She-dog and her tempers

Jojo is giving us the headache these days.
1. She eats her warm shit and squishes the rest into powder form, leaving a messy pile on the floor.
2. She pees a huge puddle on the floor and in turn, we are running out of toilet paper.
3. She walks away when her food is ready-to-serve, eats a little after much persuasion, and leaves you thinking what is wrong with the food.
4. If she is not busy biting your toes, she must be somewhere else biting the toilet mat or her favourite table legs or even scraping paint off the wall.
5. This morning, she heaved a loud grunt and started crying just because I rushed to the toilet first thing in the morning without letting her out from her playpen. Ellyn saved her later.

After my personal observation these few weeks and whilst sharing this with ZQ, I kinda reflected on what she is up to now.

Despite being a canine, Jojo too, is playing politics.

The scenario is as such:-
After staying with us for 5 months, she now knows Ellyn is the mummy-loving-type, who gives in to her whims and fancies whilst I'm the evil stepmother who gives her stern looks and punishes her accordingly.

When I'm alone with Jojo, she's totally fine. She behaves, she doesn't cry when I lock her in her playpen and does not show me those attitudes. She's even a darling at times.I was even planning a night for the both of us during Earth Hour, star-gazing at the balcony.

When Ellyn and I are around, Jojo's mood swings swifted to a crazy, hyper one. Her hormones are turned upside down, she craves for every bit of attention, throwing tantrums whenever she likes, runs around the living room like a mad dog and so on.

Enough is enough, when I got the message from Ellyn today that Jojo actually played with her shit on her bed. If Ellyn is not taking actions, I will.

I swear I shall play with that little devil too, in this political battle. I can't wait to execute my strategies when I get home later.

Jojo, you'll see who wins. Heheheh.


Note: No worries. There's no need to call SPCA. Nobody's going to get hurt.
