Toby's Tastes

Following on his earlier post, "Holistic my A-hole," Toby discloses that Newman's is nowhere. Toby is a Purina man. He ate some of the recently-purchased Newman's out of Robin's hand, but he spurned it otherwise. She decided he deserved a bit of indulgence and bought him his old fave, Purina Sensitive System Salmon. She left the 20-lb bag briefly on the sidewalk, whereupon he grabbed it in his jaws and started tugging on it. She poured a portion on top of the spurned Newman's. He ate all the Purina and left all the Newmans. Robin did like the mock-up newspaper article on the Newman's bag: "Newman's Dog Tells All."

"grabbed it in his jaws and started tugging it"--sounds like somebody has some energy!!

Yes, he did. It was really sweet to see. He is lifting more of his chest when he looks around. Today not so much: finally ate his breakfast at noon, after I put veg. stock on it.
