John tested--- Annie approved

Oh boy what a day. Our really good friends Mary Ann and Leslie came, just as promised. And oh how we loved them, they brought us new toys, and raw hides were really taken with us. And we were taken with them. We showed them how cute we could be and even Quigley who was in his hiding place (the one no one knows about) came out to greet them.

Mary Ann brought mom the cookie recipe. It was a long day, what with the bath and all, the trauma. But by afternoon, Quigley forgave dad some and it seemed we were going to just settle into a wonderful saturday thing. When night came, dad wanted mom to make the cookie's, she promised to make them tomorrow ( which is now today) but he couldn't wait. Dad is a pretty good baker, so she just smiled and let him go at it.

 It wasn't very long when the kitchen smelled wonderful and mom was saying they tasted wonderful. He was working in the kitchen on mom's new phone while they cooled and then we all came into the living room. Quigley fell asleep and all got quiet. Mom has this thing called allergies and they were "acting up", so she decided to take a pill and go to bed. She went into the kitchen to get the pill and oh my what did she see?

There was Annie, somehow reaching on top of the island , where the cookies were cooling, eating them one at a time. When mom came in and saw, Annie very wisely dropped the one she had just stolen and looked innocent. Mom called our VERY loudly for dad and asked how many were eaten. She had gotten 5. Now I don't know if you remember or not, but the cookies were PEANUT BUTTER, CHOCOLATE CHUNKS.

 Mom being mom went into panic mode, dad being dad, went with her. Lucky for Annie, our vet is a long time family friend and so when dad called him at home at 9 o'clock at night he didn't get mad. Lucky for her too, cause he said the cookies didn't have the bad chocolate in them and she would be alright. Dad was getting ready to put something down her throat that would make her throw up, and I don't think she would have liked that.

So yesterday was a day where we taught them a thing or two. NEVER leave stuff that SMELLS good anywhere that Annie can levitate to. They happen to be quick learners, so I guess Annie is out of luck as she'll never have a chance to steal goodies again.

Oh yeah, it's the next morning now, and if any of you are worried, Annie is fine, no side effects from the chocolate, but mom said, no matter what, she'll never taste that again.

Quigley, (THE GOOD DOG) signing off.

Hi guys, Camille here, just one more thing. We just spent about $100,00 dollars on 60 lbs of dog food  that is grain free............................Yikes. And the first people food she has ever gotten here is cookies.
The best laid plans of mice and men.
