Okay, this is a GROSS dog and rabbit story, so if you are easily offended or have a delicate stomach STOP reading now...

My mom lives with my youngest brother and three border collies which as you imagine, offers multiple opportunities for putting the fun in dysfunction... One of the collies, "Thorn" hunts and catches rabbits whenever possible. He had made a successful catch earlier in the day and consumed it in what would later prove to be large chunks. Brother got home from work late and let the dogs in (Mom was already asleep). Apparently a hastily consumed rabbit can give one an upset stomach. Thorn proceeds to hack/hork (if he were a cat it would have been blook-blook) the rabbit back up. My brother realizes what the dog has done by studying the first pile of evidence which was shortly followed up with two more piles the smell and sight of which made HIM lose his lunch. He put the dogs outside and then got a couple of pans from the kitchen to carefully cover each pile somewhat masticated rabbit bits.

Then he left them there for my mom to "discover" and clean up in the morning... Can you imagine waking up and wondering what is under the three pans in the middle of the living room? Then making the ghastly discovery? ughhh...
