Most pet owners spoil their furry family members as a matter of course.
Some pets are allowed to sleep on the bed (we hold our hand up to that), or have their personal blanket and cushion in their own chair or sofa.
Some are even spoilt by surrogate Mummies putting the underfloor heating on so that their toes don’t get cold.
But today, MaggieΒ had waitress service.
We were introduced to latte coffee several years ago fancying something different and seeing two rather intriguing glasses being brought to the table next to ours.
We asked what they were, and told Latte Coffee. We’ve been hooked ever since, though mainly in the takeout department with a bacon roll as a side.
I’ve mentioned before that Maggie is rather partial to the froth, and will sit patiently waiting for her treat, getting her nose stuck right in and coming out looking like Santa with a brown beard and moustache.
Today is the first time since my op that I’ve walked the full length of the High Street, and we had a breather on the way back for coffee on our preferred bench by the traffic lights. Hubby treated me, and I sat outside with her ladyship.
As we began to people watch, one of the new ladies in the shop came out with a paper mug half filled with leftover frothy milk.
‘There’s no coffee or chocolate in it, ‘she said, ‘but rather than waste it, I thought she’d enjoy it.’
It was difficult to determine which bit of Maggie wasn’t wagging, as she tentatively licked the sides, then thrust her face fully into the cup, closing her eyes in nothing less than ecstasy.
And yes, she still had a bit of our froth afterwards!

Bless her!!!
Totally and utterly ruined I’m afraid. π
Lol! Same as my Sonu Singh!!!
It’s why we have them I suppose. π
True!!!
Isn’t it great when other people appreciate how special your pet is too? π
Happy Maggie!
And very well done to you for walking so far. π
Thanks. I’m feeling it though. Still, at least I know my limit, so can build on that.
Oh that’s lovely!
She’s a lucky girl isn’t she to be thought of like that. π
Glad to hear you were able to get out and about for a bit. I know Maggie enjoyed her walk, and her treat. I think my Cody would like the froth, too, but I’d have to be especially careful that she not get any coffee – she’s already too hyper!
We only give Maggie a little of the coffee froth, most of it sticks to her chin anyway!
Animals are a great example of how to enjoy life.

I love that story. Being a pet owner, and probably on the bottom tier of the ranking order in my house. Yes three dogs rule. I have never ever offered them latte though ha ha. Lucky Maggie and lucky you.
I believe dogs shouldn’t have coffee as a rule, but this is only the froth. These days we don’t have take out so she can’t have the cup, but will lick it off my finger! Thanks for the comment.
No I realise that I was saying it a little tongue in cheek. Just the froth would be devoured by mine. I actually donβt even give mine milk. We humanise our dogs so much. They are our family. I know mine are. I love them to bits. π
I know what you mean. Maggie is my baby and I didn’t realise about the coffee thing until someone mentioned it. She’s is spoilt, and it;s all my fault!! lol π
Iβm sure she deserves to be. π
