Gilbert the Good – the banana
The other day I noticed a lovely bunch of bananas on the kitchen work top. They looked delicious and my mouth was watering at the prospect of eating one. I sniffed and gazed and sniffed again.
I’ve often heard Janice telling Frankie to ‘help himself’ so I thought I could do the same. After all, I’m a big boy now and I like bananas very much, so I did what anydog would do and helped myself.
The bunch landed on the floor and I carefully separated one and took it to my bed. I was just about to eat it when my humans noticed and removed it. I was disappointed but also very proud of myself; there were no toothmarks on the banana and it wasn’t at all bruised.
We
Labradors have very soft mouths.

Ha ha! They do get up to such mischief don't they?
ReplyDeleteThey're very entertaining.
DeleteLOL. Poor Gilbert!
ReplyDeleteHe does try . . .
DeletePoor Gilbert, denied his banana. but are they okay for dogs to eat?
ReplyDeleteDogs and bananas are fine. Gilbert and Roxy really enjoy an occasional banana.
Deletesooo funny and cute, the other day I was making toast and had left a slice of bread on the counter top..........turned my back for a moment then, realised the slice was missing, Jas the lab looking up at me with guilty eyes the whole slice being held oh so gently in that soft mouth.......she gave it up to me , one eyebrow raised " Just trying to help Mum....." π

DeleteGilbert, you are indeed an amazing dog. Now that banana will go to a deserving human.
ReplyDelete. . . and maybe a little will go to each dog . . .
DeleteOh Gilbert - caught out! I can't imagine what banana does to your digestive system? My friend's dog eats everything his humans eat except lettuce and celery - but he doesn't get human meals just his own specially prepared ones. Perhaps you need to perfect big soft eyes along with that soft retriever mouth.
ReplyDeleteGilbert says: Roxy and I both love bananas - and carrots - and celery, but they are only occasional treats, sadly . . .
ReplyDeleteOh dear, Gilbert, being caught out after so much effort must have been quite the letdown! xxx
ReplyDeleteHe did look rather disappointed. . . x x x
DeleteAww LOL Gilbert is a sweetie :)
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan

He is - and he knows it!
DeleteI suppose Gilbert couldn't be rewarded with the whole banana but I would have been very tempted if confronted with that sweet face.
ReplyDeleteSometimes he does have a whole banana - it goes down almost in one!
