Chocolate catastrophe

My gorgeous girl is perfect in every way. But she does have one (very small) flaw...she's the most terrible moocher. Anywhere there is food, so is Poppy! In fact, food even trumps walkies, given the choice of both at once :)

I got a fright the other day, though, when I found lots of cake crumbs on the kitchen floor. (I have a baby gate to keep her out of the kitchen, but in this instance, I obviously hadn't pulled it fully closed when I nipped through to the other room). Anyway - she'd found chocolate cake remnants in the food waste bin recycling thingy. CHOCOLATE cake. The worst possible kind for a dog to eat :S

After a full 24 hours with a few signs of (mild, thankfully) toxicity, she's now back to her bouncy, mischievous self. And back to mooching! Never thought I'd be thankful for that :)
