ONE SPOILED DOG!

Each morning when Scott gets up and has his breakfast there is a ritual that goes on in the kitchen.

Griffin who sleeps under the covers with us hears the tinkle of the cereal being poured into the bowl and he immediately jumps out of the bed and heads for the kitchen.

He then sits at Scott's feet patiently waiting for the milk to be poured and the toast to be put into the toaster. Scott will eat a few bites and then the begging begins.


Griffin will raise one paw off the floor and look at Scott with this pitiful look. Scott will then find a small piece of his cereal and give it to him. Then Griffin will beg again and he will get another morsel of cereal.


We have told Scott that he has ruined this dog because now every time we eat he thinks he should get a taste of what we are eating! I have always tried to not give our dogs food from the table because it is not good for them, but Scott claims that this little bit won't hurt him. Scott actually looks forward to this morning ritual with Griffin. He babies this dog more than I do! It's so pitiful!

Griffin-glad you are eating well my friend!
Jill, I hope it doesn't bother you that I bark back at him when we come to visit.
Remember our fam. pics at Thanksgiving Point when the photographer started barking to get us to laugh, and Scott said, looks like someone forgot to take their medication today, and then we all laughed, and she thought it was her clever barking. FUNNY!
