My dog, Guinness, is quite the character. This evening we went on about a 1/2 mile walk. It was close to dinner time and he knows the word, "dinner" quite well. About a city block from home I was getting tired of him stopping relentlessly to sniff or mark this bush, that spot in a lawn or on a tree, .... Finally I asked him if he wanted "dinner". He literally stopped in the middle of raising his leg near a small tree and headed for home as directly as possible. There wasn't a single pause for the rest of the walk home. He took me straight home and then kept a steady stare on me until his dinner was served. Guinness is no dummy.
Last night I flew my powered paraglider & Guinness came along. After flying, some beers were shared. I put out a bowl of water for Guinness just after starting my beer. He sniffed it, and let us know that he would rather have some beer too. A good portion of his water was poured out to make room for a healthy amount of beer. He promptly drank all of it. A little later I learned that while I was packing my aircraft after my flight that one of my friends had shared quite a bit of beer with him too. Guinness is quite the begging lush it seems. What a great dog he is!
He goes with me quite regularly when I fly my powered paraglider. I refer to him as my, "ground crew."
