Stealing food that isn't theirs, trying to hump things they shouldn't and causing a ruckus at any social gathering – all you tin do is express mirth sometimes.

From peeing on things they shouldn't to throwing upward on live television, 13 canis familiaris owners share their most embarrassing moments.

Nicole, London

I have a chihuahua puppy who is always super-charged and once did something terrible on my friend's three-year-old in the middle of Starbucks. Yous can imagine.

He couldn't assist it, it merely happens if he'southward excited over attention, food etc. Information technology was so embarrassing.

The vet did say he would ameliorate after neutering but information technology never happened.

Jackson: 'Lamentable' (Motion-picture show: Ryan O'Meara)

My first canis familiaris Jackson was a legend.

1/ Humping a world renowned spinal surgeon, when he was on the telephone about an accident needing his help (batting off using Yellow Pages has no impact).

They both returned to the room after the call finished sweating.

ii/ Stealing a plate full of curry. The smells identified the culprit.

3/ Giving a Pringle dorsum to the gift giver when he decided he didn't like it.

4/ Destroying new shoes left out, only spotted out of the corner of the eye when being thrown in the air.

We were walking our family unit dog and he spotted a family unit having a picnic.

Before we'd even realised what he was upwardly to, he'd rampaged onto their coating, stolen the sandwich from their toddler'due south hand and was merrily devouring whatever was in their hamper by the time we even reached him!

Michelle, Bexley

Used to have a dog that would escape the garden to nearby field, roll in manure and then return and hibernate behind sofa, thus smearing the manure along wall and back of sofa.

A real care for.

My canis familiaris Bailey ran over to some lads playing football, peed on his rucksack then stole his Pepperami and ran off.

When I kickoff had him at one twelvemonth old, I decided to take him to training classes but he terrorised the other dogs.

They refused to have him in the normal class and he had to become to the grade for desperately behaved dogs.

Should have called him ASBO.

Christmas Eve, me and my husband were preparing for Christmas lunch the next day.

His family unit were coming over.

The perfect way to spend your New Year's Day (Mike Williams) When should you stop wishing people 'Happy New Year'?

Made cauliflower cheese but didn't accept any room in the fridge so clingfilmed it and left information technology pushed to the back of the counter.

Next morning, come downward to find Max the lurcher had enjoyed a midnight snack and had eaten part of the cauliflower cheese.

Not gonna prevarication, we mixed the rest of it upwardly and cooked information technology. No one was ill so it was fine.

Angie and Chesney (Moving picture: Angie Keay)

When I was about eight weeks significant and before I told anyone I was in a meeting with a colleague, Angie, and her dog, Chesney.

Although our pets often come to meetings with u.s., I'd never spent much time effectually Chesney, so I was quite surprised when he snuggled upwards to me.

Angie was a bit embarrassed and kept trying to remove Chesney, but he would just caress up over again.

When the meeting was over, Angie told a common colleague that Chesney had a history of snuggling up to significant women.

I announced my pregnancy a few weeks later, Angie said she was so glad she had told our colleague about Chesney's super-sense because otherwise no i would have believed her.

The hormonal changes must have made me scent different to Chesney.

I couldn't await to tell my friends and family; it'southward now my favourite work story!

Steve, Worcestershire

Growing up, we had an extremely naughty Staffie chosen Roady.

He would consume pretty much anything given to him but seemed to have a tummy of iron.

His first trip to the vets as a pup was because he had eaten an 18 inch long safety tube and needed to have emergency surgery.

Another time, later on a long day at work, my mum bought our dad a kebab for his tea.

Famished as he was, dad had literally simply put the fork to his oral fissure every bit the doorbell went.

The plate went downward, but Roady was (thankfully) on his bed.

In the fourth dimension it took my dad to respond the door and come dorsum through the hall, Roady had complete obliterated the plate full of food.

Dad said it was even funnier because of the way Roady's legs were moving faster than always simply they just slipped on the rug in cartoon fashion.

We went on This Morning with our 4 Chihuahuas debating why we let them sleep in our bed.

All was going really well until one threw upwardly. Mortified!

Chris, Oxford

Our old dog was too lazy to walk from the living room to the dorsum door so he used to jump in and out the living room window.

This was fine until he forgot where he was and jumped out of my sis's second floor window.

Luckily he managed to land on the roof and sat there shaking like a leaf until nosotros were able to get a ladder and rescue him.

Kristi, Midlands

My Labrador Holly was a bit of a hooligan when she was a pup.

I was walking her in one case and she spotted a class doing a bootcamp style workout in the next field in the centre of doing press ups at the fourth dimension.

Holly thought it looked like neat fun and charged over jumping on tiptop of the people doing the press ups.

Most of them laughed but the leader in the military style outfit didn't wait amused.

Lola once stole a canteen of water from a grouping of people enjoying a lovely picnic spread in Victoria park in the summer.

Barkley once stole a football from a grouping of young boys playing football in the local park.

He punctured it with his teeth so my dad had to give them a tenner to get a new ane.

And so yeah, my dogs steal stuff.

And sometimes the owners are just as bad…

I was taking my canis familiaris to his monthly veterinary appointment and left myself plenty of time for the journeying (it's a Friday night, blitz hr etc).

I arrived at my destination pleased at that place was very fiddling traffic and we had plenty of time to spare – too much fourth dimension in fact.

Anyway, because I'm early I effigy I'll take him inside in the hope they could possibly see him earlier than scheduled.

We walk into the familiar, cosy, little waiting room thrilled to find information technology empty and blindly ignoring the confused looks and furrowed brows of the receptionists.

Up I go with a cheery 'Hullo, I know we're early but…' to be greeted by a wall of silence.

Nevertheless the penny didn't drop.

Non until the massive grin face up of my very own GP appears around the corner practise I realise I oasis't taken Bucky the 15 miles to his vets merely taken him the four miles to my own doc'southward surgery.

I just about managed to stutter 'Oh bollocks' before beingness escorted dorsum to my car by my GP who is practically on his knees laughing.
