Maybe there's already a thread about this, but I didn't see one.

I was just thinking about my previous dog that was POISONED BY THE PET FOOD INDUSTRY and thought of the time he stole almost an entire beef roast when he was just a couple of years old. 

We just ate a dinner of sliced beef, noodles, gravy, and vegetables and went into the office room to look at something on the computer for just a couple of minutes.  We left the plate of leftover beef covered in foil on top of the bowl of noodles.  We thought everything was pushed far back from the counter's edge.  Well, we were wrong, very wrong.  My dog had chowed down on the entire plate of beef, probably close to 4 pounds, in less than two minutes.  We didn't hear a thing.  The plate was sparkling clean, the aluminum foil upside down on the floor.  He kept doing these cute little burps the next few hours.  We ate plain noodles and gravy the next night.

The two dogs I have now are not very tall when standing, but are very long-bodied.  They can reach even further back on the counter than my previous dog, who was much taller and outweighed them by more than double.  I can't turn my back for a second with these two.  If I do, I have to put my one leg in the air as a barrier so they don't check out what's going on on top of the counter.  Their latest?  I was going to slice some pork from a roast for a cold pork sandwich.  I turned around for two seconds to get a plate and discovered my male licking the chunk of meat with gusto!  He was having a good time!  Well, needless to say, the dogs got the rest of the pork roast!   

Feel free to share a story of your food-stealing pet!  I'll bet you have some good ones about your dogs, cats, birds, ferrets, horses, snakes, etc.

When Ripley was maybe three months old, she came out of the kitchen
with a hot dog weiner almost as long as her whole body.  She could barely
fit it in her mouth.  My young son still talks about how funny she looked.

I can always tell when Daisy's little brain is working.  If is leave a breakfast plate on the coffee table and then go upstairs to get ready, Daisy will follow me upstairs like she usually does but then she sits at the top of the stairs.  As soon as I disappear into the bathroom, she heads straight downstairs to check the plate.  Very sneaky!

Years ago I had a dalmation for a trial run towards adoption. Well I was making my lunch for work the next day after dinner. The sandwich was on top of the counter and while I turned around to find a baggie and looked back, whoosh, sandwich gone, happy dog!

Last night, Thanka ( who will eat anything) started throwing up, there on the floor was a pile of something squishy, apparently the big goof decided to eat his dog bed??

So we gave him some pills to soothe his stomach, then about 3am, he starts whining and we get up and he has thrown up in his bed again. So outside with him, then change beds, more meds, etc.

Needless to say, we are quite upset, having lost one already this week.

I had a talk with all of them this week about no more getting sick, and then the goof does this,

aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Well today he passed more of it in his stool, hopefully it is all out of him.

aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

db my previous dog, Lady managed to drag my robe off the bathroom door, chew a huge hole in the whole back of the robe. When I looked for the pieces they were no where to be found - she had eaten all that fabric. Well I waited to see if she was going to throw up-nothing. Waited to see if the runs were next and again nothing-all normal. Figure she had to have a cast iron stomach - nothing bothered it.
