Ya know... after reading this thread I just feel really lucky about my dog, lol. This woman just brought him into my work one day, asking about his owner, and It was just love at first sight for both of us, lol. He just came over and snuggled up against me and that was that!
He's like...the weirdest dog ever, lol. So i guess that's why he's perfect for me! He's pretty lax about going out (a late sleeper, just like me

) and he does pretty well with being alone -I'd never crate him; but I think it's up to the individual dog as to whether or not they need to be crated, so I see both sides there!
Now, does anyone elses dog have weird eating patterns??? Like first off, he won't eat anything "healthy" ya know what I mean??? Like...he won't go for the good stuff, like Purina and Science Diet and whatnot, lol. Nooooo...he has to pick kibbles and bits, the lucky charms of dog food, lol. And bones? Nope! Not a chewer at all, lol. Then, he only eats...every so often. Honestly, he pretty much goes through a bowl of food...pretty much in like 2 or 3 days(it's not like...a "big bowl" either)- I was worried at first, but the Vet assured me that it wasn't a big deal, especially since he's at a healthy weight, but still!
And then...the funny part. I'll put Eli's bowl in the kitchen right??? He'll grab a few bites of food, walk out of the kitchen, through the hallway and into the living room to eat, lol. Then he'll walk right back in, get more food, and do it all over again! What is up with that?:P
