ok pals,
with a little dective work i solved cricket's demand of the fridge contents. it seems my neighbor ( who sits with him some during day) had bought bolonga and was giving a piece each day while i was at work. mmmmmmm, see i had help spoiling him. lol
now i know why he doesn't like dog food all of a sudden.
but solving it don't help, he still wants it. ahhh the stress of being a pet parent to a disabled pet, hard to say no.
my neighbor ( in his defense) says, awwwww connie, but he likes it and he begged. little demon knows the right buttons to push on us all.
but gotta make him eat food i buy, for one it's expensive, for another, must keep his weight down so he walks and runs good.
this winter he has gained, won't have him out in the cold on wet ground, and he doesn't get enough running in house with my work hours.
he is still spoiled, not just food choices , he won't share toys, if he takes a liking to anything of mine, i lose all rights to it.
all in all, i think it's because he can't get out and run, needs to burn off steam. hurry springtime!!!!
thanks for all the advice.
might have to just live with the brattyness, after all i created it. lol.
he just had a bath, blow dry, P.T., now he has barney in his mouth, dragging him down the hall for bed. i share my bed with barney, cricket, 2 milkbone biscuits and one red ball each night. lol. that's the conditions he sets in order for me to get some sleep. lol. see, now you know who is boss!!
i just told him he only keeps me around cause i am only one working. lol
take care, hug all your fur babies for me. don't tell them all the stuff cricket gets away with, or beware! lol
hugs and doggie kisses,
connie & cricket
