Brilliant Dog!

My daughter-in-law-to-be was telling me what her kids had been doing all afternoon with new friends: surfing the Webkinz site. As she was explaining to me what Webkinz is, I went to the site and clicked on “catalog.” There I saw the list of animals available including a chocolate lab! I read to her the description:
“Chocolate Labs are every bit as sweet as their name. This awesome dog is so energetic!" [understatement!] "Chocolate Labs love to swim, jump on trampolines, and ride on skateboards and scooters – pretty much anything that involves moving around! When your pup needs a break, pick up some Carob Chip Cookies!
Special Item: Cocoa Basket bed
Special Food: Carob Chip Cookies"

As I was reading, Guinness came over to me nudging me with his wet nose, begging for pets. He KNEW I was talking about him! He KNOWS that he is a chocolate lab! He actually KNOWS those words!!!! What a smart dog! I have always been convinced that dogs know when they meet a dog of their breed! He has heard me say “chocolate lab” enough that he knows it pertains to him! He has one up on Hershey with this revelation!
