Today, I found out from my mom that the sweet smelling shampoo she bought recently belongs to Tammi. I've been using it for a week now. The chocolate drops I ate yesterday are also hers. Tammi is our pet Chihuahua. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out that my mom uses my incredibly expensive conditioner to wash her two dogs every single weekend. No wonder they smell so good. FML
Today, I found out the crappy shampoo I've been borrowing from my girlfriend is actually "feminine wash." FML
Today, I had expired soda and stale chips for my dinner. Why? Because my mother spent all our grocery money on organic food for her chihuahua. FML
Today, someone, and I still can't figure out who, switched my shampoo with mayonnaise. FML
Today, I realized that I get turned on by my girlfriend's perfume. My mother started using the same one. FML
Today, I used a new body wash that smells like vanilla cookies. My dog spent the entire day chasing me around and trying to lick my arms. FML
Today, I was eating chocolate chip cookies around the house and saw a chocolate chip on the floor. Not wanting my dog to eat it, given that chocolate is poisonous for dogs, I swiped it up with my finger and put it to my mouth. It was then that I realized it was a stub of my dog's poop. FML
Today, my dog nearly died when my mom fed him chocolate. After finding out dogs are not supposed to eat chocolate, she promptly grounded me for not telling her. FML
Today, my roommate left a bomb looking package of cookies on the kitchen counter. My sweet tooth got the best of me and I made that split second decision of, "Oh, I'll just have one." Halfway through it, I noticed the fine print, "For dogs" on the package. FML
Today, my mom was proud for making a positive change in her life. The change in question? She now throws away the smelly hair she combs out of the dog, instead of keeping it for unspecified later use. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Dog food? And before they got domesticated, they ate meat. Sometimes they still do. Chocolate isn't a natural thing for dogs to eat... you're aware, yes?

... and you're aware that processed "dog food" wasn't popular in the US until roughly around the 1930's (and not popular in other places until as late as the 1960's), yes? Before that, dogs ate meat, bones, vegetables, fruits, miscellaneous table scraps, etc. I'm not saying that anyone should feed their dog chocolate, (or onions, or raisins, or grapes, etc), but I thought your comment was pretty amusing... To think that people 15,000 years ago were feeding their dogs dog food. :)

dogs used to eat whatever was left after the people had finished eating and were perfectly fine before all these special dog foods were invented

YDI for using/eating things that aren't yours. If I found chocolate somewhere, I'd ask around it if it belonged to anyone rather than just eating it without asking. People tend to get mad when you eat their chocolate / use their shampoo, even if it wasn't for your dog.

My chihuahua ate one of those bite size milky way bars a couple of months ago and nothing happened to him.

chocolate kills dogs

Chocolate won't necessarilly always hurt a dog. There's just a risk that it can. My dog at an entire bag of christmas Hershey kisses a few years ago and she was fine.

meh! I wouldn't worry about poisoning a Chihuahua with chocolate; I think they're technically members of the rodent family and not actually considered dogs...

Followup post (too late to edit): Supposedly chihuahuas are more closely related to rodents than canines: http://www.watleyreview.com/2004/052504-3.html Can't believe everything you read on the Internet though...

That's got to be fake. It says that Yorkshire terriers are descended from pigeons, too. And the article ends with this quote: "Oh, heavens, if they make it official that Chihuahuas aren't dogs, it would make my day," said Miami condominium owner Frances LaCroix. "I would finally have grounds to make Elsie Tabernathy get rid of her wretched little yapping pack of – rodents, did you say they were? Oh, that would be marvelous." That's a bit too ridiculous to publish in an academic journal.

YDI for not paying attention to what you were using/eating. The labels clearly say they are for dogs.

I see no FML here, it's not like she gave the dog your room or something? And there are some fancy-schmancy dog bakeries near me, and they barely label their stuff at all; you'd basically have to see the store for yourself to know it's for dogs. As for the dog shampoo, again, not an FML. Our dog needs a bath at least once a week, and the shampoo we use smells better and in some ways is healthier than human shampoo. Seriously, your mom is just taking care of her dog. So shuttup, your life isn't ******, you whiner :c
