Aha! Secrets of secret dog behavior revealed!
For months, if not in the last few years, I've discovered some crazy behavior on the part of my beloved pet. A lot of it I have documented here; chasing her tail at night outside by the pool when she thinks I'm not looking, digging holes and resting in the dirt, burying dog treats in the yard... These are things I never knew about her until I had a back yard for her to indulge in and a doggy door for easy access to her playground. But today, long standing mysteries were revealed. I finally made the trek out back to do the one job I hate the most... picking up the poop. I had put it off for way too long and let's just say she was running out of places. Also, there had been a piece of plastic way in the back that had blown into my yard from one of the storms and I wanted to pick that up.
So around the yard I went with my trash bag and plastic bag covering my hands to do the dirty work. Yuck yuck yuck. And I got to the piece of plastic. It wasn't just a piece of plastic though!! It was a large container of my protein powder that had been "missing!" The little thief took it out of the box it was delivered in and she tried to bury it back there! A whole container that is about 10 inches high and 4 inches around! How in the hell did she get it out there? No way she can hold that thing in her mouth...?! I couldn't believe it! 9 of the 10 inches was buried! I could only see the top.
I was just about done laughing, as well as picking up the poop, when I came across an even more unusual and partially buried object. Ladies and gentleman, this crazy pooch had buried one of my missing steak knives. I'm not kidding! Remember my rant about missing steak knives?? How did it get outside? Hell, how did she get it in the first place? I used to sneak and hide beer outside... but I always had a use for it! What could Bonnie be planning with a hidden steak knife!?
Or was it Bonnie at all? There has been a materialization of mysterious lip gloss, strange disappearances of shower curtains as well as steak knives... What in the hell is going on around here?

I think I see the makings of a very carefully planned mutiny:
First I will kill crazy lady with the steak knife... but then I will get hungry! I will need to sustain myself. How to do that... Aha! Protein!
Keep an I on that dog.

She's very sneaky, that one.
ok, ok...Tim and I buried the steak knife. Sheesh, didn't think it was that big a deal. Bonnie saw the whole thing.
Aha! My boyfriends and dog are in cahoots! I suppose it was your lip gloss I found too?!
