We all can come up with different excuses for missing a practice session.
Yesterday I couldn’t practice because the dog ate my pic 
Any other good excuses out there?

My dog got my Fender Mustang Micro. Still works, but have to jiggle the headphone jack. It was sitting on top of my amp where she can easily reach. Guess I need a bigger amp?

I have 6 rescue dogs (had 22 at one time) and they insist on surrounding every inch of available floor space around the foot of my chair making practicing a challenge, although at least one of them could come in useful for adopting a classical style and I wouldn’t have to buy a footrest

Brian: Know any good patent lawyers?
Adrian: You are a tough task manager
Hobart: Almost lost a mouthful of coffee, couldn’t help but visualize plugging in the cable had she swallowed it 
Karl: My little guy like to lay on top of my foot - makes foot tapping problematic
JWC: I’ll get back to you with a comment later
Karl: Priorities man.
Cheers

Wait until your dog passes all the other picks from your pick bowl. Then you will have a valid excuse. 
Eeeyou………… 
Just thinking about how you got it back…………

Well, a couple of months ago I shortened my strap slightly for a tighter fit and promptly forgot the next day when I reached behind me to grab it off the rack and snapped in half one of my big Bugs Bunny teeth as the front edge of the guitar struck it whilst recklessly swinging the strap over my head to put it on. Safe to say that ended my practice that morning… 
(plus cost me the price of a mid-ranged guitar to fix the tooth back up again!

Thankfully he’s too small to swallow it whole and I managed to get it back before he could tear off a piece. The pic did not have to go through the round-trip

That is one crazy story. Definitely the best (most valid) excuse I’ve heard.
Sucks that it may have caused you to lose out on a new guitar
