Thinking about it, I wonder if black labradors eat them too? He eats
everything else, including wind-fall peaches. First dog we've had that goes
scrumping!


We've had several dogs which picked and ate strawberries, and
enjoyed apples. The present one only picks and eats blackberries.

Aren't they rich in Vitamin C? I seem to remember that stuff from when my
children were small called Rosehip Syrup. Perhaps that's why birds and
other animals stock up on them before winters gets going.
