Remember last month when Megyn revealed that Strudwick was making great strides to clean up his act? Well, Strud was in vintage form last weekend when he went on quite an adventure throughout the house that resulted in quite a bit of damage. We’ll let Megyn tell you what happened…
“This morning, we woke up and took the dogs out. All normal. A short time later, Strud had to go out again – and let’s just say it was clear to us he had managed to eat more than his dog food. But we had no idea how or where or when.
And then I stumbled upon this:
Clearly, he got into one of the kids’ backpacks. I’m not surprised, but it is definitely a setback for him.
Then, I made the mistake of thinking I could open the doors from the kitchen/mudroom/family room where we keep him and let in some of the light from the living room. If I open the sliding doors and put chairs in front of the opening (see below), he won’t go out when someone is in the room with him.
Well, I got too trusting because I did leave the room to have a catch with Thatcher and, when I came back in, Strud was gone. He was nowhere to be found in the family room, kitchen, or mudroom, which meant he was roaming.
Here was my first clue he went upstairs and had visited Yardley’s room:
Next, I ventured off to the master bedroom, where I found this:
As you can see, he managed to get both the vanilla coffee powder that I bring with me when traveling (which I kept in that zip lock) and a whole thing of mints out of my purse that he knocked to the floor. Those mints contain xylitol, which is very, very bad for dogs.
You know what that means… time for the trusty hydrogen peroxide/yogurt mixture to induce throw up.
We had been planning a catch and then a walk, but instead we are all on standby for 🤮 to make sure it happens.”
Editor’s Note: We received the following update from Megyn a few hours later:
“Update: He did not throw up. He is currently running around the family room playing tug of war with his sister Thunder. He appears to be totally fine.”
Oh, Strud.
