I had just received a package from a BOTL here and still had to rearrange
my humis to make room so I set some of them on the table still
in the bag. My work phone rang so I left the room for 10 minutes and
when I came out, there was one package laying on the floor :-)
So I picked up my pace as I felt my BP skyrocket and when I got to the
scene of the crime I saw it. There lay piles of tobacco and my about to be
dead dog beating feet with tail between her legs.
Well I caught her and we had a 'round, drug her a$$ back to the scene
had another go 'round, and just to be sure she never lays paw on
another cigar, we went at it again.

Of course it was the best one that she tore to shreds. She only damaged
one end of another and since I was wondering what I was going
to smoke tonight, I lopped off the damaged 1/4 and went out to try to
calm down.

Man, my BP is still up there.

Rub her nose in the tobacco, that's how I teach my wife to stay away from my stogies:-)

Just remember, the reasons dogs are cute is so we don't kill 'em. My dogs cuteness has saved him many a time :-)

The tail wagging gets me every time!!!

Shoot me a PM with what you lost. If I can hook you up I will.

Likewise...

Thank god my dog hates the smell of tobacco. I could give my dog a cigar and it would turn the other way. Many times I'll be smoking, set one of his favorite treats next to me and he won't even come near me. He will wait until I'm done smoking before he will take the treat.

I'll send ya some replacement smokes or a new dog :-)

My old dearly-departed black lab must've eaten more collars, harnesses, bike seats, hand grips and pedal grips that I can count! He even ate an entire Air Force gas mask, leaving only the metal parts as evidence! Image The amazing thing is he lived on to a ripe old age of 17... but it was touch and go there, a few times! :-)

You didn't beat your dog over cigars, right? :-)
[Reply]

Sorry to hear that. My Boxer loves cigars as well. When he gets one of my stogies, I just chalk it up to me being a bit careless. Can't really blame them, I'd do the same thing if you left me with a bunch of stogies. :-)

Beat, of course not, I love dogs...but she is 6 and knows better, she did get a smack and a few good talkin to's though. :-)




Hey, thanks for the offer, but it was my own fault, just something I was looking forward to. :-)

I'm about over it :-)...and no more dogs!
[Reply]

Well...let us know what it was that she chewed up...maybe we can help you replace it...and you can still look forward to it!!!
[Reply]

This almost made me spit out my beer!

Sorry about the smokes.:-)

A friend left a Monte A on my coffee table a few weeks ago n my dog had a great time with it. He's got good taste IMHO. Got a good laugh all around the next day when my friend came by to smoke it.
I prolly smoke more cigars with my dog than I do with human companions and value his company as much or more than my Brothers, I'd NEVER give him more than a stern word for ANY indiscretion.

Nicotine poisoning in dogs can happen at relatively small dosages. 10mg of nicotine per kilogram of a dog's body weight can be lethal, and you'll see clinical symptoms at less than half of that dose. Just another reason to keep Fido out of your humidor (like you needed another reason).

My cat is my partner in crime. He will not eat or even chew on a cigar but if I am careless and leave one where he can get at it, he will shred the wrapper with his claws. No punishment, it is my fault if one is left within his reach.:-)

My 4 year old Boxer stays away from them, but my 6 month old boxer is a little more curious. He hasn't gotten any yet, but he did get a hold and eat the remnants of a smoked one. That wasn't easy on his stomach!
