sherlock bones

L. is outta control. this dog biscuit hiding thing is unreal. i mean, why not just *eat* the biscuit!?!
and me, what do *i* do?? i put my nose to the ground & sniff those babies out whenever i can!!
with my keen detective skills i have uncovered some of the mystery of L. this week alone she has...

1. used mom's school books to cover a biscuit - now that's a lame hiding place! mom is forever at those things & so discovery was imminent.
2. stuck a biscuit in a slipper - some may lament the smell of feet, but hey, i'm a dog & that is not a barrier to me finding/eating that biscuit!


3. left a biscuit in the shower - a bit soggy possibly, but again, i will eat nearly anything in any state of being, solid or liquid, gas if i could!


4. laid for *hours* on *our* - i say OUR- dog bed with a biscuit beside her (growling if i came near). ok, here i must draw the line & come down on the side of ridiculous. what did L. gain by this activity? a sore throat? of course, i tried to get that thing frequently! sometimes i just went to the bed to catch a cushy nap. either way, she growled & wasted way. too. much. dog energy for a measely 1/2 milk bone.
5. stuffed one in the back of dad's recliner - ok this one is fraught with lots of complications. first there is the "no people furniture" rule that mom will bend only for the use of the chaise lounge. (we were very persuasive in that matter!) L. was obviously on the furniture. someone would obviously find the bone - think tailbone hitting milk bone! or....i would have to risk getting on people furniture for recon. what a dilemma! i sacrificed it for my peeps' tailbones & achieved the said bone of glory...mmmmm.


6. dug in mom's indoor plant (did you hear her yell when she found the soil mess?!?!). this has to be the cream of the stupid crop. like mom wouldn't see all that displaced dirt? like no one would notice the bone bulges in the soil? not to mention, L. rendered a perfectly perfect milk bone quite dirty! but as noted, i will still eat it - dirt & all!


biscuits: yum, any way you get it!

What sweet babies.

Now, how much is spent on biscuits each month? :)

jennie...i don't even want to know! & it all depends on whether or not someone forgets to close the pantry door or not - if it is open a crack, the hounds will invade the forbidden biscuit stash!

This post cracks me up! Our dog used to hide her biscuits until we got her a "sister" that came along behind her and gobbled them up!
