My friend's dog can remember every shop that gives out dog biscuits on the nearby shopping street and insists on entering each and every one of them if we walk down that street.  It seems to be hard coded.  Food is a #1 priority.  So I'm not surprised that your doggie has taken to demands at feeding times.  I don't think cats are much different.

My bird would literally swoop down on my plate if he saw something I was eating that was of interest to him.  We had to gently swat him away sometimes to keep him at bay.  I miss him though.

I've been using it every day. I was truly a fool.

He's been a bit of a bully lately.

Expects to be fed promptly at six, and will get quite vocal if he doesn't get what he wants.

The other not so nice development relates to his intelligence. He knows that shortcuts can be taken to get home. Unfortunately, that has led to him STOPPING at each possible re-route.

Lord save me from this obstinate dog.

He's still pretty dang cute though.

I've had the big idea, I'll leave the details up to you.

I see you're an architect at heart.

Just don't build the rocket pack.

Batman costume is optional.

Essentially you mount the helmet to your headboard, and just hinge it down at sleepytime.

It reminds me of one of those old fashioned hair dryers. The problem with that is that I don't like being reminded about hair.

Has anyone seen Aquaman?  Is it worth the bother?
