Grandma Nell Reached for the Best Apple. Waffles Went for the Ones on the Ground.

The apple tree is heavy with red fruit, and Grandma Nell reaches up to take the nearest one, her eyes on the branch and her curly gray hair framed by leaves. She wears glasses, a gray cardigan and a denim shirt, with a woven basket of apples at her side. Waffles is down at ground level with his black, tan and white coat bright in the sun, nose pressed to a fallen apple and ears dragging in the grass. Red apples dot the ground around them, and a watering can and a blue basket of fabric sit beside the fence in the background.

A Beagle in an orchard is a dog in heaven, since every windfall has an interesting smell. Fallen fruit can be fermenting, which can make a dog sick, and may be covered in insects or mold, so keep your dog from eating it. A few small pieces of fresh apple are fine for most dogs, but remove the core and seeds, which can be a choking risk and contain a compound that is harmful in large amounts. Beagles are food-driven and can overeat quickly, so keep treats modest and talk to your vet about your dog's weight. Watch for bees around fallen fruit, and keep your dog on a leash.

Waffles is working on his own personal harvest. Grandma Nell is filling the basket, and both of them are very pleased with the day.
