Hi Everyone,
For the past two years we have held a competition to find out who is our most mischievous lab!
Well i have great news - this year, for the third year running - we are going to be running the competition again.
We want to hear all about your cheeky & mischievous darlings!
From sock eating, knicker pinching, to an expensive taste in chewing - your labs can now be entered into the 2007 competition which we will run from now, up until the Get together in August, where the winner will be announced.
The proud winner will win a prize & special award, no doubt something they will be able to get they teeth into and chew!
If you think your lab should be up for the award, let us know why in this thread, and what we will do is add a poll whereby you can then vote for your favourite to win!
Remember - it's all for fun!
As we are running this competition a little later than usual there will be just 3 weeks to get all your entries in so get typing quick!
Can't wait to see the long list of entrants...i declare the competition open.
Good luck labbies!

Well, I think my 'darling' Fidgit ought to be put up for this mainly due to her expensive taste in chewing
She's only been in this world 21 months and in that short but 'interesting' time she has consumed the following:
1 Sat Nav valued at £400 - imagine me trying to tell the insurance company what happened (if I need directions now I just twist her nose or yank her tail lol) Vet bill for this little episode was £100
2 TV remote controls (including batteries) - We actually had to get rid of one of the tv's as it wouldn't work without the remote control So that day she cost us around £250 (pull left ear to change chanels and right ear for volume lol). Vet bill for this totaled £120
The left shoe of a brand new pair of Rebok trainers - a mere snip at £50 (no vet bill here thank god)
Oh and finally a £20 note which fell out of my purse and I didn't realise until I saw all the bits - thankfully the bank saw the funny side and exchanged the bits for a nice new one
So thats a total of £940 in 21 months - I'm soooooooo looking forward to the next 21 months lol
Yet!!!! the little minx has NEVER destroyed any of her own toys - if anyone can explain this mentality I would be very grateful

Bournville's got a thing about the right shoe of a pair........he's not at all interested in the left one!! I quite often find him trotting round the garden with a right shoe in his mouth!
When he was a puppy he chewed through the laces on the right shoe of my trainers.
Then he chewed the toe off my right walking boot.
I had this lovely pair of Sketchers sandles, they're sort of squishy & bright pink & were only cheap a few years ago, but they were so comfy & I lived in them for lots of summers. Not any more Bournville got hold of the right foot & munched his way through it.
I bought a new pair of shoes - pale pink suede with a sort of basket type heel & Bournville has destroyed the basket heel of the right shoe! I was packing for going away for a work meeting & he must have tiptoed to my bag, taken it out & then laid there chewing it!!
Him & Basset played tug of war with my right garden shoe & ripped it!
And now he's started on my black flip flops. I left my husband looking after the boys whilst I was out last saturday & came home to find the back of the right shoe had been munched through! In fact, I caught him with it this morning again (he pinched it from the door & had taken it into his bed) so I put them under the table & stood on the right one & he laid there crying!!
He also spent the whole afternoon a few weeks ago trying to get the right shoe off my Mum's foot. He tried everything from licking her foot, to gently nibbling it & when he finally got it he ran round the garden with it for about half an hour!
So, I'm left with all these perfect left shoes with no pair anymore!!!!
Well where do I start.
Ok here is one!!!!
Harvey my beautiful puppy gave me a rough time a few months ago. First of all we had to rush him to hospital because he ate something (which i will never know what it was) we nearly lost him.
Then after being at the vets he got kennel cough. Then a week later, my cats killed a possum and totally ate it but left the tail and kidneys. My OH was going to clean it up, however like all males they are gunnars!!!
I let Harvey outside for a wee, and he found the kidneys and ate them. Then he found the tail, which was about 20cm long. He thought this was great so he put it in his mouth and sucked it up like you do with spaghetti. It was totally disgusting watching this. This furry little tail was hanging out his mouth eeeeeeewwwwwww. Again I had to rush him to the vets, so they could induce him into vomitting. We got rid of the tail, I dont think he was happy. hehehe.

Dear me that's vile! Why oh why did the cats leave the kidneys and tail...
Oh Harvey, you look like you could never do anything so disgusting as that You look like butter wouldn't melt!!
I'm a bit lazy so I'll cheat and cut and paste but you'll get the picture...
~~~~~~(dreamy vibes)~~~~~~Oh, what a morning so far! I've changed my hours at work to allow me to get the home all lovely and tidy and clean, and spend more time with Rolo, so everything would be hunky dory for when the family return home at 4pm. Ahhh......bliss......rose-coloured glasses.........blah-blah....
So, having kissed the kids and hubby bye-bye, I excitedly got on with my new routine!! I had just finished mopping the floor, polishing the windows, and hoovering, and went to hang out the washing, all gay and frolicky. I unwittingly took my eyes off the lovely little bundle of fun for no more than a fleeting moment when I spotted her through the clean washing digging (again!! ), so I dropped the basket, clothes tipped on muddy grass, and chased her off the hole she had just dug, slipped onto my already creaky knee (ouch!) caked in mud, went over to inspect only to find much to my horror it was runny poo
so by now, I was so frazzled and cross I shouted a loud "NO" and "LEAVE" and tried to chase her into the garage, guess what? She went back to the runny-poo spot and started again! The little monkey! I picked up her donut toy and threw it at her and she ran awy from me into the house, caked in sh@t, all over my newly and rarely sparkling floor!!!
I went to pick up the aforementioned, and got it up my fingernails, and all over my trousers So, after cleaning up I went to say sorry to Rolo, and she hates me now she's scared of me coz I was such a nasty mammy and I threw her donut at her and she's shying away from me and giving me dirty looks I am not fit to be the mother of a dog And the washing's all dirty again, I started to cry but then realised how stupid it was, there are much worse things in the world (slaps ones-self)
Anyway, she looks like she's going to sleep now so I can start to get cleaned up. again!
Oh why did she squidge the runny poo?
Would console myself with the custard tart in fridge, but since I am hoping to become a LEAN LAB LOVER, I'm just going to nibble along the edge, and then put it back again
That's all. Just wanted a rant. Will she still hate me when she wakes up? Will she think it's all been a bad dream, if I change my clothes? Like Bobby in the shower? Will she? ~~~~~(more dream-like vibes)~~~~~~
...........so there's my contribution Pretty mischievous, huh? On that day I would never have believed she would turn out the way she has Not quite an angel, but she doesn't drive me to cake anymore!!
As some of you may know, our central heating boiler packed up last week.
Well the gasman came this afternoon to have a look and give us a price.
He seemed a really nice guy, came in through the front door, took his shoes off and came through to the kitchen.
Charlie thought he was nice too and wouldn't leave him alone so I had to shut him out of the kitchen.
Well the guy needed to go outside to look at where the gas meter was and went to get his shoes, and..................... Charlie had chewed them up!!!!!!!!
OMG I was so embarrassed and couldn't appologise enough. We've taken him on to do the job and told him to add the price of his trainers on the bill.
No bonio money for Charlie - again!!
