He has excelled himself!
So, we were out at lunchtime and just as I went to recall him he shot off, displaying classic spangle deafness
'Oh no' thinks I, seeing he is heading for a ditch where there had been a dead pigeon a few days ago (we had a discussion on this issue and it was left in the ditch after he'd retrieved it a few times
).
So I stand and fume for a second, then start to head towards him with murder on my mind
. And he picks something up (I'm thinking, 'Ack! Ek! Decomposing pigeon!
') and heads for me....
It was my little dog treat bag, which I had dropped there on Monday and hadn't seen since - he had found it
And he brought it straight over, sat and presented it, and he didn't rip his way into it (as he did a long while ago with one of its predecessors)
So he got to eat a large lump of the contents as a reward, and is now looking smug as he has shown himself to be a GENIUS, albeit a cloth-eared one...
