Oh, where do I begin?!  I adopted Madison (a female toy white poodle) from a shelter last November....and late one night, about 4 months after we "met", Madison dove into the kitchen garbage without breaking the garbage back or scattering anything inside it!  Not only had my precious little pooch gone"dumpster diving," she ate an ENTIRE package of moldy tofu turkey which I had inadvertently thrown out (and put in the bottom of the bag, still in its

plastic) earlier that day.  

OMG!  I never panicked so much in my life - calling my mother, pet emergency help, and any vet I could find. They all said to watch her overnight and see what happens.  Well, I stayed up with Madison all night long - afraid she'd throw up or choke or whatever.  Iunderstood that night how a first-time parent feels about their child.

Needless to say, Madison was FINE!  Nothing happened - she went to the bathroom the next day without incident.  I couldn't stop laughing at how worried I was when I realized my dog had a stomach of steel.  And, of course, I take out the kitchen garbage when there's any type of food in it.

Now, we're approaching our one year anniversary (her "created" birthday) and when I'm not around, she still dives into the garbage - but in the

bathroom....ick. (And yes, I've tried closing the door.  She's figured out

how to open it!)

I never thought my perfect little furry girl could be so naughty!!!!!
