Today, no matter how many toys and teddies she has, and no matter how much I punish her, I'm most likely never going to be able to break my 10-week-old puppy's habit of stealing my underwear. She doesn't eat them or even chew on them. She steals them to sleep with. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I finally realized why my 9-week-old puppy was going to the bathroom so much. I went to pick up the food bag and realized she had chewed a hole in the bottom, and eaten half of the bag in the last 4 days. Goodbye 30 pounds of dog food, and 100$ for a vet visit. FML
Today, I went to the local pet store to purchase a large dog bed so my dog wouldn't sleep in mine. After I got home and set up her bed, I realized I forgot to buy dog treats. When I came home again, her new bed was torn to shreds, and she was still sleeping on my bed. FML
Today, I finally got my 18 month-old to throw away her trash and dirty diapers. Now she throws everything away, and I can't get her to stop. FML
Today, I bought my dog an expensive plushie toy because I thought it would last longer than the cheap ones. He ignored it completely and spent two hours playing with the cardboard box it came in. FML
Today, it turned out that letting my daughter watch '101 Dalmatians' backfired; our dog gave birth to two gorgeous pups but she can't stop crying and asking where 'the rest of them' went. Apparently she's been telling her friends all week that she'd soon have 15 puppies to play with, and now will never be happy again. FML
Today, my dog is terrified of her own puppies. I don’t know what happened, but when she’s near them, she shows a fear response pretty much constantly. For her to feed them, I need to be by her face distracting her while the puppies feed from her hidden under a towel. FML
Today, when I visited my daughter's apartment that she moved into about 3 months ago, I found out that she buys new underwear every time she runs out instead of washing her dirty ones. Her dirty ones have their own special hamper. FML
Today, I let my 4-month old puppy sleep with me. She’s been constipated for a while. I woke up to a foul odor in the middle of the night. Turns out she took a massive dump on the bed right by my head. I had to completely strip my bed to go back to sleep. FML
Today, my dog ate my underwear. This is the twenty-seventh pair that he has eaten. FML
Today, my 3-year-old said, "Mommy, I can share my teddy grahams with you." I said, "Thanks, honey, you're so sweet." And I ate a few. When I popped the last one in my mouth, I said, "Oh no, all gone!" She said, "That's okay, I have more." Then pulled the next handful out of her underwear. FML

Sew a bed for her using your underwear, and go commando. Problem solved.

We'll that means she always wants to remember you while she sleeps! That's kinda cute!

Why would you punish your puppy. She's a puppy and has so much playful exuberance. It's what puppies do. People like to control everything and everyone. Don't be so hard on the puppy. Maybe you should talk to a vet and get him to explain dog behaviours to you. Anyway your puppy steals your knickers cause it has your scent on it.

Take the underwear from her, put in something else, the same thing every time, with your scent on it, and give her a little bit of a treat (maybe a little piece of bacon and a belly rub). When she starts going to bed with the right thing, give her a bigger treat when she wakes up.

Dogs like things that carry a strong scent of their owners, that's why they take underwear and shoes. She is not going to like a teddy bear because it doesn't smell like you.

If you're not going to be able to break its habits at some point, then you are not qualified enough to own a dog.

Hey, at least she's not destroying them! My 12 year old dog still does this same thing with socks. She's even figured out how to open the drawer enough to pull them out. We just laugh at her and pick them up later.
