How Did That Happen?

Alex and I are serious sports fans when it comes to our football and baseball teams.

We love the 49ers and the SF Giants.  We got Harry a 49er stadium blanket for Christmas.  He loved laying on it to watch the games while the 49ers were still in the running.

The morning after the 49er loss to the Seattle Seahawks, we found the stadium blanket in dismal disarray.  Harry had chewed it to pieces.

Now, Alex and I are not really sore losers (there's always next year and all that), but apparently Harry does not like to see his team out of the running.

When Zoe, (our other dog) does something naughty or destructive, she won't even look us in the eye.  She will slink out of the room to avoid our censure.  She really appears to be remorseful and sorry for making a mess, tearing up that chair, and/or eating that prime rib right off the kitchen counter.

Harry on the other hand is quite proud of his handiwork and has no compunctions at all about his behavior.  How did that happen?  Ask Harry.  He will tell you.

Please keep in mind that these photos were taken in Harry's Apartment.  I would clean it up for photos but he likes it as is.  I assure you the rest of the house is not quite as rustic as Harry's Apartment.

This is my lame contribution to the 30 minus 2 February writing challenge put on by the lovely Nicky and Cheesy Mike at the "We work for cheese" blog site.

  1. This is hilarious. It would only be funnier if you were Denver fans and he chewed up a Denver blanket. THAT would be priceless!

  2. Prime rib right off the kitchen counter? Boy, Zoe has great taste.

  3. Oh, poor Harry, of course he was devastated, he's such a passionate dog.

  4. He blamed the 49er quarterback. I tend to blame the gods. I just don't desecrate the chapels.

  5. She's not that bad. Raw is fine with her saving me all that silly cooking time, Dufus!

  6. What I love, B, is that there is not even a hint of remorse. Harry does what he believes to be the right thing!

  7. Good ole Harry has his priorities straight! Henry would be slinking off in shame, just like Zoe!

  8. Poor Harry, he took the loss pretty hard. Good thing he wasn't rooting for the Bronco's.

  9. This was far from lame! I found this post entertaining.

    "How did that happen? Ask Harry. He will tell you." Best part.

  10. Harry has the right attitude, "I did it, so there!"

  12. KZ, I think you may be my long lost grandson from another long lost daughter! Your cool factor is just over the top!

  13. I totally get Harry's frustration. He probably lost a bet on the game to Zoe.

  14. Harry loses everything to Zoe, Jayne!

  15. Harry is a very serious character, Katherine. He doesn't take fools (or losses) lightly!

  16. He's a 49er fan, but lost interest in the Superbowl when the 49ers weren't in it. (I did too.)

  17. This last year was not the best for the Giants or the 49ers. Hopefully, things will perk up next season!

  18. Harry doesn't back down. I like that in a guy!

  19. "Harry", as Max says, "is a good boy. Zoe is NOT a good boy." He remains a good boy, but he can be a touch dramatic in his displeasure. Zoe, on the other hand, can maim with her love.

  20. Harry is a serious sports fan! And he has his own apartment. Our cats wouldn't appreciate that. The grass would always be greener on our turf.

  21. My cat tore up wall to wall carpet and the sides of furniture. I loved him to pieces but sometimes I thought about throwing him in the lake. He also hacked up hairballs on white silk sofa's and went through a phase of wanting to use my closet as a litter box. Pets are so fun!
