102. KISS!
Do you have a dog that gulps his food at a frightening pace? Well, Archie did...
Is that a problem? PetSafe (after a plea to Dr Google) says, "Yes!".
Mary and I tried retraining: me holding Magic and quietly but forcefully commanding, "Stay!" while Mary placed his bowl on the floor. Archie just grew increasingly frantic. MANIC, in fact!
After a couple of days we gave up. Google then suggested a simple home remedy.
We tried it this morning ~ sprinkling his food across all depressions on a 'cup-cake' tray.
Wow! It worked.
It was a few minutes before Archie had finished his breakfast. I wouldn't say he was contented or happy. But, Mary and I were certainly 'happy-chappies". We'll see how we all go with tea tonight...
Hey! We are coming up to a week this afternoon.
Dr Mark just laughed uncontrollable when Mary and insisted that we had a savant dog.
