dog issues

We are having a dog issue at our house 


    Maybe it was just today.  I don't know.

    I made Beth her usual breakfast..... half a cup of kibble and 2 tsps of wet food, in this case chicken and salmon.

    Which actually sounds pretty good.  I love chicken and salmon.  But I digress.

    I put water in it, set it on the floor and wished her a good breakfast.

    She went over, sniffed it, and walked away. She did this several times over the next hour.

    I finally dumped the food and put dry kibble in her bowl.

     Sh immediately ate the food!

    Huh, said myself.

    So tonight for supper, I put kibble in her bowl and put the wet food in a smaller dish. She ate the wet food.

    Here comes the strange part.

    I sat on the floor and held the kibble bowl up to her face.  She would not eat.

    I got her spoon (and yes, only she uses t.  It is not a people spoon.) and put a little on the spoon and held it out to her.

    She ate it.

    Then she ate all of her kibble one spoonful at a time, with me feeding her!

    Now I love my dog, but I am not going to spoon feed her every day!  And I hate having to toss dog food away because it has been sitting out untouched for a couple of hours.

    Grrr.

    I did get part of my garden planted.  Tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, Italian beans and peas are in.  I replanted the peas because the package says I should see sprouts in 7-14 days and it has been over 2 weeks. 

    Tomorrow I hope. to get green beans and carrots in, but I don't have any kore string or stakes to mark rows.

    I also hope to get edging done tomorrow and maybe some mulch spread.  Maybe.

    Hopefully all the stuff is done this week.

    But if I take anymore 90 minute naps like I did today, it won't .  Evidently last night's show wore me out more than I thought!

Peace and Love
