Dogs are of course also far more forgiving and non-judgemental.......

Well, you're half right. When we owned The Baron, our 232 pound Great Dane, he demanded to be fed at his usual times, thrice daily. If that bowl (extra large) was not presented on time, he was VERY judgmental!! The look on that giant pup's face was that of, "No food? Ok, I'll just eat YOU!" But he was forgiving - after he finished eating!

Well now.......being given such a prestigious title at birth would make the hound feel quite entitled, would it not?

True, True. We had just returned from a Baltic Sea trip and were impressed with the Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen, Denmark when we bought the largest male Great Dane puppy of the litter of 10. We officially named him, on his pedigree - Baron Von Tivoli.

I ate salads. On the other hand, The Baron dined high on the hog! Formal Smile

No, there wasn't much left of the grocery budget. We had his food bussed in. It involved caterers, waiters and cat-clean-up-crews!! Scared
