Answer 2

Boy, if I were ever on trial I certainly wouldn't want a bunch of these people on the jury! Let's try to take a deep breath and get some perspective here. You don't say if this is the only moment of weirdness you've encountered with your boyfriend. You don't say that he's ever abused your dog in any other way. You don't say that you think he's made a habit of lying to you. If any of these things are the case, then I'd say your boyfriend has some real issues and you need to carefully examine your relationship. But if this is a solitary incident, then here's my guess:

I'm guessing that your boyfriend was wanting to see if he could get your dog to chase its tail and put some honey on it to coax him. I'm guessing that the honey got on the dog's ear accidentally somewhere in the process. You probably interrupted his little experiment and discovered the evidence before he had time to wash it off. Then, when you asked him about it, he was too embarrassed by his childish stunt to admit the truth to you.

If your relationship has been good and he has otherwise been good to you and your dog, I'd let this one go.and chalk it up the the fact that once in a while we all do goofy, out of character things that we'd be ashamed to admit to anybody. But if this is one in a string of incidents or an example of a continuing pattern of behavior, I'd have to say you can do better, girl - and it may be time to shop around. But ending the relationship, kicking him out, or suspecting him of really kinky or dark stuff based on this incident alone is way, way over-reacting.

Answer 3

Assuming that the bottle of honey was not at a level where the dog could have possibly rubbed up against it (like on the coffee table or end table), and assuming that there were no trained monkeys nor other humans besides yourself or your boyfriend in the house at the time of the incident, and since you obviously did not do it, then your boyfriend must have....payback time....honey inside his shoes, or on the handle of his coffee cup, or somewhere else where he'd least expect it....and then you can deny it too.......hey, tell him the dog did it!!!

Answer 4

I say you are jumping to conclusions, first of all honey cannot hurt your dog ! dogs like it ! and do you know that the bf gave it to him ? no you don't, the dog it self probably smelled it and began licking the bottle and knocked it over. what ever the case it will not hurt or kill the dog or any animal. now if it was poison that was put somewhere that the dog could not get to,and that was on him then yea you would have something to be concerned about. good grief take a chill pill

Answer 5

OK, people, we are talking about honey right, as in, the stuff bees make? I don't see the cruelty. Stupid, weird and gross yes, but not cruel.
Wash the dog, it is not that big a deal!!!
The big deal is that he lied to you. Granted he probably felt stupid, weird and gross, but come on, it's not like he poured hot wax on him just to hear him scream. Does he lie about other stuff? Does he hit the dog?
You should make a joke out of it, say, "The honey goes on this honey (you), honey. And the next time you pour it on the dog, you are washing him." Smile and use a sexy voice.

Answer 6

You are right, it can be harmful to your Dog as it could send his Blood Sugar sky high, I hope you washed the Dog off. Next I would Kick the Boyfriend out on his Butt. You can not trust him. Not if he lies about it. I doubt the Dog did it, not if it was on the Table and out of his reach. So be sure nothing is with in the Dogs reach that could potentially kill him.

Answer 7

Honey, (No pun intended) your boyfriend is sick. If he did that to your dog and lied, you are very possibly in danger yourself... this is NOT normal behavior... and I am very afraid he will do other things to your pet. Follow your gut, ( I KNOW you see the red flags waving)...get him out of your life and never NEVER leave him and your pet alone again... if you live together ask a neighbor or family member to care for the dog if you cant be there to defend it until you can get that jerk out of your life... I think you are in danger. Men, - people who tantalize animals often graduate to abuse, secret kicking, hitting, pouring dangerous substances down their throats, and again deny they did anything.... Your dog is in danger....

Dump the animal abuser! Love does NOT hurt!!!!!!!!!

Answer 8

Sweety your so called B.F. is probably jealous of your dog and if he has tried to hurt you pet,most likely he will end up really hurting you dog..If i was you,I would of pour the honey all over the BASTARD..And to top that he is a lier,And once a lier always a lier..I would kick that BASTARD to the curb..I would like the company of my dog better than a lier and animal hater..

Clowmy

Answer 9

I would be worried about the things he has done that you haven't found out about. You can't possibly think this is the only time your "boyfriend" has done something to your dog - then on top of it he lied. He must take you for a fool!!!!! Why would want to be with someone that does wierd s.h.i.t. to your dog or an a.s.s. that lies???????? Let alone BOTH

Answer 10

It sounds to me like you have more issues with your live in boyfriend than a little honey on your dog. It seems to me like you want to be mad at him... I mean come on It's HONEY. He may have put it on him because it is funny when dogs try to lick it off or it may have dripped on him accidentally and when you approached him and overreacted he denied it. Who wouldn't???
I know in most circumstances we would just say I dropped some on him and he licked it off his tale so i put it on him again cause it was funny to watch him try to get at it.( it is funny... have you ever put peanut butter in the top of his nose or feet) But he realized you where furious and overreacting so he denied it .
OH WELL IT WAS HONEY.
GET OVER IT!!!

Answer 11

You said it all when you said you cant forget it... lying is lying! if someone is so cowardly that they cant tell you the truth when they are caught then consider strongly this... if you have children with this man can you trust him? If he takes the car for the day and tells you hes going to the park can you trust him? if the broad with the big knockers says his face was burried in them can you trust him when he says nuh uhhh wasnt me. 4 real if they will lie about the lil things they will absolutely lie about the things most important to you. Say nice game buh bye !
