Movie Night Snacks Disappeared. The Spaniel Was Still in the Bag.
The chip bag has burst, and a buff Cocker Spaniel is sitting right in the middle of it with golden ear feathers falling over his shoulders. Potato chips are heaped around his paws, crumbs cover the table, and the crinkled foil curls up behind him like a silver nest. He's looking off to one side with an expression that says he's thinking about something far away. A pair of keys, a notepad and a cup sit at the back of the cluttered room. We'll call him Butterscotch.
Salty snacks are not a good choice for dogs. Chips are high in salt and fat, and large amounts can lead to an upset stomach or worse, while flavorings such as onion or garlic powder are harmful to dogs. The foil bag itself can also be a problem if swallowed. The safest approach is to keep snack bags on high shelves or inside a closed cabinet, and to call your vet if your dog eats a lot. Cocker Spaniels are friendly, food-loving dogs with an eager nose, so measured meals and daily walks help them stay trim and happy.
Butterscotch seems to be hoping that if he avoids eye contact, the chips will disappear on their own. They won't, and neither will the crumbs in his fur. For now he sits like a king on a golden throne, wondering if anyone will let this one slide.
