the eating machine

Meet Billie. She's 13 weeks old, a golden retriever, a capricorn.

She enjoys the outdoors, unless it's raining or has rained recently. She doesn't like walking in puddles, but she'll happily roll around in wet soil and shove her face fully into it.

She will eat anything when we're not watching. To date:

• backyard mushrooms

• ants

• a spider

• bird poo

• garden bark

• a piece of string

• a block of cheese

• our entire vine of almost ready to harvest russian tomatoes

• a usb stick

She's also pretty crap at toilet training, but we'll get there.

Lucky she's so freaken cute.
