I am glad I am not the only one who hand feeds their babies. I do love spoiling them, they are just too cute not to.

It is funny that my mom would comment on my dogs being spoiled because I bought them a chihuahua a year and a half ago when my dad retired and I think they treat him better than my bother and I. This little guy had a favorite toy that he tore up and I remember my parents going to 5 different stores looking for the same toy to replace it. they even arrange their schedule around his needs.

Tobie does the same thing but only when we are out of town, even if he is with us and he has been there a 100 times before its the same thing. It takes him awhile to eat and when he does eat I have to stand next to him while he is eatting and the only way he will drink water is if I put the water into a cup so that he can drink from the cup like a person. It is cute but it gets old very fast and then when we get back home he will drink out of his water bowl and I don't have to stand by him when he eats.I just don't understand the little guy sometimes!

Joey is tiny and afraid to approach the food while Sadie is eating even though there are always two bowls out and I sit on the floor with him and sprinkle the kibble down so he will eat it in front of me. I worry because he is so small, only 3 lbs. My puppies are so spoiled that I think my kids are jealous of them!
