving for a friend's surprise party, and to add insult to injury, he'd also apparently thrown the barely digested cake up all over my bed. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

One of those rare cases where the dog actually did eat the homework.

OP, this is super time consuming but it's how I was able to buy food in college. I never bought a single book because I'd go to the library, check out the textbook, photograph every page and then bring it back the next day. Added bonus of only having to carry your device and not super heavy books. Hope that helps you with not having to buy a new book.

You won't be leaving your dog inside? It's bad to leave your dog outdoors while your not home... Either way don't leave anything in the dogs reach

My 2 year old rescue border collie would take blankets, pillows, and shoes in the middle of the night, then he slowly graduated to eating my tempurpedic mattress while I was in the shower.. I just finished training him not to chew things that aren't his toys.

You mean 8-month old puppy. This is why we don't leave puppies alone in the house unattended.

My dog has been nicknamed The Shredder for similar reasons. Just take this as a lesson that you had to learn the hard way.

#61 not all schools have all the textbooks. My school (a UC) only carries books for the classes most people have to take (Chem, bio, stats, etc) plus we could only have them for 2 hours at a time, no renewing. I took photos of the stats book each week for that week's homework only, just so I'd have a copy of the problems long enough to actually do the homework.

Can't you buy new ones? They can't cost more than £30 right? Although if you live in America apparently it costs hundreds of dollars there, wow.

Could say the same to you, #45. You are a destructive filthy animal just like an other human, animal on this planet.

We have four dogs that track in whatever is outside. We just make sure to have a towel on hand by the door to dry them off. No need to wash them off each time
