Humor: What do you call an argument about the best dry dog food?

My parents used to pour their leftover coffee in our Cocker Spaniel's dog dish, and when I was three years old, I used to get on my hands and knees and drink the coffee out of the dog's bowl. To discourage me from doing this, my parents started giving my own coffee, with milk and sugar, in a tippy cup.

Ahhhhh, memories .

I don't specifically recall them, might have been the ones the bank and postman fed dogs back then..????

I still drink my coffee the same way, with milk and sugar, but now I use espresso coffee, which is much stronger.

BTW, my parents were WRONG to give poor Inky (the Cocker Spaniel) coffee, since it is on the list of foods that are toxic to dogs. Inky did go on to live a long life and she was fairly old when my father backed the car over her in the driveway .

Little did your sibs know that you were WAY ahead of the game by drinking a bit of coffee bc nowadays, they recommend a reasonable amount of coffee/caffeine for all sorts of reason, including it being brain-protective.

Awww, so sorry to hear about poor Inky, how tragic. I'm glad she lived a long life though.
