The OH made a couple of dozen muffins yesterday evening.

She washed up one of the mixing bowls and when she turned round there were only 19 on the trays.

However, there was also a very contented Labrador with a full tummy.

He slept very soundly last night and so far hasn't been sick.

They were cooked and in paper cases, so they should come out the other end ready wrapped!

Are Labradors bigger thieves than other dogs. Know one that ate a whole lasagne, for 8 people, uncooked. Vet said keep an eye on him and let him know if he suffered any more than just indigestion. Trouble is they don't learn.

My cousin had a Labrador, and he used to eat the clothes off the washing line, jump up and get them off. My cousin said it was terrible, what came out the other end. knickers mostlyl

He stopped doing it when he got older.

Being a household of vegetarians our labradore has missed out on meaty leftovers. He does however gets his fair share of vegetables!..he has been known to devoure potatoe peelings and raw carrotts.

I know this is not a dog, but before I lived in Hampshire, we used to bring our Caravan to the New Forest for holidays.
There was a Dutch couple camping near us one time, they had cooked up egg and bacon in a frying pan, and a New Forest Pony came up to them, they were frightened and ran into their tent. The Pony kicked the stove over and ate the egg and bacon.

Seeing was believing, I only thought they ate grass and vegetation.

That wasn't Trader's first effort by any means.
He is a born thief for human food.
He's had no end of cakes and biscuits, a couple of tubs of butter, a plate of chicken we'd put on the table when friends came for tea, and most of my M&S iced sponge birthday cake last year (that DID make him sick).
