Tracking Dog Hits On Scent. Strange Package Found On Ohio Womans Doorstep

[Joanne ~ Spud*]

On Tuesday around 5pm, an Ohio woman  returned home from work and tripped over a suspicious package at her doorstep shipped from Nashville, TN.

Doodlekisses member Joanne, reports that her Goldendoodle Spud is a  trained treat-tracking dog who hit on the suspicious package instantly detecting lots of tantalizing smells.   The suspicious package was quickly removed from the dog and placed in safe keeping but this failed to keep Spud, and his sister Starlit, a Labradoodle, from an all out canine explosion in which they began the dreaded behaviors of relentless jumping and barking at the brown box.  An immediate investigation into the package contents was ordered by the Doodles.  Joanne objected but was overruled.

The contents were found to contain:

• Two colorful scarves
• A Busy Budy Squirrel Kong
  
• A bag of Fromm’s Cranberry Naturals Treats (who knew it was the  favorite of the dogs? )
• Tennessee’s finest Honey ( I did not know Tn. was famous for Honey) and a Pet Magazine From Nashville.   Do Doodles in Nashville sing Country Music?
  
• Zuke's Mini Naturals
• Zuke's Z Ridge Dental Chew ( this for sure goes to Starlit and her breath)
• Terrabone--Complete Natural Nutrition --(I wonder if Allyson, Peri, and Taquito are Actively involved in the food group??????)
• And  THE HOPELESS DOODLE ADDICT TROPHY AND THE  TRAVELING JOURNAL NOTES FROM FELLOW DK MEMBERS WHO PREVIOUSLY RECEIVED THIS WONDERFUL AWARD

Spud listens intently as Starlit finishes a Healthy Chew while Dad Reads the Doodle Journal

A Special Favorite was Some Poetry :)

Do You Read To Your Doodles?

How Lucky is this Woman to belong to such a wonderful group of owners and dogs?

"LIFE IS GOOD HERE ON DK", she stated to reporters.

Doodles Starlit and Spud proudly pose for pictures with Dad in their new outfits!
The doodles and their dad  stated they are not addicted but loved the fact that their mom was.   She loves all the people, she laughs A LOT, and learns new things everyday.
  Spud mentioned that even OLD MOMS can learn NEW Tricks and being an addict on DK is not such a bad thing as far as he and his sister were concerned.  Starlit said, " yeah, look how sweet I look in my new outfit and my belly is full, and life is good"

A Special thank you to Allyson, Peri, and Taquito for the beautiful package all the way from Nashville

Thank YOU   All  For Being The Doodle Lovers You Are and Being Great Friends  :)
