So this morning I got up stupid early and made the dogs their breakfast, then went and did some other stuff for maybe ten minutes, then went to go let them outside. And Flossy was just sitting there in front of her full bowl. This, of course, freaked me out super-hard because our dogs do not lose their appetites.

I asked her what was wrong, and said "Good girl," and she looked at her food, and I said, "Do you want to eat?" And then she did.

And then I realized that she does sort of wait to eat until I tell her she's a good girl, and I probably didn't this morning because it was so butt early and I was groggier than usual. And I didn't know it was a rule.

She has been eating and behaving normally since then, so that's my best guess. Still. I guess you'd have to know her, but she is seriously not the type of dog to pass up a meal. It was really scary.

Our dogs are good girls. I can't forget to tell them that anymore.
