Cannonwood crime wave

Just as Niki and I were congratulating ourselves for feeding Charlie a corndog for lunch, and admiring how it could be both a toy and a meal -- she was alternating between munching on it and running around waving it -- our dog mugged her.

Connie got up and ambled casually over to Charlie. While Charlie was in mid-corndog-wave, Connie took the corndog from Charlie and settled down in the lawn to eat it. Charlie seemed ambivalent.

Niki and I were equally appalled and amused.

In addition, today, I had to use the phrase "Charlie, don't stick your brush in Connie's water bowl and lick it."

Sheesh.

Up until Connie mugged Charlie, we thought Connie WAS the neighborhood watch!

I can't believe Charlotte didn't get upset! I would have had WORDS with Da Conz if she stole MY corndog.... Corndogs are yummy!!!

FYI, Charbunkle-- dog water is not yummy.

Erin - I believe that Charlie would beg to differ with you on that second point.
