Feeding Time!

“I was heading outside with my two dogs and getting ready to feed them. My daughter’s got four little ones of her own, so it’s always a busy scene when they’re all together.”

“Dude’s got some real food insecurity, so we feed him outside by himself—makes mealtime a lot less stressful for everyone. Lady comes inside, and the four little dogs get their dinner served up in the kitchen. It’s a whole operation, but at least nobody’s battling over the kibble!”

“‘Less stressful’ isn’t even the word for it. When we first got Dude, he actually tried to eat my foot! He’s determined—‘No, you’re not getting my food,’ he seems to say—and then just hugs his bowl like it’s his most prized possession.”

It’s his bowl!

“So I went inside and made tacos, and I started thinking—if I had a camera strapped to my chest, we could turn this whole operation into a TikTok video. Dog drama, taco assembly, and the chaos of dinnertime—it’s practically viral content just waiting to happen!”
