I told my dog I'm going to lay off sharing my food with her, because I think eating too much of whatever crap I was eating was starting to affect her health; I noticed her licking the air, which is a sign of nausea. She now believes I don't love her anymore and howls mournfully whenever I am eating. 🤦‍♂️

My one dog has been sick for a few days, so she's on a special diet which happens to include novelties like boiled chicken or fish. My other dog looks at me like I've betrayed her every time I feed the sick dog a bunch of chicken or fish with rice and she gets kibble with just a bit of chicken or fish on it.

Lol our dogs are in a similar situation. One dog had a tooth pulled and gets to eat wet food, and the other dog inhales her food and then looks at us like "wtf is this".

Well, why don’t you love her any more?

Black eyes. Like a doll's eyes.

I can relate to this. I put my cat on a diet and now he wakes me up extra early every morning because he's hungry.

Andrew, I'm just saying.....

Time to give that dog a full bowl

[-] andrew@lemmy.stuart.fun 5 points 5 months ago

I did give her like 1/3 of a scoop as consolation shortly after this, which should still fit her diet and get rid of the guilt trip (for now).

They're wasting away! How dare you.

They’re clearly masters of the puppy-eyes!
