Somehow , Alaskan klee kaisApple and Jack — overnice — knew to eat the exact amount of drawing slate that still allowed their parents to hoard their winning .
Last week , staff at the Oregon Lottery received a missive , a photo of the two dogs , and a shoot down - up ticket , the drawing saidon its internet site . The alphabetic character contained the story , good manners of Nathan and Rachael Lamet : 2 - class - former Jack and 11 - calendar month - one-time Apple thought the slate might be tasty , so they rive it aside and corrode some of it .

The Salem couple sent the ticket to the lottery to see if the folks there could restore it and determine whether it was a victor .
" Along with this note is the remainder of the lottery slate that was left , " the Lamets publish . " And a picture of the vandals for test copy and because they are cunning . "
They ’d pull up stakes the slate on an ottoman , and Rachael did n’t call back the remaining pieces could be verified . But Nathan " think it was hilarious " and assured her " it ’s for certain a winner . "
So they sent it in . Lottery staff , the literal heros of this story , bring off to reconstruct the $ 3 Pharaoh ’s Gold Crossword ticket . It was an $ 8 winner — and they know just how they ’re live to drop it .
" That ’s too funny , " Rachael told the drawing . " We are by all odds convey morechew toy , they go through a lot . We love them , but they are crazy sometimes . "
Congrats to Apple and Jack for their well - clear $ 8 , and congrats to me for make it through this post without realize a too - easy " dog exhaust my prep " joke .
