I just had to relate a story that happened several years ago when I had my rough collie Lacey. We were having a cook out in the back yard and allowed the kids to roast weenies on the fire by themselves. My son Eric, who was about 8 at the time, crouched at that fire and roasted his weenie to perfection checking it often to make sure it was just the color he wanted. When he finished roasting it he meticulously placed it in the bun with just the right among of mustard, ketchup and relish. He picked up his plate and fixed his baked beans and chips just so and found his favorite lounge chair to sit in. Now he didn't want any bean juice on that bun so he held his hotdog in his left hand with his elbow on the arm of the lounge while he got himself situated. Once he was settled he took a big bite of his perfectly cooked hotdog only to come up with a mouth full of bun, mustard and relish. He looked to his left and there stood Lacey with that hotdog in her mouth, she had slipped that dog right out of the bun without Eric even knowing it, and proceeded to enjoy her perfectly cooked hotdog with just the right amount of mustard, ketchup and relish. I watched the whole scene play out in front of me and laughed till I cried. BTW Eric did get himself another hotdog and was lauded by Lacey for his culinary achievements.

LOL... some dogs are just very clever. That's priceless. BTW I don't mind hearing funny stories. the forum needs to liven up a bit so keep telling them

Great story! Made me laugh. I've got four dogs who make me laugh every day. I'm convinced that's one of the reasons they were put in our lives.

When my brother was 5, my Mom took us out for ice cream with our dor Dutch. My brother insisted that Dutch liked "vawella" my Mom told him she liked chocolate. But my brother was such a pain she got Dutch "vawella" and my brother got a chocolate cone. Well, my mom let us sit in the van with the door open. My brother turned to give Dutch her ice cream but as he went one way she went the other and ate his. From that day on, my brother always gave dutch chocolate.
