Genie's Fable

We once owned a little mutt named Genie on occasion we called her Genie Panini we tried not to feed her table scraps n' stuff but then again, I had her heart on my cuff so once in a while, we gave her little bits to keep at bay her continuous barking fits Each night hubby would eat a bowl of cheerio while watching T.V. or listening to the stereo Genie watched intently eyes peeled to the bowl the ritual worked well, for she never stole he gave her 1, there was nothing she could do so she crunched it while she lay beside his shoe One day hubby went to answer the door and left Genie hopped on the couch and left him bereft she ate all the cheerios but she did leave him one when he returned he saw an empty bowl no fun He'd been outsmarted by a funny little Shih Tzu with Pomeranian smack, who knew what to do. Moral of the story: Never trust a dog, when it comes to food. Feb. 7, 2021
