Customs

There was a show on American border patrols and customs on TV tonight. One of the customs officers was a dog named Dixie. She searched baggage for food, since it is illegal to bring unsealed food into the USA to prevent bacteria and such things to come in. A young man had to pay a fine of $ 300 for having a sandwich in his bag. He denied that it was his intent to smuggle it in, of course, but who would not? This was a good catch by the customs dog.

Sometimes, I wish I could have a job as important as this customs dog. I am not complaining, but there might be more to life than this. On the other hand, I am quite happy with my life as a pet and show dog and a mum. The mum part is rewarding and important, and so is the show dog part.
