My boyfriend and I have a four and a half month old Labrador Retriever that is just as black as black can be. His name is Buddy, and he is, indeed, everyone's buddy. I have never encountered an animal with so much energy and such an ability to create chaos. In a matter of moments he can urinate on the floor, bounce over to the coffee table, use one of his gigantic paws to break a glass full of soda, and lick the skin off of the lower half of my face. I'm telling you, this kid is a hand full.
The other night I was sitting on the sofa, playing tug-a-war with dear Buddy. He tired of the game and jumped onto the sofa to give some kisses. Buddy loves the kisses. He made his way to my ear and I suddenly felt a sharp pain. Buddy had managed to bite my earring out of my ear and swallow it before I even knew what had happened. Days later we found the back of the earring in the sofa, but I am fearful the little silver heart the embellished my right ear lobe has vanished forever. That particular set of earrings were a gift I gave myself after graduating from law school... a bright, shiny pair of sterling silver earrings from Tiffany's. My dog has good taste.

Bummer. Those are cute earrings. I guess there are some ways you could still try to retrieve the earring, but it may not be worth it!
