Shopping with Monty

I like to shop for bits of lace and fabric to use in my Nuno Felt projects.  A favorite place to look is The Attic in Coronado.  I took my Monty boy with me this time and we discovered this really cute little vintage poodle.  At first Monty was a bit leery of his new friend, but as you can see they discovered that they had much in common and were more alike than different.  

Felt is NOT a food group

Try telling that to my boy Monty.  Yesterday he got into the studio while I was gone and ate a piece of magenta pre felt.  While I admire his color choice, things did not go well.   I will spare you the details, but he did seem to be getting rid of the excess fiber and I thought all was well until 1:00 am when I woke to the sounds of one very distressed pup.  So of course we wound up in the doggie emergency hospital.  They fixed him up, I paid the bill, and this morning he is a more subdued version of himself, but recovering nicely.  Do dogs, at least smart little poodles, get cause and effect?  His breeder thinks he should, but I wouldn't bet a $$$$$$ trip to the emergency hospital on it!
