Oh yeah, they’re adorable and seem like a great addition to the family, but do not be fooled, puppies are a lot of work and will try your patience in every way!
Even more than you think your children do.
I’m dead serious.
Charlie Pasta turned six months old on December 1 and after having a puppy for four months, here are the top 10 reasons I might be regretting it:
10. He digs holes in our backyard.
9. He brought me the remains of a mouse and then licked my face.
8. He continues to wake me up at 12:30, 2:30 and 4:30 with a cry worse than a newborn baby’s wanting to go out to pee or just walk around the yard for no apparent reason. Oh, no wait, there are shadows to bark at.
7. He’s jumps when I walk by him and at the jingle of keys presumably because he thinks it’s his leash and wants to go for a walk and then when I do take him for a nice long (almost 5 mile) outing along the beautiful beach, stopping to let him potty, drink water and take in the fresh ocean air, the minute we get home he looks me straight in the eye and then proceeds to pee on my carpet. If that isn’t the ultimate F-You, I don’t know what is.
6. While I was in the bathroom the other morning and left him alone for less than three minutes, he destroyed a pile of Lucas’ art projects.
5. He attacked my beloved olive tree.
4. His toys are squeakier, louder and WAY more annoying that anything Lucas has ever played with.
3. Despite (almost) daily dental care, his breath stinks all. the. time.
2. Although he has never chewed a pair of shoes, Lucas’ toys or our baseboards (knock on wood), look what he did to our vacuum cord!!
And the #1. Why puppies absolutely suck: He has weaseled his way into our family and stolen our hearts.

Hilarious!!! But I didn’t expect less from you! Great post!
Just wanted to add that the mouse part nearly made me sick! Yuck, yuck, yucky! Wait until he goes and rolls himself in something really smelly š
Aw, naughty, adorable, I want to hug his face, Charlie Pasta! Happy 6 months old!
Oh, puppies! Yes, they are a lot of work – and can be trying on the nerves – but they are so adorable. And yes, they quickly become members of the family!
Oh, you nailed it! They are just so.hard.
And so damn.cute.
Oh my … If you had led with the picture of him, I wouldn’t have been able to concentrate on all that other stuff.. He’s soooo cute!
My puppy (I use the term loosely lol) is 18 months old – and we’re finally getting some relief from puppyhood.. though, he still wakes me up randomly in the night (mostly if we go to bed early tho).
But it definitely does get better.. and easier.
He is an adorable puppy!!
We are a petless household… it makes a it a lot easier on us! We did have a dog but we’re so busy that we’re not home enough to give it the attention that it deserves.
Aw sun a cute post, and totally confirmed for me that my 2 year old is way too young for a puppy yet!!
He certainly is one photogenic sucker too, huh?!
Ah, the joys of owning a puppy.
I know all about them.
If it makes you feel any better, they do calm down.
Eventually.
