Re: Strange playmates indeed....but a guaranteed smile
I once had a yellow lab when I lived on a lake and he would watch the ducks all day. You could see him thinking "If somebody would shoot one of those I would love to go get it" He finally had enough and went in the lake himself and caught one. Yep, a live duck. I was at work and missed it but my neighbors were all talking about it when I got home. He proudly walked all over the neighborhood with it in his soft mouth, with the duck quacking away for all his worth. Finally one of my neighbors got tired of the noise and took it from my dog and put it back in the lake. Being a lab that was easy and fine with him. Can't you just hear the other ducks laughing at their buddy about being caught by a dog when he got back to the water?
