I may have to move out of the house soon, the zucchini is getting so big it might just move in, take over the couch and start helping itself to drinks from the fridge.
See those suspicious tooth marks?
Well, I got me a zucchini plant. There is no denying it. I also have a zucchini stealing dog. Last week, I put up a cheap little fencing thing-a-ma-jig to prevent any dog related shenanigans. Two nights ago, I stuck the dogs out to potty, and when I went to let them in, Betty was laying on the ground, resting her head on the little fence. The above zucchini, still on the plant, was less than a foot from her face. She was attempting to act very innocent. "I'm just resting here, this is what dogs do." *eye roll* When I went to look closer, the fencing was smooshed around where she was trying to steamroll through it, and this zucchini had tooth scrapes on it! What a terrible dog. The zuc could have used another day or two to get bigger, but I went and rescued the poor thing anyway. No one's teeth marks are allowed on these except mine and the patient man-half's!
Don't be fooled. This is a cold, hard zucchini thief.
