Just got to bed now. I brought two biscuits with me and left them on the night stand while I went to the bathroom. I came back to find my dog lying on my bed and only one biscuit on the nightstand.
At least he left one for me, little thief haha
 
Made me grin..it's 6 am here and I'm having a coffee and biscuitsin bed.......mine get a bonio biscuit ,but I know the schnauzer piggy has her eye on my biscuitsLOL
 
That was very generous of him to leave you one.

My Labraguts stole and wolfed down an entire French Bread Stick last week, was really looking forward to it with some minestrone soup! I was only in the garden for 5 minutes hanging out the washing.
 
Our lurcher last week ate OH's sandwiches while he was in the shower. He'd clingfilmed them, so I was a bit worried but apparently the dog undid the cling film, left the bread and scarfed the meat !!
 
haha love these. Glad my Paddy isn't alone

cheeky dogs. Not only do they steal our food but they pick and choose which bits are good enough for them

Silv don't you just hate it when you really look forward to something and they steal it
 
Had a cat many years ago that managed to do a flying leap across the dinner table, lifting a chicken leg as it went, straight off of the plate!

There were four of us eating at the time.

We just fell about laughing as as it was off of OH plate. I enjoyed mine. I have since become vegetarian.
 
I got a pack of burgers out of the freezer and put them on the worktop . I dropped the OH and kids at the field and went back for the dogs and food for the BBQ, 10 minutes . Just an empty packet left, he had opened the plastic wrapper and chomped the lot . He was a lab part bred from the rescue centre . There was no bad side effects bless him .
 
my silly oh foil wrapped some left over chicken and roast potatoes to take to work for lunch he put them next to his briefcase at the front door on the floor! of course jack Russell knows anything on the floor is for dogs right he caught her scoffing the lot when he went to leave, he was so devastated as he had been bragging about his yummy lunch I found it very funny of course still can't believe he left it on the floor what a wally.
 
I live with a whippety lurcher. I expect anything left unattended to be stolen. I am just grateful that the kitchen is too small for him to feel comfortable jumping up on top of the kitchen worktops now, as he used to open the cupboards and trash my house! I used to have to keep the bread in the microwave as he couldnt open that :lol:
 
Lurchers are the best at thieving, my last lurcher stole the bread whilst I was making the kids sarnies-I buttered the bread and reached to my left to get the ham to put in the sarnie and the bread had gone, I swear I did not move my feet but felt and heard nothing she was so quick. She also once came running up to me with a panicked look on her face when I was fencing a quick look revealed she had a sarnie bag hanging out of her butt, a left over from the sarnie she had stolen the night before-I told one of the vets who laughingly said it brings a whole new meaning to ***** bag.
That lurchers dam one stole a leg of lamb from an unknown household and took it home still fully wrapped and another time did the same with 2lb of sausages
 
Hes better now as hes passed the adolescent stage, but we also spend a lot of time tricking him into thinking hes stealing :lol: But there really is nothing that thieves better and more often than a lurcher! I cant imagine what a luxury it would be to leave biscuits anywhere that wasnt 6 foot in the air :lol:
 
I trust my bitches around my food, I can put my full dinner plate down on the floor, and leave the room for a while, and they don't touch it. However, I don't trust my cats at all. E.g. one evening I had 3 or 4 sandwiches with butter and raspberry jam on, waiting for me on my desk, when I came back into the room, I had 3 or 4 sandwiches with only butter on.
Since my bitches have never bothered with licking off the jam first, when I occasionally give them bits of a leftover sandwich, I'm sure it wasn't one of them. Whereas Cilla the cat, is periodically quite fond of raspberry jam...

By the way, don't think that my other cat is any better. Berta doesn't only e.g. drinks from glasses with water, she has also been caught dunking a paw down in other person's coffee cups and wine glasses (I don't drink either of the two later).
 
Haha funny stories.

I have a Patterdale terrier, some of her more impressive thefts and eatings include...
1. 24 pack of vanilla scented tea lights (she was fine!)
2. 4 large double chocolate cookies (she was fine!)
3. A homemade pizza I left on the coffee table when I nipped to the loo, came back and it was on the floor, she was standing on it eating it
4. Chocolate coated Brazil nuts. Sucked the chocolate off and spat out the nuts (was fine!)
5. The crotch of 2 pairs of jeans
6. Numerous underwear
 
Brilliant thread and made me smile.
My GSP girlie was a nightmare for Champagne and Cava. If I had the girls round we couldn't sit around on the floor drinking or put the glasses on the floor as she would have her tongue in everyone's glass without warning or you realising - like Mum like daughter i suppose :)
She also ,when only about 6 months old, manged to get her tongue through the dog guard, pull the wrapping off one of those ASDA made in store pizzas that was in a carrier standing up on end and chew and lick quite a bit of the topping off. It was for my ex husband and I really couldn't be arsed to go back in to ASDA to get him a new one so I just grated a bit of cheese on the top and served it to him. Didnt do him any harm.....mores the pity.......
 
I recall one year cooking the Christmas Turkey, taking it out of the oven, loosely covered in foil and put it on the windowsill in the kitchen to rest whilst we took some gifts to my sisters 5 mins down the road.

Came back about an hour later, and yep, the Golden Retriever and the Chihuahua had somehow managed to drag it off onto the kitchen floor and proceeded to take chunks out of it.

No Christmas turkey for us and the resulting farts from the dogs all night where vomit inducing.
 
Had a Labrador once that stole the Christmas baking from under one of those fancy glass domes, on the kitchen side board. At (now ex) mother in laws house on Christmas Eve!!! She wasn't best pleased!
