Catch and Release Dog

Apparently, I'm going to have to baby gate the kitchen when Abby is home alone or buy a different latch. Someone has learned how to snoot open a small portable storage cabinet.  There's nothing harmful to pets in there, anything dangerous for her to consume goes in the pantry in the basement.  Mostly this cupboards contains some empty jars for canning and a few packs of protein powder I'll throw in my lunch that were behind the jars.  Apparently, someone was drawn to the fruity smell of this single-serving packet of soy protein powder. I got home yesterday and jars were on the floor and I had a surprise in the dining room.

I don't think she ate ANY of it, as it appeared to be spread all over the floor. Not the 50 square miles of hardwood, but on the only expensive area rug in the house.
I will attempt to look momentarily guilty.

  1. Hey, Abby wants to get her protein fix too:) And of course, any upchucking episodes here usually end up on the carpet instead of the easier-to-clean hardwoods:)

  7. Oh Abby I'm sorry but this made me lol "not the 50 miles of hardwood"!! Angel Madi seemed to like to leave hairballs in the middle of our oriental rug too. I guess she thought we would see it which we didn't we step in them....cold and squishy.

  8. Rugs are always better for foodables and barf. Hardwoods not so much.
