Sassy Pug Gives Traffic Cones Taking Up Her 'Potty Spot' a Piece of Her Mind

If you have a dog and you take them for walks every day, odds are, you walk the same route mostly everyday. The odds also are that they do their business in roughly the same spots every time. It's fun to watch!

Until it isn't. Such was the case for one Pug on Wednesday, September 25th. When she went out for her morning potty break, she was appalled to find that two intruders had crowded her out:

Frank and Brenda are being a little too kind, I think. I vote they drag the cones in the house and chew them to bits!

There are two Pugs in this house: Frank, a disabled Pug who goes viral frequently because his wheelchair is really adorable, and Brenda, the grumpy girl in this video. Brenda, compared to Frank, is pretty chill. She doesn't get upset about much, and she doesn't even seem to mind that Frank gets a lot of attention from their parents.

There are two things you don't mess with when it comes to Brenda, though: dinner time and her potty spot. She's lived in that house for a long time, and she's gone potty in that spot every single day. By this point, the ground is soaked at least a mile down. So, when a couple of traffic cones showed up... Brenda had to say something! They better have been moved with all possible haste!

Why Do Dogs Always Potty in the Same Spots?

If you were asked right now, I bet you could name at least two spots where your dog does their business every single day. They're creatures of habit, and if they can make a routine out of something, they're going to.

Dogs often potty in the same spots because they recognize the smell, even if other dogs have gone there. They know that this spot is optimal for one reason or another: it's in a convenient location, it's covered in other dogs' markings, or that's simply where you've trained them to go.

In a situation like this one, what happens next will depend mostly on your dog: a boy dog would probably just lift his leg and go on the traffic cones, for example, while a mindful and demure girl like Brenda will just move a few feet to the side and go there. The cycle repeats: this new spot becomes The Spot, and then when the obstacle moves, they'll return to the old one. Brenda may forget eventually, but she will never forgive!
