Meg Hoioos (R)

As a pet dog, I’ve always enjoyed my mealtimes. I’m not spoiled, my owner buys the basic Purina Dog Chow, but I can’t complain. Every morning and every night, I stand in the kitchen waiting for my owner to pour the food, as my mouth waters. On rare occasions, she’ll buy me special treats, but there was one day in particular when my owner came home with bags full of different kinds of dog food. My eyes widened as she put the groceries away. I contemplated trying to rip open the bag myself, but decided against it once I weighed the consequences. She had bought almost every dog food I could think of and I couldn’t wait for dinner that night.

A little while later, I anxiously see my owner open the bag of Gaines Dog Burgers. They looked delicious, I was so excited to taste them! However, to my surprise, she gets out a pan and starts to cook it. What was she thinking? Then, in shock, I watch her eat the dog burger! She made a nasty face, but I longingly watched as she ate the burger, to me, it looked tantalizing. I’d never seen a human eat dog food before, it didn’t seem right. Here, she was feeding me average food, and herself, gourmet! For the rest of the week, I saw her eat the dog food and take notes about each type. One time she even had the nerve to say that now she knew why my breath smelled bad! I may be a dog, but I am conscience of my hygiene. I figured that once she tasted my food compared to the gourmet stuff, she would realize that I am not being fed the right meals, but maybe she thought my food tasted better. I’m still being fed the original Purina Dog Chow. Some people may think my owner is crazy, but I think she was just trying something new, all for me.
