Red and Rover by Brian Basset for February 25, 2019

Rover has turned scarfing into an art form!

Actually Red, he’s looking at that slop and saying, “I’d rather not!”

It’s a far better thing to scarf your food than to barf it.

I have always wondered what the sound of a scarf is

He can’t, he is so terribly hungry!!

My Scottie used to eat real fast then burp like a 300 lb man.

The look that Rover gave Red is exactly the look I get from my dog. It’s that Are you crazy? look.

I’m not sure my Lab would’ve even stopped for a second…

Pepper looks at a full water bowl as a challenge.

Or not!!!

At least Rover’s appetite is good!

Not that anybody cares, but no dog eats to savor their meal – they eat to stave off starvation, mostly, never knowing where their next meal is coming from. Being a “picky eater” is a ‘learned’ characteristic which the dogs so designated, have learned that garners something they crave, usually human attention (or hopefully, ‘better’ food, like that steak that “mom” and “dad” just ate).

My dogs eat like this, until I leave the room. Then within about two minutes, they’re looking for me to see where I went. They won’t start eating again until I walk back to the room where the food is.

That’s why dogs can eat anything, they don’t taste it.

I think my puggle is related to Rover.

Rover is enjoying his food too much to slow down.
