“Who stole the cookies from the cookie jar?”
Not me person. I didn’t do it.
“Then who?”
Person, I don’t know. Are you sure my younger person didn’t eat the rest of those cookies? You know how much he likes them.
He wouldn’t what?
__
Oh.
He might leave the lid on the carpet in the other room. You never know. Maybe he got all excited when he was eating those cookies and forgot what he was doing.
Well, if he didn’t do it, I don’t know who did.
Oh look. There he is. Right by the evidence. Scratchy did it. He’s right there checking it out. Proof that he did it.
What? Of course he did. That Scratchy is always up to no good.
Okay, let me check. I bet I can prove it to you.
Hmmm. I think I left a few crumbs in here.

Bongo, you are very talented. I wish I could get the lid off the cookie jar.
Bongo

Lola, the lid on this cookie jar is pretty easy to get off. The trick is reaching the jar when it’s way in the back corner of the counter.

You naughty dog 🙂

Sweet Kitten, I hope you still love me.

Bongo, I still love you very much … As long as you don’t steal my cookies 🙂
Bongo

Sweet Kitten, I promise I won’t steal your cookies.

Tsk tsk tsk! I’d never be that naughty.
Love and licks, Winnie
Bongo
February 20, 2012 at 11:14 am
Winnie, you’re big enough. I bet you could reach that cookie jar too.
Jen
February 20, 2012 at 10:51 am
Hah! You almost got away with the perfect crime. Now you remember what not to do for the next time 😉
Bongo
February 20, 2012 at 11:16 am
Jen, I’ve got to remember to leave the cookie jar lid on the counter. Then my person will just think my younger person ate them all. My person made more cookies and stashed them all in a cupboard where I can’t reach them.

Never, never admit guilt Bongo! Good one blaming it on Scratchy and diverting your humans attention! LOL!
Bongo
February 20, 2012 at 11:20 am
Bassetmomma, I keep trying to blame Scratchy but for some reason my person never believes me.

Oh Dog! Those humans are so sneaky! I think they watch too much CSI…. canine scene investigation.
Bongo
February 20, 2012 at 11:22 am
Rumpy, someone really needs to take that show off the air. It gets me in trouble every time.

If the lid doesn’t fit, you must acquit. 😉
Bongo

Great rhyme Brown Dawgs. I’m still sticking to my word that Scratchy did it though.

I try the “blame the kitty” thing too. For some reason, it never gets me anywhere either!
Bongo
February 20, 2012 at 3:41 pm
Sage, I think the cats have our people hoodwinked into thinking they are perfect.
Flo
February 20, 2012 at 3:01 pm
Oh Bongo. Sometimes you’ve just got to come clean… furrow your brow and look adorable. They can’t help forgiving you. Trust me, it works.
Bongo
February 20, 2012 at 3:42 pm
Flo, my people usually don’t stay mad at me very long. I guess that charm thing does work.
The Love of a Dog
February 20, 2012 at 3:18 pm
Oh Bongo…You just need to tell your person to make you your own special cookies! That way you don’t have to share or get blamed! But, in a pinch, looking cute and clueless while you blame someone else works too 🙂
Bongo
February 20, 2012 at 3:44 pm
Love of a Dog, my person made me some cookies once, but I’ve got to get her to do it again. I still like the people cookies too, so I guess I’ll go on blaming Scratchy. Thanks for commenting.

Bongo, I really wish your person would leave a “Bongo cam” around the house!
Bongo
February 20, 2012 at 5:35 pm
Wonderbutt’s person, my person says if they weren’t so expensive she would definitely do that. I’m glad she’s not. I might really get into trouble.

Hi Bongo!
This is Ginger the collie with all the answers… always leave a half a cookie in Scratchy’s bed or bowl…. that way scratchy gets the blame and you keep getting cookies! 🙂 Great post, we all loved it!
Your friend,
Ginger the naughty collie
Bongo
February 20, 2012 at 6:58 pm
Ginger, you do have all the answers. I never would have thought of that, although by the time I remember I may only have a few crumbs left for Scratchy’s bowl. Do you think that will be enough?
Patricia
February 20, 2012 at 6:31 pm
I think you must learn to put the lid back where you got it. Why would you put it on the carpet anyway? Oh, I know, so Scratchy could play with it and leave his paw prints on it for the crime lab to find. Smart.
Bongo
February 20, 2012 at 7:00 pm
Patricia, putting the lid back is harder than getting it off, but it does help when Scratchy leaves his paw prints all over it – or at least I thought it would help.
Patricia
February 20, 2012 at 7:19 pm
Well, Bongo, we all know it is practically impossible to resist cookies…so your person forgives your lapse of manners I am sure.
Bongo
February 21, 2012 at 12:32 am
Patricia, I usually don’t get into too much trouble – but my person has put the cookies in a cupboard now where I can’t get to them.

Bongo the Monday Mischief is very cool…..(we are not focusing on the crummy deal with the missing cookies…)
Bongo
February 20, 2012 at 7:01 pm
Karen, glad you liked my mischief – but I really do have to work on those crum

Hahahaha! I often frame the little person Bongo and sometimes get away with it! 🙂
Bongo
February 21, 2012 at 12:33 am
Great going Bassa. It doesn’t matter who gets blamed as long as it’s not us dogs.
Dexter Dog
February 21, 2012 at 12:36 am
Until the last picture I was convinced it was Scratchy!
Bongo
February 21, 2012 at 12:38 am
Dexter, I think I was framed.

O, O, Bongo, you are soooo naughty, but so adorable, who could ever blame you? 😀
Bongo
February 21, 2012 at 11:35 am
Angelswhisper, that’s what I say. Who can blame me? I couldn’t help myself.

February 21, 2012 at 3:21 am
Oh, no, Bongo!!! Human cookies?! I bet if I ask you “was it worth it?” you’ll say “every last crumb!”, huh?
Bongo
February 21, 2012 at 11:36 am
Marina, you’re right. It was worth it to every last crumb – and I’d do it again in a minute. Too bad my person is putting the cookies in a cupboard I can’t reach now.
eripanwkevin
February 21, 2012 at 6:17 am
Bongo, you’re very funny!!! You shouldn’t have checked the bowl! BOL!
I think it could have been Scratchy who stole the cookies because my cat brofur likes human cookies very much. We didn’t know that cats loves cookies until our cat has proved it. 🙂
Bongo
February 21, 2012 at 11:37 am
Kevin, I’ve got to tell my person what you said. She thinks Scratchy won’t eat cookies. You and I know different.

So cute, Bongo! Best never to admit to anything. 🙂
Bongo
February 21, 2012 at 11:38 am
Katie, I’ll try to remember next time to stay far away from the evidence.

So many, many talents! I’m not surprised though. Hugs Bongo. 🙂

Geraldine, I pride myself in all I can do. Just don’t tell my people it’s me doing it. I’ll stop over in awhile and see what Mr. Cheddar is up to.

I think someone should call super dog into this.. he can figure out this case!
Bongo
February 21, 2012 at 11:53 am
Viciously Sweet, Super Dog didn’t do it – I mean, yeah that’s a good idea. Super Dog will figure it out. I bet he’ll prove that Scratchy did it.

Ok Bongo, here’s a quick course in thievery: Ya gotta get rid of the evidence! That includes putting the cookie jar back. Guess you’ll just have to practice more…
Bongo
February 21, 2012 at 6:42 pm
Sandra, I’ve got to practice putting that lid back on the jar. Then my person will think my younger person ate the cookies and won’t even ask me.

February 21, 2012 at 6:12 pm
Oh Bongo! Madam L says to make sure you eat ALL the crumbs so you’re not tempted to go back. That’s when you get caught!
Bongo
February 21, 2012 at 6:45 pm
Thanks for the advice Madam Lasagna. I still need some lessons in hiding my tracks.

February 21, 2012 at 11:51 pm
Thanks Henry. I just wish my person didn’t know me so well. I never seem to get away with anything around here.
