This dog knows before anyone else when food has been dropped;

is always first on the scene;

and he’s generally got whatever it is half-way in his mouth before I say he can have it.

… i think i’ll get him a yellow flashing light for his collar next birthday.

    OMFG yes.

    I once made myself a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, set it down on my coffee table to grab my remote and my dog had the whole thing in his mouth in less than a nano-second.

    Our eyes met and he froze, and then put it back on the plate. At that point it was his but I did not want the poor bugger to choke so I broke up and gave it to him.

    I loved that dog but he was a garage can.

    Anytime anyone makes food at the kitchen counter, Arlo comes over to wait for crumbs. He looks at us, looks at the floor, looks back at us. “Drop something.”

    “Oops. I ‘accidentally’ dropped some shredded cheese.”
