Our one dog, Tjorro, is often called Mikey after the 70's commercial for cereal where an older brother to Mikey Says "Give it to Mikey, he'll eat anything." The other one - Racko - is the pickiest eater this side of Heaven. If it isn't pure meat in the bowl he'll look at it and go lie down.
I know dogs don't starve themselves to death, but I do a fair amount of fawning and fussing for this darned dog - because I want him to eat!
You have such a way of picking comics that are funny and then....yeah...that IS the way it is!! I got 2 bottomless pits now and I'm thinking it's only going to get worse!! I may need another job just to pay for milk!!

My dog is so picky, this could totally be him - after he's eaten an entire bag of "greenies."

It's definitely a Bassett Hound thing, at least. I miss ours but she was like a goat, always eating *something.*
But if my kids have the vocab chops of this dog, I'll feed 'em extra...

This is so my CHILDREN. We often say to one another "don't make eye contact" because if you do, they ask for food.
