...biscuits are barred!!
This is Shadow.
Shadow is not my dog; she belongs to my daughter's friend and her family. During dog walking duty, Shadow frequently finds herself sitting on my doorstep waiting (and waiting...and waiting...) for my teenage daughter to change into suitable dog walking/boy attracting clothing. It was during one of these interludes, after the usual flurry of excitement and vast amount of fussing over Shadow, that I saw fit to feed the dog a biscuit or two (or three) ...and Shadow would perform some minor trick she'd been taught...and everybody was happy!
Some weeks later, Shadow's owner remarked that Shadow seemed to be incredibly fond of me and wondered why this could be. After admitting that this was possibly largely due to the fact that I gave Shadow biscuits (of the sweet variety), I was suitably (and quite right too)! reprimanded for destroying Shadow's finely balanced diet and biscuits are now well and truly off the menu!
...and lives in perpetual hope of a custard cream and a tummy tickle!!
