Is the gin for you or Joy . Cooper is the first dog I've had that was not a TeeTotaler. We have to watch our beer glasses when she is around, (not just for her tail)
Ha! When Joy was younger she showed an interest in alcohol, but she was busy exploring absolutely EVERYTHING so I think that was just part of that stage. This being Labrador number 5 we have developed lightening fast reactions for whenever a tail threatens anything on the coffee table.This involves thrusting a hand between object and tail and shouting 'Tail! Tail!' at any visitors with less awareness of tail hazards.
