#GoodBoyHeath

[peteyfoozer]

The Heathen has been bored, as I haven't been very active today. But he's not one to remain idle. As I rested, unbidden, he brought me a kleenex, a paper plate, a pillow, a shoe and out of consideration, so as not to put me to any trouble, he brought me his tub of snackies so I could pay him for his efforts. He used to just bring me my meds, over and over, but after explaining to him the risk of overdose, he ceased to use that tactic.

What a brilliant dog. How does your heart not burst, trying to hold all the love you have for this wonderful dog?

He surely is my BFF. He’s at my side 24/7 of his own volition. The only time we’ve been separated was during surgery, but he was waiting in my hospital room for me

Got to love a dog that smiles

Might I recommend a puzzle toy to keep him busy for days like these? ;-) When my dog is driving me nuts, I stuff a kong or get one of the other puzzles, and stuff it in his face. It's a bit like giving a binky to a baby.

What a good dog! Very pretty, too.

He looks like he is intelligent, and a handsome boy also.

What a good boy he is, and so in tune with you.
And as well as being so helpful, he can also make you laugh. That's what the kleenex was for, to wipe those laugh tears with.

I've always been told to avoid raw hides due to blockages. In this study for example: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4473148/ rawhides were all over the map with some being digested as little as 14%, and others 50%-70%
