My Dad's a jeweler. He once had our (then) new puppy in the back of the store with him when a customer's loose diamond squirted out of his tweezers, and she slurped it right up. He had to follow her around for the rest of the day waiting for her to take a squat, and she finally gave it up at about 3:00 am Thanksgiving day. Picking through dog poo for diamonds makes for a memorable Thanksgiving.
And let me tell you, he sanitized the HELL out of that thing when it was out.
I didn't watch! I was spoiled in advance, though. Can't wait to watch higlights when ABC.com posts the episode (I can't pay attention to an entire Bachelor/Bachelorette episode, there's too much stupid; I fast-forward to the juicy parts).
