My mom's lab loves veggies too.
My dog, Duke, watches me pick beans and peas then go back after I leave a pokes at the plants. I always catch him in time now though, I know him too well. He does grab the apples off the trees though (only dwarf trees - perfect height for him). At first I think he thought they were a ball since they look just like his Kong, but now he thinks it a game I figure. They're nice apples too. Anything within reach is gone. :roll:
