Drive-thru dog

Jordan Fifer, an online producer for roanoke.com, sent me this photo of a hungry hound at the Burger King on Franklin Road here in Roanoke. Fifer speculated the pooch was told to pull up and wait for his drive-thru order. I hate it when they ask me to do that.

 

 

 

 

Send your pet photos to pets@roanoke.com. And please have a safe and happy New Year!

  1. HaHa - this picture reminds me of Cali! On our way home Sunday, hubby and I stopped by Quizno's to grab something for dinner. While we were in line waiting for our order I looked out the window and saw Cali sitting up front, as if she was waiting to drive us home!!

  2. That picture is so cute! Such a patient hungry hound!!! Whenever I go through the drive-tru window, Holly almost jumps over me and out the window to get the bag of food.
