I think most of Stinky McPooperson’s crabbiness comes from his diet. He got really used to humans giving him food to be “the magical talking dog” (as the little ones call him), and a mere two meals a day is getting on his nerves.

If you would like a royal pillow like Toby’s come visit my store!
These royal pillows are made of a soft, velvety fabric with gold trim and tassels. They will add a touch of elegance to any recovery period!
Being on a strict diet at Thanksgiving is pretty rough. No turkey morslets slipped under the table, no extra helpings, no seasonal goodies involving pumpkin spice which I loathe. But I digress. But no sympathy, Tobester, you brought this on yourself. Now get better and get skinny like me. Delete last two words.
Mom yells at me to not eat so much but then I see her stuffing her face with chocolate chips. Later I’ll have to watch her draw those stupid cartoons wondering why she is so fat. Sheesh! Someone bring some sanity to this world!! – Toby
Toby…oh no…did you…did you just…did you just call your DogMom “fat?” It was nice knowing ya little fella. I’ll look online as to where to end the funeral flowers.
Don’t wait for the funeral. Send me biscuits tied in a bandana on a hobo stick so I can get out of here before she reads my post! – Toby
You can shelter at my house, just don’t ever, ever use the F word here.–Max
The “f” word in my house is “flea”. I’ll avoid that one too! – Toby
:…gets itchy just hearing the word…:
DEAR TOBY AND MISS L…
WE DO UNDERSTAND.. WE ARE RIGHT THERE WITH YOU RE BEING COUPED UP.
DIET.. YEP.. WE ARE THERE TOO.. MR J CANT EVEN HAVE A BRIEF BINGE COS HE IS DIABETIC AND THE A1C # RULE HIS LIFE.
ME NEED TO LOSE WEIGHT !
TOBY HE IS A HUMAN.. ME… WHO IS IN THE SAME BOAT AS YOU !
MISS L.. KEEP CHECKING YOUR POST NBOX !!!
HUGSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Toby desperately wants to walk, but I am making him take it easy. Again, he is not happy about this.
Ach, I feel for you and the A1C rule! I watch family members with the same struggle.
Ooh, can’t wait to see what is coming! 📦
Aw, Poor Toby! I hope he can walk and play more again soon. And I know he will EVENTUALLY get used to his new diet. And I know you will hang in there with him and help him.
Let him know, with some gentle rubs, that we understand how he feels. He is not alone in his feelings.
(((HUGS))) ❤
Carolyn…Toby called his DogMom the “f” word. Yes…”fat!” If Max did that to the AJF he would be in a nice sukiyaki dish with some tofu. I suspect Cooper is cringing. We need to mount an intervention for Toby!
But..but…but…what about “Honesty’s the best policy” and all that?! I thought I couldn’t get in trouble as long as I told the truth. – Toby (as he hides under the bed)
When digging yourself into a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging. Pro tip: stay under the bed forever.
Ha! We will join in the intervention. 😉 😀
I have noticed that since Toby doesn’t get as many treats, he is more interested in hunting critters. Maybe the mental stimulation of hunting will help him to feel better.
Sending Happy Thanksgiving hugs to you and yours!
See, I told you dogs were just like kids.
At least tuition is cheaper for pups.
Dear Toby, two meals a day is fine as long as there are plenty of “not meals” to fill up the empty spaces. Like second breakfast, third lunch, etc. 🙂
I keep offering to perform tricks and to “trade” mommy’s stuff back to her for food, but it isn’t working. She is being very stubborn, so last night I nipped at her. Now she thinks we overdid things playing with tennis balls. Geez, can’t she see I’m starving here? – Toby
Oh Toby, what will we do with you? Nipping at Mom is not a good thing! Tennis balls are my favorite thing and Mommah says I get stupid with them. I think she’s stupid, honestly!
Poor Mom, trying to keep you on you diet because it is good for you.
Finally some sympathy for me because of Toby’s diet. Thank you! 😝
