toilet water, etcetera
I expend a lot of effort maintaining a water bowl in the kitche for the dog
and cats, with ice, and refrigerated water, etcetera, and then I find the dog in the bathroom, with his mug in the bowl, lapping the not really clean and not really cold water . I expend a lot of effort preparing Lucky's meals, only to have him act like he can take it or leave it, and then when we are walking outside, he finds a scrap of bone with meat on it, and he acts like it is delicious . Mike. |

Mike. Not only that, I'll bet that you go to a pet store and buy expensive toys for him, only to find that he prefers to play with sticks and paper towel rolls and empty soda bottles. 1. Put the lid down. [A toilet-water-drinking dog is the best cure for the "I can't be bothered to close the lid" syndrome, especially if said dog likes to bestow kisses on faces.] 2. Teach him "leave it." 3. Save your money - give him empty soda bottles. FurPaw -- The plural of anecdote is not proof. To reply, unleash the dog. |
