The Sinking Pet Glitch
Joefish:
I have this same exact problem...my pet will randomly sink into the floor and then a screen will come up saying there was an error and i have to delete, reset, or cancel. If i delete then i delete the dog and have to go back to the neighbor hood and then back into the house again to see the dog. If i reset the screen just keeps poping up again and same thing with cancel. One thing i did find that does help this glitch is if u use the cheat boolprop ControlPets and then make the pet who's sank do something like go to sleep on the couch or in a dog bed then they come out of sinking

I did that in the end...i also prefer to play with testingcheats enabled..but it just got too annoying to direct them all th time and it kept happening when the action i gave them was done, so i finally turned TT off and they can keep swimming in the ground untill someone can find a fix...:)

The only time my pets sink is if they want to use an object another pet is using. Instead of the "waving arms-stomping feet" thing, they just sink into the ground. I think maybe they might be missing an animation for "frustration" at not being able to use an "in use" object.
By the way, if you have four food dishes all filled, they will still sink into the floor next to the one food dish some other pet is using. Ditto with the pet beds. No matter how many you have, the pet will sink into the floor next to the occupied bed rather than bothering itself to find another empty pet bed.
Modders are aware the "pet ownership" code in the game is messed up. Give it a little bit, and someone will have a fix for this.

A friend of mine had the sinking pets scenario. He took out the hacks sit on floor to watch TV ,objects-floating-aspiration plus sleep on community lots and it was fixed.

I had the sinking phenom one day only. I took out the old community sleeping hack and I haven't seen it since. Squinge has since updated the hack to PETS compatibilty, which is now in my game, and, happily, I am not seeing the pet sink hole.
