My younger Lab as a puppy always was very pleased with herself when she managed to get to the Kleenex box . . .
"I'm havin' a ball! Wanna help???!?!?!??!!"
(plastic covers on the boxes solved the problem. Now she can only get one at a time.)
Our Golden would grab a used napkin or tissue and run under the coffee table, which is large enough for him to scramble away from you when you try to grab him.
It always took at least two of us to get the paper away from him before he swallowed it.
Now, at two and a half years old, he expresses his displeasure at one of us by grabbing an article of clothing and bringing it to me. It’s usually wet but unharmed. Usually.
My sister and bro-in-law have a black lab on their farm. Then they got chickens. Went into town one afternoon, leaving him alone. Talk about a real mess. Had to buy new chickens.
Great picture! I shudder in anticipation...I’m getting an 8 week old puppy about a month from now.
