Since chocolate isn't good for dogs (though Florence enjoys it) we usually get them some pigs' ears as a treat at this time of year. One problem however is that they pong to high heaven, and since both St Bernards and Bassetts have a highly developed sense of smell, they can find where I've hidden them easily.
So today, when I'm trying to get to the oven to cook the tea, Homer made a break for it, straight out into the hall and into the bag of pigs' ears. And he wasn't moving until I'd given him one (and of course I couldn't give him one without giving the others a pig's ear as well.
Tomorrow I'm moving the bag of ears - but where can I hide them so Homer doesn't find them?
