Tidbit Tuesday

~ Tails Around the Ranch

Eat & starve

Do you ever get “the” look? You know…the one when you’ve just sat down to eat dinner…and you realize the dog bowl is empty.

Live, love, bark! <3

  1. Sand Spring Chesapeakes – Cambria, WI – My husband and I have six "furry" children Gambler, Glory, Guilty, Slammer, Gertie and one cat Bones and two furangel's Norman and Nellie. We breed Chesapeake Bay Retrievers. We are both avid hunters. We also enjoy competing with our dogs in hunt tests and field trials. That is where you can find us during the trial months which are April-September. When were not at a trial we are busy training our dogs. We go snow goose hunting in Canada each year and do all the hunting that Wisconsin offers.

    I only get “The Look”when I forget to top up the Good-o Bowl. It’s an Australian style chewy biscuit that Benji and the WaWa really like. As well as The Look, Benji will push the metal bowl across a tiled floor – noisy!!

    2. colinandray – S. Ontario, Canada – My profile photo is of Ray. Despite the fact that I had never had a dog in my life before him, and despite the fact that he carried more emotional baggage than I could ever imagine, he carved for himself a huge niche in my heart.

      Ray just walks up to us and gives his best Rotti stare. Rotti eyes can be very piercing!

            With dogs, it’s mostly “impawsible” to litigate meal time. 😉

    Piggy squeals – YES!! There is a standing rule here at the Hotel Thompson that if you eat in front of the pig (me not daddy-snorts) then you have to share with the pig. Guests don’t believe it until mom tells them for sure with a serious look. I’m really good at giving ‘the look’. XOXO – Bacon

    The teenager “What?” look is pretty impressive, but the gold medal will always go to the canine “Haven’t you forgotten something?” look!

      Normally Sam doesn’t beg, that’s a rule around the Ranch…but sadly staring seems to be a fine line skirting that rule. 😉

      1. I guess I shouldn’t say beg..They never whine or whimper..But they sit very close maybe a couple paw lengths away and just stare…..Sometimes drool peaks out of Hayley’s mouth if it’s something really tasty.

  10. OW! I feel the look from here! Poor Sam… starving…
    Yep, I know the look. Followed by a head on the knee, or licking of an ankle. “It’s all I have left, spit, no energy or drive to beg”

      LOL…yup…this is the look before head across the lap with sad, starving eyes effectively looking up. Definitely an Oscar-worthy performance. ღ
