We spent a long weekend at the cabin for grouse hunting, but we were also there because we were getting a new well drilled.
We knew the noise from drilling might bother the dogs so we made sure they were comfortable in the house. Thunder and Storm are older, so they were happy to lounge around a bit. Freighter is a youngster with a lot of energy, so I made sure to take him on a nice walk in the morning.
The day before he got out into the forest for some hunting.
The dogs weren’t really bothered by the noise of the drilling, but it was a long day of them being cooped up in the house. Around lunchtime I put out some whipped cheese in a tub for a snack. I left it in the middle of the counter so we could nibble on it and went back to reading a book on the porch.
There was a lot of noise so I couldn’t really hear what the dogs were doing. I assumed they were snoozing.
Not so…
Hubby came in from outside and found a brown dawg standing on the counter with his face in the tub of cheese! All fours. Standing on the counter.
I guess when something looks appealing, you might as well help yourself.
When cheese is left out for the family….
Why not help yourself to all the yummy goodness? My gang does it all the time! Glad you have water again.
BOL funny that so was some mischief. Have a marvellous Monday.
Best wishes Molly
they took the chance for counter surfing, how clever :o)
I guess the long walk wasn’t enough to tire him out…or maybe he just needed a snack to nibble on too.
Small dog in a big package! He looks chastened, so can he have some more cheese?
In defense of the guilty party, you stated above, “I left it in the middle of the counter so we could nibble on it”. It does not say we includes or excludes dogs, so I side with the dog, it was not wrong. 😉
Oh my goodness, that takes counter surfing to a whole new level. I hope Luke never finds out this is possible. LOL
Cheese thieves! 😛
When our girls were growing up, I was always told “if they’re quiet, then they’re up to something.” I guess it applies to dogs as well. Pretty smart of them to wait until there is enough noise to cover their cheese burglary!
Too funny that we both blogged about the irresistability of cheese today! But yours is MUCH more mischeivous! 🙂 Standing on the counter! BOL!
And that is why I never leave anything out on the counter. Even though Callie and Shadow both have varying levels of cruciate disease, I wouldn’t put it past Ducky to find a way to get at what she wants! LOL
Hi Y’all!
I have to show my Human this post! She and Papa already think I am about the best dog ever…I’ve lived with them since I was 14 months and the worst thing I’ve ever done is sniff the edge of the counter…and get a royal “yelling at”. Gee Golly!
Sorry Freighter, but I’d already figured it would be you! Good thing you don’t have my Human…you’d lose your “freedom” and spend all your time in your crate unless the Human was right there watching every little breath you took.
What did your mum do to you?
Y’all come by now,
Hawk aka BrownDog
Mum did not catch him. But when I heard about it I laughed. I could not help it.
Sweet Freighter we can sure understand how you would not be able to pass up that yummy cheese. Sounds to us like it was left there for you to try and see how it was…good job! lol Hugs and nose kisses
I’m sorry, but I can’t help but love this dog. That’s moxie right there!!
Uh oh. Shame shame, you guys for leaving yummy food where a brown dawg can get it. Very smart, Freighter, but you might pay for it with a tummy ache later.
Awww Freighter, you need to be faster next time if you want to get all of it. 😀
