White Dog came in from last night's walk and made a beeline for the bed. This usually means she has something she shouldn't. It seems at some point on the route White Dog "found" a stuffed toy dog wearing a Santa hat. This object has become today's treasure (of course, we slept with it, too). In the early morning White Dog went out for relief and returned with one of Max's rawhide bones. This purloined "loot" also slept with us and has been guarded all day. The new toy now bears the name "Stolen," and White Dog proudly, unremorseful of her thievery, brings it when asked.
