Today she got something. HEB has a tub of rolls for 5 for a dollar. We like to buy them for our sandwiches. Since I don't really like sandwiches, I really only like them if they're on good bread. Athena found this bag of rolls while sniffing around and she got lucky that the bag had untwisted and opened. So she snatched one. I turned around right when she was pulling her head out and grabbed it out of her mouth. But the damage was already done. Nobody in this house was going to eat a roll with dog teeth marks in it. I was faced with two choices. Waste the roll completely and throw it away. Or just let her eat it. Since with dogs every punishment or reward has to be given within seconds of the dog's action otherwise they don't get it, I decided it was ok to just give her the roll. End of story.
Or not. Athena, like lots of other dogs, likes to hide her big treats. For example, we gave her a bone for christmas, and she just kept hiding it in my in-laws back yard. I got tired of looking for it, so we ended up just leaving it there. I don't know where; just somewhere. This roll was no different. She decided to hid it away for a rainy day. But since she was in the house, there is obviously a limit on where she can bury it. So where did she chose to stash it? Luckily in plain sight. She tucked it in the open side pocket of my flute case.
About ten minutes later, when she was concerned since I was near it, she came back over and got it and decided to eat it any way.
