I initially thought about Hot Dogs and going over to the local Costco for the $1.50. :)

That is $1.50 hot dog and a soda can't beat that deal!!LOL

Speaking of hot dogs... I read a story about someones dachshund on a leash getting eaten by a gator when the owners weren't watching... gators have to eat as well. :)

here is one of thousand stories of hero dogs:

Benjamin Jorden and his wife thought they had found the perfect babysitter for their son. They went through several interviews, and finally settled on Alexis Khan. For five months, they left their baby Finn, and their dog Killian, in her care.

After a few months, Ben and his wife Hope noticed that their dog was starting to act aggressively toward Alexis. The normally mild-mannered pup even had to be restrained a few times when she came in the door. Sensing that something might be up, Ben and Hope placed a tape recorder under the couch while they were away and discovered something disturbing.

Not only was Alexis verbally abusive to Finn, she was also physically abusive. When the cops were involved, the babysitter received one to three years in jail for her crimes. Had the Jorden’s dog not been there to warn them, something much worse could have happened to their son!

Please, always listen to your instincts – and your dog!!
