As I’ve mentioned in previous posts, our stale and spotty bread gets thrown to the birds outside our house. We enjoy looking at the birds year round, so it is nice that they show up when our plants are just blooming and throwing out seeds.

I’ll admit, the birds have a preference for some types of bread over others. But eventually, it all gets eaten.

But apparently, not only by the birds.

It seems our dog has decided that since the food is just lying around, he can claim it, too.

So as he is casually acting like he’s sniffing around for potty purposes, he scoop a partial slice up and hold it in his mouth (the crunching would give him away). Then he waits until he’s inside before finding a spot and chowing down, splashing crumbs much like Cookie Monster.

We’ve managed to catch him a few times, thanks to the drool hanging from his mouth, but he is a clever puppy. And very determined.

Apparently, we are learning a new game. Who ever said old dogs can’t teach you a new trick?

Until next time!
