To Eat...or Not to Eat---My Bread, That Is!!!

Does anyone else's dog have a bread fetish? For some reason, Chip has developed one in the past few weeks. Cases in point:

  1. In Cuero 2 weeks ago, he ate one of the two loaves of bakery bread we were going to take to Nordheim for dinner.
  2. Last weekend: bought some deliciously looking overpriced bakery bread for a meal I was actualy going to cook on Sunday night---and he ate it while I was in the shower.
  3. Tonight--while I was at water aerobics, he ate the hot dog buns I just bought TODAY!!!

Mind you...all of these have been in packages, wrapped, sealed, etc..... What the heck!

Is he deficient in something? Am I not giving him proper food--all he gets is dog food--no scraps. Help! If you know something, let me know. My bread thief has got to stop!

Chip's momma (AKA--me) wants her bread back!

That is too funny! I've never heard of that. Of course I've heard of labs and all that counter-surfing for sure -- but for anything - not just eyeing the bread! I lived with some friends once who had a black lab and he got into a pecan pie -- a WHOLE pie and talk about a state he was in after that. Poor guy!

I'll ask Robert -- he may know.

That's crazy and I have no idea why he's stealing all your bread! I have had dogs steal cookies that were cooling, but never bread.
