The adventures of a lurcher in the Scottish capital


Gravy bones spree




I have to admire Jake. This morning, while we were out, he finally worked out how to

a) reach up to the shelf in the utility room where his treat stash is kept
b) pull/knock down the large tub of gravy bones
c) eat 1 kilo of gravy bones.

So we came home to find a snake that had swallowed an ostrich egg, sorry, one very sleepy lurcher with a suspiciously bulging gut. Several sedate walks have followed. That kilo of gravy bones has to go somewhere.



There was no tea for Jake this evening. And he hasn't even noticed.

    Happy to report that Jake has recovered his usual svelte line with nothing worse that immense thirst as a side-effect.

    Gunner - it's a small world, isn't it!!
