Update: i watched toby like a hawk as best i could during hte christmas holiday at my parents house, BUT my mom got sick so i had to be IN CHARGE of the HUGE party,........ the last couple days toby has been having diareah, then solid, then he (im sorry if this is gross) poops this clear mucousy stuff  

 ..... anyways, im thinking someone gave him something when i wasnt looking (and when toby wasnt with me, he was in his crate in a PRIVATE ROOM, so someone went OUT OF THEIR WAY to to give him a little "treat")  

 ...... i laid down teh rules pretty damn clear when everyone walked into that house, so why in the hell did they not listen????  It just makes me so upset because what they think is a "treat" actually encourages him to BEG, to get SICK, to be a general NUISANCE!!! I am trying to train him and they are RUINING ANY PROGRESS I HAVE MADE!!!!!..... i had pretty well trained not to beg for food, and now he is JUMPING IN MY LAP EVERY TIME I HAVE A PLATE!!!! 
Thank you sooooooooo much for listening to my ranting and raving, i just feel very passionatly that people should ask before giving anything to my dog, and even touching him for that matter  

  now im gunna have to RE-TRAIN him
