Powderpuff Purchases

Yesterday afternoon we were busy holding down the bed (this is our weekday job), when we heard Min open our drawer. OUR drawer that contains our harnesses, our collars, and our leashes.  That's right, all the accessories that mean an outing, woo hoo!

After a quick car trip (Jack:  Do Not Like), we arrived at Petbarn, which is one of our favourite places. It's a store that allows us dogs to go in and assist our humans with pet purchases. If your human has ever come home with a ball when you're really more of a tug toy fan, or a neon collar when you're in a punk prince phase, then you'll understand why this is important.

We politely sniffed the store dogs, then got down to serious business:  charming our fellow shoppers and store assistants. Once we felt sure that our adoreableness was still in full force despite the stupid face cut Min had given us, we continued our promenade towards the treats section. Sadly, we found ourselves in the grooming section, where we suspect something was purchased by the human. She always seems to purchase something from that aisle. It's never anything we like, but we'll tell you all about that when we start doing product reviews.

As a bribe for tolerating the grooming section, we visited treats next. Yummy. We got to sample dried calamari, but weren't very fond of it. Maybe if Min was eating it we'd have been interested. We're pretty chuffed though, because she bought a whopping big bag of our top treat, Roolami.

Then Min said that winter is coming, so we'd better look at some snugly beds. Silly human, we have a queen size bed. She tricked us over summer by having mats for us in front of the air-conditioner, which was cooler than being stuck with the overheated humans in the big bed. AS IF we're going to sleep off the big bed during winter! Away from the human heaters! Silly! She did buy us a bed each though. Probably just to keep us warm while we watch TV.

Once we got home, we realised that we were pretty hungry. And then Steve came home, which means not long until dinner time!

Usually our dinner is a homemade mix of ground bone and mince, vegetables or whatever the humans are having, a meaty bone, or a bit of Nutro Natural Choices Chicken, Rice and Oatmeal if the humans have failed on the butcher-going front. But because Min has been sick, she thought she'd try a pre-made RAW BARF meal.

Ella:  I scoffed it. I was starving! It's hard work pandering to the fans AND supervising Min's purchases.
Jack:  ..... Are you trying to poison me? Bring my bowl back when it has MY food in it.

We will see if we can get some internet time after brekkie to review some of these purchases.

Jack:  Only if I'm not too weak from hunger.
Ella:  Oh, brother.
