Sorting out Rodney/Dog problems

[Scottow Horseshoe]

Mid 80's Abingdon, Crash and smash, boss has a collie that likes other brother Rodneys and hates erks...it also has a habit of peeing in crashbags, toolkits and anything else at floor level, makes a game of growling at riggers and generally being a four legged Tw*t.

Solution:

Afternoon before we go on the road to Scotland one of us call the boss' dog across with the promise of chocolate, in a flash the aforementioned choccy is gobbled up and the donor growled at.


Travellling up the M6 in a sherpa we watch the dog bouncing backwards and forwards in the rear of a RAF Cavalier looking patently panicky, suddenly the rear window goes BROWN!!!


Choccy treat happened to be a bar of EX-LAX, boss arrives at Carlisle, drives straight into MT, collars a poor SAC Driver and says "Young man clean this out now, will you?".............result, SAC goes to WO MT States his case and retires to the crewroom...boss finally ends up back at Abingdon the same day to a HUGE bollicking for taking Dog on the road.

Conclusion:

Make sure dog is sociable

Make sure blokes are happy with dog on the road

Make sure dog dislikes Chocolate

Learn your lesson the HARD and STINKY way

 

[Irritant]

Our squadron leader had a dog and used to bring it into work. A decent bloke and friendly dog.

We had a training cell that photocopied your face when you arrived on the unit at Waddo. Bit of a giggle, seemed like a good way to record the arrival on unit.

S/L was happy til one day his dog got photocopied.

He was not a happy Hecter.


It was only a little thing and he placed a little fence in the way to stop it escaping from his office. It took us weeks to train the little bugger how to jump over the fence.
