My sister inlaws spaniel, is obsessed with rocks , of all shapes and sizes, so much so, that its teeth are worn down by it.

Both my bitches, interestingly, are wood fanatics. My wood bucket isn't safe from either of them as they'll pick a bit out and then just sit and bite it to pieces, somewhere in my living room. Often as not on my bloody bed.

 

Now, my mate was round today. You met him in Chat, last night, as " AK47 ". Only today he had his rather more down to earth .22 Rimmy and managed to get one of my nesting Hoodies. He got a reasonable shot at it and it came down. Both saw that from differant angles. Could we find it?!

 

Point is; I let Small Dog out, to see if she could come up with it. But she's still far too young in the head and was happier chasing swallows But you wait! I reckon within a few days now, I'll be sitting here, quietly key crunching, and she'll have it on my bloody bed!

 

It's out there, somewhere. We found primaries that pointed directly to AK's claimed gut shot. Now, if the badgers find it first, I'll find the mess they leave. But, if not? Small Dog will find its rotting corpse and fetch That home here. Straight onto my bed with it and start chewing :sick:

Yeh, what is the wood thing , all mine do something with the damn stuff . We've an 11 year old ESS that demolishes pallets for fecks sake, seems to get quite a buzz out of it .

 

I tend to ignore the Shar Pei when he is slamming a piece of timber into my shins .........Al
