Delilah-2, Misto Can-0

February 25, 2013 By Jodi

Delilah loves oil.

I don’t know why.  Maybe she was a masseuse in her previous life or maybe she scrounged for food at McDonald’s, all I know is she LOVES oil

She’s not discriminating either, she loves all oil.

In this house you cannot put a pot of water with oil for pasta on the stove, because she WILL drink it.

And her love of it is well documented.

Salmon Oil

This was the Salmon oil she stole off the counter and carried into the living room, where she destroyed the can.  On a hot and humid day if I don’t have the air conditioner on, my rug still smells like fish.

Thank you Delilah.

Two years ago for Christmas my youngest daughter sent me some homemade bath scrub.  It was made with sugar and oil.  It’s almost impossible to use, because Delilah loves it so.

Yes, I caught her antics on tape.

(I’m sorry, for some reason I could not get the youtube video to load in the blog, you’ll have to click the link.  Please remember this is a video and you can’t actually help her.  It’s always my instinct to help her as she is so determined.) 🙂

Yesterday I ran out for a couple of hours and forgot to put my Misto can away.

Hubby found it in the living room when he got home.

Delilah – 2, Misto Can – 0

What kind of mischief have you been up to?

    Good mischief! At least some oil is good for dogs. Brooks likes to take his fish oil pill, he chews it right up. And I’ve heard a lot of good things about coconut oil.

    There is a whole checklist of things I have to do before going out and leaving the dogs alone. Fortunately I don’t have to worry about oils and bath stuffs!

    Our mom leaves us in the sun room when they aren’t home so we can’t get into things! She had some things come up last week and didn’t get to do her FUF post 🙁 But we will make sure she has time to do it this Friday!

    Oh no, too funny. How do dogs get weird obsessions anyway?

    Oh my goodness – that is hilarious!!

    I think it just proves the point that all dogs are individuals!

    My cat Bert is like that only anything edible or even non-edible is fair game. He destroys stuff all the time and mom gets so mad! Us dogs don’t usually wreck anything.

    LOVE THE VIDEO!!! I enjoyed watching Delilah trying to figure it out for herself. Kinda like watching Ducky figure out the Kong Wobbler the first few times I put her food in it.

    No time for posting my own stuff today — have to figure out this week’s meals & then go shopping for the food, a new mop, and a sling with which to help Callie up & down the steps/into & out of the car.

    That is one persistent Miss! Higher shelf perhaps 😉

    Bwa ha ha. She’s certainly determined.

    I read a book this weekend about a guy who ran his truck on veggie oil that he stored in a garage. One day, his dogs got into it and managed to slicken every part of the house.

    So count your blessings. A couple misto cans are much less of a mess. 🙂

    I remember that video! I guess I am glad Storm is only fascinated with coffee, (and usually gives up before actually getting to it…lol).

    It’s always so strange what a dog will obsess over. Your guess about her past lives is as good an answer as any, but I’ve never had a dog with an oil fetish.

  15. Flea says

    February 25, 2013 at 12:52 pm

    Hilarious! This is a dog obsession I’ve never seen. So sad about the Misto, though.

  16. Kristine says

    February 25, 2013 at 1:27 pm

    Awesome. I can’t believe she even drinks from a pot on the stove! Her counter-surfing puts Shiva to shame, not that I am complaining. Gotta laugh at a dog with a mission. What does Sampson think of all this oil love?

    WE lick Bath Oil off mom’s legs. It tastes like MINT…

  18. Genevieve says

    February 25, 2013 at 2:23 pm

    Yum. Oil! I think it would be delicious! Mom lets me lick the butter knife, sometimes. That’s kind of like oil. I sure do wish she would get some of that bad smelling salmon oil. I bet that’s delicious.

    Love and licks,
    Cupcake

    I have never heard of that one before but it is seriously one of the funniest things I have EVER heard!

  20. Jen K says

    February 25, 2013 at 4:40 pm

    Funny! I’m surprised she even gets the scent through some of those containers!

  21. snoopy@snoopysdogblog says

    February 25, 2013 at 6:00 pm

    Hmmm, I haven’t tried oil, but I guess there’s still time?! Tee Hee

    Btw, we use a widget called viper’s video tags (or something like that) on wordpress to play the youtube videos as we used to have problems uploading them, have you tried that?

    Have fun, loved the video

    Your pal Snoopy 🙂

    My Rita LOVES oil too. If for some reason she ever doesn’t want to eat her dinner, I just put a few drops of olive oil on top, and she’s all over it.
    So glad Rita can’t reach a pot on the stove! That’s some serious mischief.
    The tub vid is tooooo cute.
    Happy MM!

    What is her deal? I swear Delilah and Leroy would make a great couple, except Leroy likes butter over oil!

  24. Kat says

    February 25, 2013 at 7:59 pm

    That’s like my Beamer and food. At least Delilah must have had a nice, shiny coat after getting into the fish oil! 🙂

  25. Jen says

    February 25, 2013 at 9:18 pm

    Loves OIL? Oh how funny! I mean, Elka does like the oil that we add to her food, but not THAT much 😉

  26. Mary Ann says

    February 25, 2013 at 10:59 pm

    Now I’ve heard of everything, Jodi!!! Funny.

  27. Kolchak, Felix & Jodi says

    February 26, 2013 at 2:20 am

    Oh Delilah! I got a good laugh out of this one! AMAZING. Kol’s bad…but he’s not THAT bad. **giggles**

  28. Basil says

    February 26, 2013 at 10:05 am

    O bless her!

  29. Gizmo (@GizmoGeodog) says

    February 26, 2013 at 7:22 pm

    Love the video! She’s so determined…not sure what Misto is? is it a cooking oil?

    • Jodi Stone says

      February 27, 2013 at 1:06 pm

      It’s a can you put oil in and there’s a pump that adds air to the oil so you can use it like Pam.

    Oh… the salmon smell :-0 Our dogs have a thing for lotion and cologne. And perfume samples in the magazines. Thankfully, no counter surfers here!
