Default Reloading effort thwarted by English Setter

Absolutly beautiful evening last night. Was supposed to shoot sporting clays but it got rescheduled for next Thursday. I decided to finish up reloading the rest of my AA 20 hulls with 3/4 oz and green dot. I use the CB 1078 wad, so I have to put a Cheerio on top the shot to get a good crimp(the 3/4 oz wad is ordered). I went out of the garage to grab a beer, and when I came back , my setter Betty was standing on her hind legs with her front paws on the bench and had just finished wolfing down my supply of Cheerios. That ended the evenings reloading. I see this will be an ongoing problem as this morning when I let her out of the crate, she ran over to the bench and looked for more cheerios.Oh well, it could be worse.

Thanks Harold. I needed a good laugh this morning and you provided it. Regardless of some of their transgressions, life would be a whole lot less enjoyable without our furry companions.

Cheers
Marcus

Good one Harold. You should focus on a better training regime for your setter. They can be trained to retrieve a beer from the fridge. Have'nt you seen the Bud Lite commercials?
