A Dog's Best Friend

My Chocolate Lab is nine months old. One morning last week while my wife was showering he stole her flip flop and chewed it up into about a thousand pieces!  I didn't notice until I saw him with her black shoes.

I quickly grabbed them away and wiped off his drool, and put the cushions back inside the shoes. Then I put them back under the bed. I could still hear the shower going, so I quickly ran into the living room getting down on all fours to start picking up all the pieces of flip flop. My Lab thought I was getting down to play.

After swatting him away I finished picking up all the pieces, throwing it all away in the trash can hiding the evidence. My wife will be looking for those flip flops in a couple of months, but I can buy her a new pair for a present between now and then, and just maybe she'll forget about the old ones. Now if that's not a man loving his best friend, covering his trail I don't know what is !! 

Can you imagine if someone had video-taped me while in the act. My Lab and I would both be in the Dog house !

Dad...generally people who sign "anonymous" don't text the link to their daughter! I won't tell, just remember who has a birthday next week. Love-your anonymous daughter <3

And he would have gotten away with it, too... if you hadn't blabbed about it on Holliston Reporter :-) Now, you're *both* in the doghouse...
