The joker(s)

Acting time again - I wanted a pic to illustrate the Alphabet Challenge J is for Joker. I thought of having a dog popping out of the food bin like a jack-in-the-box. Merlin usually does the stunts - he's a born actor, very quickly realises what is required but he is too big for this one so it had to be a poodle - or think of something else. Pixie was the obvious choice as she's smaller but I thought Sprite may be more confident - and so he was  - and he enjoyed the reward too!
( he was not sitting on the food - I covered it with a dog towel)
