I have to tell this story! I don't mind exposing my dork qualities at all. Or at least not too much! So there I was getting ready to go to my boyfriend's house for the evening. As usual when I leave in the evenings I give the boys a snack once I get them confined to the hallway where they stay when I'm not home.
I put the boys behind the gate and they anxiously waited for a treat as they know the routine well! I decided to give each boy one munchy stick and one rawhide stick. Now Cody grabbed them both originally then dropped one. He left one behind as he went off to concentrate on eating the other one. The only problem with that plan is that Simon is a HUNGRY MAN. Born hungry! If I didn't intervene Simon was going to get Cody's 2nd treat. I decided to reach over the gate to pick up Cody's 2nd treat, I then got ready to toss it to Cody while Simon wasn't looking. Simon was pretty focused on his own treats so that wasn't too hard. I suppose I should mention I was juggling lots of things in my hands as I reached over. As a result I somehow lost my balance as I tried to toss Cody's 2nd treat to him. Before long it was apparent I was going to do some sort of a flip over the gate. The way I was falling I was close to falling on Simon's 2nd treat. He quickly saw I was about to fall. He decided to move then realized he had forgotten his 2nd treat so he lunged back to get it. As I completed my flip over the gate and landed on the floor I busted out laughing. Cody immediately came over to me. Simon glanced over as he feverishly worked on his 2 treats.
It's still funny to me! I will never forget the look on Simon's face as he realized he forgot his 2nd treat. It was quite the lunge on his part to recover his treat too, I might add!
That's so Simon. Good to know he can make tough decisions! Ready and willing to save his rawhide and make sure it's out of harms way. Oh that Sime!
