I can help myself, Girlie!

Wroo, furends! Well, we missed posting on the weekend because The Girl went to an agility trial WITHOUT ME, cheating with all those other doggies! Then, we missed posting yesterday because The Girl was "tired". I have told her what I think of those excuses!


So, today I decided to write about the yummers new ingredient that I get at dinner time:


SARDINES!!!! I wuff them, they are sooooooooo good! Girlie tells me that it is a sign of how much she loves me that she gives me a sardine evfurry night, because just the smell of them makes her gag. I don't know what she's talking about, they smell delicious to me.


The other day, she came home with a bagfull of foodables. She put most of them away, after I stuck my head into the bag to check for contraband. (I know that many of my furends have similar responsibilities; it is a doggy's job to inspect all bags coming in to the house.) But she left a couple of cans of sardines in the bag, and left the bag where I could reach it.


After time had passed, and being an enterprising doggy, I took both of the cans out of the bag and unwrapped them. Then, because I never get enough food (The Girl keeps me on a starvation diet, and then has the nerve to tell me it's because I only have three leggies... can you imagine!), I thought I would just help myself to a sardine or two. I worked at it a bit, and then I put a tooth through the bottom of the sardine can! I was most impressed with my own strength and resourcefulness. I took a break, as it is quite a lot of work to get into a can without thumbs and one of those opener-thingys.


In the meantime, The Girl discovered all the work I had been doing. She didn't even tell me how clever a dog I was or anything! The sardine cans were taken away from me, and I didn't even get to have a sardine! All that work, and Girlie just THREW THE CAN AWAY!!!! I know, furends, you are as shocked as I was. She told me that she didn't know how long the can had been "punctured", and that to be safe, she would just throw it in the garbage. The sheer wastefulness is not lost upon you, my doggy and kitty furends, I know! Never mind that I had EARNED a sardine!


Needless to say, I was very irritated at The Girl. She didn't seem to notice. Now I'm back to just a sardine at dinner time (or even just PART of a sardine, because The Girl says they are really big and "Dannan, we have to watch your weight because of your leggy", which is just insulting, and probably against the law because it is DISCRIMINATION against a DISABLED doggy). I don't know why I continue to put up with That Girl.


Another thing that keeps me wondering is the quality of pictures lately. These are he kind of pictures she's been taking:














Even if you put all the pictures together, you STILL don't have a full, proper picture of my handsome self! I seriously need to start looking for a new person to be in charge of my foodables and that silver clicky-box thingy.
