Geocache Description:

The above co-ordinates are not those of the cache.

PLEASE NOTE. The actual cache location was slightly changed on 6/8/18. After that date, the "NEW" dog's conversation (as shown below) should be decoded.

Purely by chance,I overheard my two dogs chatting to each other today.

They obviously didn't realise that I was listening to them since they were discussing all sorts of information that any sensible dog would keep from its human. Things like, where the best smelling lamp post is, and what type of cow pat is favourite to roll in.

One choice tidbit that I learned from their conversation was the tale that all dogs tell to each other. It's the old old one about the "first ever dog" who buried the "biggest bone in the world", and who then forgot where he had left it.

Over the years, many dogs have searched for this mythical bone (you have probably seen them digging away trying to find it).

My dogs thought that they had, at last, worked out the location of this treasure. They were sure that it was hidden at

When my dogs finally realised that I was listening to them, they very quickly stopped talking and pretended that they wanted to play with a ball.

Mind you, that treasure sounds as if it might be worth looking for. It shouldn't be too hard to find now that you have been told where it is!

Whats that? You don't speak dog language?

I'm sure that you can work it out if you try.
