Sticks: Does She Notice?

Are yours fascinated by sticks as well? I swear no matter how many toys they have, there is a clear fascination with sticks.

Spicy will covet them and hide them under her paw and body as if you won't see.

She's a riot.

Oh and they say dawgs aren't smart, think again. They can be too smart for their own good.

Here Spicy is doing her quiet shuffle to hide them from me in case I grab them and throw them out.

Mommy, garden some more so I can find more sticks, will ya?

Our garden is filled with all kinds of opportunties for Spicy to indulge this vice of hers. I will keep a close eye on her all the same. One comment, which I imagine Darlah has made in the past. We have a swimming pool. With it comes responsibility. That means we never leave our dogs out alone when they can access it, never. It doesn't matter that all of our adult dogs know perfectly well how to get out of it if they get in it. This is one tragedy I never want to experience. If you have a pool never leave your dogs alone with access to is, just the same as you'd do with any toddler. There is no grey area on this one. Protect your family.
