Well, we went out to eat this evening at the Fiesta buffet (good prices, so-so food) and we lock up our dog Brody in my kid's bedroom because he has a habit of stealing food off the counters or garbage.
A little history of Brody- he was found in an abandoned house in the middle of the summer, up in Overton, NV- about 50 miles north of Las Vegas. Some people found him and took him home but they were unable to keep him because of a small house and too many dogs.
So, we got him about 3 years ago and he is a very friendly dog but his bark is loud and rough, which makes anybody trying to break into our house think twice.
But he has a habit of eating out of garbage cans an eating off of counters. When it comes to food, he has no self control... kind of like me when I was younger.
So, this evening, we put him in our son's room and closed the door and put the radio on.
When we got back, we found out that he ripped open my son's Nestlé's Crunch small sized candy bars and it turns out he ate both the chocolate and the wrappers of 8 candy bars.
We thought my son had the candy bars out of reach of the dog, but obviously not.
When we got home, the bag was ripped open, 8 mini candy bars were gone and Brody the dog, was on a sugar high.
So, will the dog live over night? The next day or week?
Right now, he is still hungry, is happy and is not in any pain.
He's done this before and survived, so let's hope he makes it again. If he were a cat, he would have used up at least 8 of 9 lives.
I'll keep you updated.
