Using a dog,not yourself or a Parrot for making cuts?

OK,
Here's a weird one for consideration.
Dog sitting tonight,also doing a spirit run.
Just before the time I expected feints,the dog went crazy.
I ended up putting the dog outside.
It has stayed with me many times before,and never behaved so.
Has anyone else ever noticed dogs behaving like this,or am I going mad?
I wish my nose was as good!
OK,this isn't a pet forum;back to the serious talk of keg-welding..........
There is no ONE way.

Not doable Chuck, dogs only love the smell of Tails...they're always at it :D :D :D

You should borrow the dog to let you know when to switch to the feints collection jar. He'll know when long before you do :D :D

:D :D :D

I have two dogs, one is a Dalmatian and the other is a Labrador.

Both dogs won't even come into the kitchen when I'm doing a run.

Shame really as it would be great to have a Parrot-Dog

@Easydrinker
mate NFI about the cleverness of dogs regarding cuts etc although mine have a tendency to enjoy being about the LPG burner in winter, regardless of the type/stage of run I'm doing. ;)

However, I can tell you that, if you're running a 2 1/2" potstill in the shed, you should NEVER play ball with the dog in the same area. :-[
