Birthday Treats

Guinness has never loved the postman as much as he did today. In fact I can guarantee that from now on, he will no longer bark at the postman but sit and wag his tail as the mail comes through the slot, waiting anxiously to investigate the next packages, just in case they might contain something good.

So what's this post all about really? Here's your first clue...


Guinness doesn't do much these days to really surprise us in the way of destruction or other such mischief, but today was different. He must have thought he won the lottery. We can imagine him coming downstairs at some point today to sneak onto the couch and instead catch a whiff of something truly wonderful.

Guinness was the lucky recipient of, as the package customs form shows above, some dog treats. The only clue as to what kind of dog treats they were, is the bit of paper from the package that he didn't eat. That and all the other bits of foil, plastic and bubble wrap that he weeded through to get to them.


Needless to say, he was definitely quite pleased with his find and good work and expresses his sincere thanks to those wonderfully kind people across the pond. He will lick you crazy the next time he sees you!

This is what apparently tasted so good.


p.s. Sharon, yes, he does actually have a passport - part of the PetScheme requirements when he came over here, including the microchip, ridiculously huge kennel, shots etc...
