We once had an American Golden Cocker Spaniel that couldn’t seem to learn any tricks- we figured she was dumber than a bag o’ hammers. One day, she was eager to get the Arrowroot biscuit that my infant niece was munching on, but every time she got close, my dad warned her away. Finally, she walked off and we figured she had given up, but suddenly she came running back with a dog biscuit in her mouth, dropped it in front of the baby and bang! She grabbed the dropped Arrowroot and made good her escape!
Time for me to tell the story again…
