The only G&T I can think of is gin & tonic. Is that what you meant?

Ah ha! I remember that -- I was thinking about that incident while
reading this thread, and wondered if your dog was the culprit then
as well. Wish I could give you some sage advice on this, but I've
never had a dog that clever.

Please tell me you meant "bringing"! Thought maybe we were going to
start another population reduction discussion. Besides, I'd like to
see the pot in which you could brine two seven-year-old humans. ;-)

You're a brave man, Michael. In the future you may want to consider

That's a good one. Our Irish Setter, Molly, used to eat
hamburgers right out of the frying pan if you left the
room for a second. She also got out a couple of times
and brought home someone else's groceries (I assume they
were unloading the car and left a bag unattended while
they took another into the house.) She came home once
with a large package of pork chops. But stealing right
off the grill is really classy!

First of all, yes, it IS funny, and yes, your dog is a thief. However...you
said yourself that you took your eyes off her for just a few seconds and that's
when the thievery happened. Where was the cook who LOST the ribs? Do you think
for one minute I'd turn my back on a rack of ribs being cooked? So your girl
only gets half the blame. Secondly, what self-respecting dog wouldn't grab free
food that seemingly had no owner? I mean, it's just laying there, putting out
great aromas...Nobody guarding it means it's hers for the taking. That's just
the nature of ANY "beast." (G)
I'm avoiding the long edition, but remember that your dog could have been in a
lot more trouble than just stealing ribs in that short period of time she was
"missing." It could have resulted in a stolen, injured, or even dead dog.
Please be careful.

The person doing the cooking is more responsible anyhow. The ribs
should have been in a WSM with the lid on at around 250dF. Your pooch
couldn't have gotten to 'em that way. ;-)

Heh, my dog knew better than to even look at people food. No pet
begging in my house. Well, I have a strong suspicion that she would
get the occasional treat from the neighbors. So, if she was caught
staring at the neighbors when they cooked out, I would say, NO.

No begging at the table, no begging, at all. So, if they were
cooking outside she couldn't help herself. She would race around
to this bush and hide under it and stare at them from there.

(laughing) You had to see it to know how funny that was.

Heh. My stepmother could not STAND pets. DISGUSTING. Then my father
died and, oddly, someone gave one of my brothers a dog. Well, before
you knew it, the dog would stretch up and eat from people's plates.

NO! Oh, poor Cookie. Poor Cookie my ass. She did love that dog.
But it was very poorly trained.

None of my pets ever begged at the table and were never given "people
food". They would actually leave the room when we sat to eat. All of
'em were really good about it even the Husky, as long as you didn't
leave meat on the counter and leave the room where she got "tempted",
then all bets were off. ;-) But then again, Huskys are just a strange
breed anyhow. Wonderful dogs though.

Your puppy should be up to the task. My grandmother had a
dog that went after moles. She would sight one and then
send him out to get it or scare it away.

Good for you! I hate begging dogs.

> They would actually leave the room when we sat to eat.

Do you mean they were trained to leave the room? When I was
a kid our dogs were out of the room, but they sat in the
doorway with great anticipation. Why? Because my mother
saved all the leftovers and incorporated them into the dogs
next meal.

My dogs didn't get leftovers and never exhibited that
behavior. In fact, once they were properly socialized (all
were rescue dogs), they could lie quietly near us while we
ate and never begged for food.
