My dog has disgraced herself this morning.

[Sn000w]

Off the lead and enjoying a run around, we were the only people in that area of the national trust park,
It was closed to cars and not many people brave (or stupid) enough to walk.

We stumbled upon a lovely little family of snowmen,
however the one that she could reach was a really small but brilliant feathers McGraw with a carrot for a beak. I was going to take a photo and realised she's pinched his beak and ate it!

She's never stolen anything before but she was so fast!

William's mum is a real carrot connoisseur, so would have definitely checked it out - she's another who can hear a carrot being peeled from a distance.
William is in training, clearly

My very gentle very well behaved dog loses her mind with snowmen. If allowed she leaps on them knocking their heads off and then goes to town on the remains. Which is obviously never awkward.

She is not allowed off lead when it has snowed. The DC make snowmen for her in the garden which she gleefully destroys. She will also snatch snowballs out of the air.

She is very docile the rest of the time but she just goes nuts in snow.

Would also flitch a carrot.

My old Dalmatian was a dab hand at snaffling an ice cream cone out of a buggy bound child\s hand. So quick no one knew she had done it, ice cream swallowed in one gulp. We always offered to replace no one ever seemed to mind and the child just sat there with a puzzled face looking around to see where it had gone.

My dog loves carrots and knows the word carrot.

She never steals anything food related but if she came across a carrot just freely available on a snowman like that I'm not sure even she'd be able to resist.

@Skiptogetfit
Go away before you self combust ffs

I'm right there in the gutter with you 😀

It’s a protest against food wastage. What a good dog!

Ds's dog did exactly the same thing when I looked after him for the first time

Snaffled a treat down his throat and pissed up some doggy stockings

He never pees inside and has never done it again

Here she is chief carrot robber

Omg yes!!

I wasn't expecting that OP, she looks so innocent.

Mine is sick oriented, but also partial to a sausage roll

Sock, not sick!

The carrot was right at nose height she is tiny. She was so fast though!

My old collie was a bombproof dog we could take anywhere without him scaring or annoying anyone. I went to cheer my husband on in a local race, was chatting to some friends, and felt something…sneaky happening at the other end of the lead. Looked around to see 2 small children feeding their sausage rolls to him, while the old boy was trying to be as surreptitious as possible because he knew I’d take them off him.

No children were traumatised during this incident.
Although they were a bit disappointed when I told them he couldn’t eat their lunch.

#1 We were walking along the beach with our Trailhound offlead. They have a very keen nose and all of sudden she smelt something blowing in the breeze so chased it to the source. We were left in her wake desperately trying to catch her but by the time we got there she'd eaten both sandwiches and bait of the man fishing down on the waters edge. 😳

It was mortifying, we had nothing on us to leave him dinner money so had to shout our apologies and drag one happy hound off the beach. We didn't go back down there for months after 😬

Trailhound #2 We went to a doggie day out where there's lots of dog stuff to do and buy but also a part where small businesses sell their stuff, stuff like sausages.

There we were walking around the stalls and tables, got to the sausage stall and DH turns to ask shall we buy some at the same moment Trailhound launches herself at the dog height front tier of taster plates and attempts to breath in her own bodyweight of sausage bites. DH starts laughing and says to person selling stuff fancy putting dinner out so early at a dog show, I bought 10 quid of sausages and we left. 😐

😍

Ha excellent, the lure of the carrot was too strong. First snowfall we had after we moved into our new house my parents and their dogs were staying with us. One being a husky so she just wanted to be out in it. Me and DH managed to make a 6 food giant snowman. First thing the little shit did was jump up at it, knick one of its stick arms, knocked it's head off and did a runner around the garden!

Ddog loves snow but got banned from sledging as he would chase after sledges and knock the child off the sledge and then hump them (the child not the sledge)
Now he is just allowed to help with snowman making and snowball fights

Aha! She's a Border Terrorist - that explains everything. Our girl (sadly now departed) loved a carrot (or anything else she could get her paws on). They are wonderful dogs - such characters.

My local supermarket has a lady come in with her guide dog once a week to do their shopping ( she comes in with a list and the staff go round with her to get what she needs ). Every week , the guide dog takes one of those Mattesons sausages that come shrink wrapped off the bottom shelf of the refrigerated aisle, and trots out of the shop , happy as Larry. No one says a thing !

Socks, shoes and carrots here!

Thank you! I love that photo of her. 🥰

I have a carrot lover too. She can tell when you’re chopping carrots as opposed to other veg. The kitchen’s empty, you start chopping and she’s suddenly there, sitting beautifully, being very obviously GOOD.
