We\u2019ve been caught red pawed. If I\u2019m being strictly accurate, it was Ari who let the side down. That dog is hopeless at hiding things when he\u2019s guilty. Oh, so making himself sick and then starting to eat it again was a bit of a clue, but he almost got away with that. He and I had managed to break into a bag of my dog food. It\u2019s amazing what you can manage if you let a claw grow a little bit longer. I\u2019d run it down the front of the bag and was pleasantly surprised to find I\u2019d broken through to the food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My food is a different shape to Ari\u2019s so when Mum found him eating sick on the grass she presumed I\u2019d been sick and he was eating it. Honestly, does she really think I\u2019d let him get away with that? I have some dignity. I didn\u2019t want to give the game away so I just said nothing and hoped it would blow over. It would have done if Ari had swallowed what he\u2019d taken out of the bag later rather than dropping it at Mum\u2019s feet. Being guilty is one thing, admitting to it is never part of my plan. Ari is just a bit too honest when faced with an enquiry from Mum. She is pretty good at making enquiries so I can see why he caves sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The bag is now taped up with heavy duty tape and I\u2019ve been given a stern lecture about the harm it could do Aristotle to eat the wrong food. How fair is that? Mum should be lecturing Aristotle for his stupidity rather than holding me responsible. He\u2019s old enough to make his own decisions and shouldn\u2019t be so easy to lead astray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You will be pleased to hear that Shadow had the good sense to stay out of it all and so didn\u2019t eat food that would make her ill. She was also a lot brighter yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
