Having to watch this more than once, this was simply _priceless,_ and beyond amusing! ... The dog depicted here _had_ to have been but a beagle! Growing up, our family owned (at different times) three female beagles, the last of which we had was named Sara. Sure enough, other than being able to go out for daily walks, _food,_ of any kind, was most definitely her biggest - if not sole - reason for being the greedy li'l 'Pig-dog' beagle she so inadvertently imbued upon others. As downright intelligent (at figuring things out for themselves) as they naturally are, I couldn't help imagining 'Sara' in this very particular 'short': i.e. starting out, covertly pretending first to be a friendly 'bystander', only then to eventually outwit both the patron, as well as the sniffed-out goal - the bag of chips itself! Still thinking of you often, Sara - even after all these years - you were perhaps my best, and loyal, friend I ever had ... _Requiescat in pace._
I have a Boxer/Redbone mix that is the ultimate counter-surfing ninja. At 70# she is totally silent, and you will find nothing disturbed on the counter. Not even the now empty dish will have been moved.
