Did some digging (get it) and here's Chester. One of several Golden Retrievers I had over the years. By far the smartest and sweetest animal that ever lived. Not a field dog by any means, he hated loud noises. Shotgun noise, he'd be gone for good. Summertime thunderstorms, he'd hear them way before us and head for the bathtub and start digging a hole to China. Good news is he never had to get his nails clipped.
He'd grab anything fair game around the house, shoes, socks, the TV remote and parade around the house until he got his treat. Too bad they don't live for generations like parrots. This was a real good one. Here's some of his adventures.
