We picked up a shopping cart outside in the parking lot. I figured we’d have a little chance to practice before going down the aisles. No practice required! Didn’t bother him one bit. What did bother him was that I was wasting time outside when there were sales inside!

Selecting a new Bat Cave:

“I like this one!”

“Hey, it’s on Sale so I can get a bed too.”

cs_100_2366

“Come on—it fits.”  (He has done all of this on his own. OK, I put it on the floor—otherwise he was going to try it on while on the shelf.)

“Heathly Fiesta sounds pretty good!”  Oh for gosh sake, Batman! Karen just fainted.

He almost chose an Air Dog until he found the soft squeaky toys.

He REALLY wanted that third monkey. Grabbed it and pulled the display off the wall. The monkey had some type of rattle beads inside so I said to choose something else. The Batling selected a large gutless beaver and people were laughing at him as he took his beaver to his shopping cart.

Batman is a born shopper. He and Jennie will do quite well together. 😉

Dear Tom, Just whisper in Karen’s ear, “He bought Gravy Train instead!” That should make her gasp and bring her back to life. 🙂

Irene I was thinking Old Roy too! So I will add Kibbles and Bits…and does anyone remember the old purina stuff we use to feed it wasn’t kibble like we know it now. It reminded me of something they baked on a cookie sheet and then smashed up.

LOL although he does seem to be a rather discerning shopper. I wonder what he liked about the third monkey. He is a Gavin – Zucca kid….but he really reminds me of an Allie kid.

@Karen Murray
Yes, I remember the Purina Dog Chow, cookie sheet stuff. In the winter my Dad used to pour hot coffee over it before he fed his hunting dogs. Could you imagine our dogs if they had coffee??

I raised Flemish Giants too! Only they were not given the hot coffee treat. My father’s father also had hunting dogs. In the winter my Grandmother made the dogs hot stew with bread and coffee added to it. One night my grandfather came home late and found the stew on the stove and ate it. He said that it was the best stew she’d ever made! My grandmother said, “You stupid son of a bitch—that was the dogs’ food!” I’m not sure if she called him that for saying it was the best of her cooking, or for eating the dogs’ dinner. I think I get some of my charming personality from that grandmother. 😉

Karen, just open a bottle of wine. As you stare at the bag keep taking sips of wine. Pretty soon the bag will say Orijen.
