Never, ever, ever say 'Cookie' within a half mile of Shiva. Kharma is almost as bad, but she doesn't have the uncontrollable, reflexive reaction Shiva does. Kharma will wait until she actually see me going to the "cookie place" on top of the refrigerator (only place they can't get to) before she lopes across the floor and sits down and forms puddles of drool on the floor. Shiva EXPLODES across the room, drool flying at the very mention . . . sometimes if I just LOOK at the top of the 'fridge!
I have never had a dog as food oriented as she is. I swear, her brain just completely falls out of her head!
