We love chocolate.

No dogs allowed on the carpet in the living room.  Definitely no dogs allowed on the furniture.  When we are there, no dogs dare attempt it!!  Yet, for some reason, as soon as we turn our backs

there is chocolate on the couch.  And this is the look he gives when we ask what in the world he thinks he's doing there.

Another one bites the dust...

This is Ripley, our crazy chocolate lab, and his Baby. Please note that Baby has had better days. Those days were all of the days he had before he entered our house!   Both this Baby, and Cosmo's Baby (featured earlier this month!) were Christmas gifts for the dogs from their auntie.  Both of them lasted approximately 4.23 seconds before parts were destroyed and/or missing!  Ahh, they are well loved.

See those long strings? Those were tightly twisted ropes to use for playing tug...once upon a time.
