He can still smell it………

Ever the optimist.

So true. We once had a dog that smoked a cat out that was hiding behind a bush. And for the remainder of that dog’s life, whenever we would walk by that house, she would go investigate that same bush every time.

By now there must be a whole family of treats living under there.

They never forget.

Which is why I always get them out as quickly as possible

My dog found a hotdog by a bush on the next block once. Now he has to check the magic hotdog bush every day.

When’s the last time you cleaned under there? LOL

I had a beagle like that once, but it was what went under the stove. It got moved out twice a year for oven cleaning; she was right on hand.

I don’t get dogs. They seem smart enough to remember some things but cannot figure out a simple concept like a litter box.

Wow, that was 49 years ago!

Ha! Because it’s there, is the excuse we use for climbing mountains so fare as Fare.

as a house painter, I can attest to how often (or not how often) people clean behind and under the fridge…

We had a “rabbit tree”. A sly old rabbit tricked my dog into thinking they disappeared up a tree, when in reality they bolted down a hole under a nearby tree. For months afterwards she would crane her neck in search of that trickster bunny in the tree top! :D

He thinks if he waits long enough, it will roll out.
