Dogs and peas by
Lee J. Moore
Peas aren't dangerous to dogs are they? A few hours ago I
stripped 2kg of peas from their pods and drained them. I went
upstairs and came back down to find the colander on the floor,
no peas and the dog (11month old GSD) looking up at me rather
innocently. He's been consigned to the garden since...
