Augie the money eating dog
Does this dog look money hungry to you? He is a one-dog safety deposit box. Although, he deposited the money in pieces.
Augie, a 2-year-old greater Swiss mountain dog in Apex, N.C., ate $400 cash that Kelley Davis made working extra hours as a physical therapist, according to the News and Observer.
Before her errands, Davis, 42, set the cash on her bedroom bureau. Augie apparently helped himself.
Davis says when she took Augie for a walk Saturday, she found parts of three $100 bills and five $20s in his leavings. She washed the found money shards and hopes to find enough pieces to exchange them for cash.
Would you try to put the money back together?

Laundered money
Don't think so, doubt a bank would accept it.
Ouch, that's one expensive doggie dinner.
Easy come, easy go.
This is one for Ripley's. She must really love her dog.

My kitty ate one of my pearl earrings when she was a kitten. When I "discovered" it, the nacre was almost nonexistent. I think the bank could make an exception with the cash and exchange it for some that is usable. Let's hope they do!
Doug---Hilarious! Buddy-Ditto! :) Jackie-She must have a cast iron stomach. :) LM- Ditto! Carolyn-So true! Gail-I hope she get's lucky.
I'd like to think I'm above digging cash out of dog poo, but heck, $400? I'd be heading to the store for some of those yellow rubber gloves in a heartbeat.
LOL...Michelle, you have funny readers! Yes I most certainly would get that money. Hands wash, and so does cash. Tape it up, tell the bank my dog shredded it, and make a deposit from that deposit!
I can't even type, I am laughing too hard!!!
Boy, is that doggie in trouble or what? I am so glad that I know better than to eat up Mama's cashola!! I'm pretty cheap, I just eat the dollar store ball point pens!!
Buddy - usually "laundered money" is considered clean. I think this is the opposite. :-) I'd call the bank & then decide what to do. You'd go after jewelry, right? Yikes! All of you with short-legged (or very well-behaved) dogs are lucky!
