One bored lunchtime...

It all started one lunchtime when I dropped a few crumbs of croissant on top of the pile of stones for the local robin to eat when passing. The dog actually sniffed out the few crumbs which wouldn't even constitute a snack for a robin, and would not rest until it had found and eaten them. The owner of the dog decided that it needed  a hand in getting up so placed himself in this position so that it could leap up from his back and land on the top of the stones.

The clueless dog needed a bit of encouragement to understand what was being offered, so someone else stepped in to give it a hand.

After about 4 minutes of confusion - on the dog's part - it began to get the idea.

'Look!' it seemed to say, 'I have climbed up onto his back like you wanted me to. Now what?'

Then it remembered the crumbs which it had been fixating on for so long before all this chaos started.

All this for a few flakes of croissant. I hope the robin wasn't watching.
