Cone head

I put the cone collar on my dog tonight so we could go to church and she just stood there in her crate. Her head slowly went down until the wide part of the cone was on the floor. Then she just stood there like that. It was like a Mummenschanz performance. It looked so funny, but we didn't laugh out loud because she was so dejectified. So I dropped off the kids at church and came home to sit with the dog.

Pitiful...

OK it made me laugh out loud but hopefully your puppy can't hear me. I know that dejected look our oldest dog had it down pat when he had the cone experience - it made me feel like a terrible parent. I would have done exactly the same as you by coming home to be with the dog - after all they neeeed us!!
