Hello Mr. Henry,

I must tell you that my parents are military strict when it comes to me. Most especially my diet. I get about a cup of Eukanuba Lamb and Rice in the morning then two cups of the same boring thing in the evening. I get treats here and there, but that's about it. Absolutely no human food! Although I can get my momma to bend to my will and she will hand me bits of human food here and there. The best so far has been anything with B-B-Q sauce, arrroooooo! They even told me that when I get fixed (what's that??? I say nothing's broken) that my metaloborism or other will slow down and that I will tend to gain more weight. *shrug* I can always use the cute factor with the momma and she will eventuallyl give in.

About my training, I am fooling them into giving me treats when all it takes are just a few mediocre tricks *yawn* So typical of humans. They are pretty persistent when it comes to me sitting and staying when the front door is open. That's when they use hotdogs, yum!

It's been nice talking to you, Sir...Gotta go. I've got a treat to hide and I know exactly the spot to dig.

Take care and sniff ya later!

Hi Toby

Well are you learning to sit and stay when the door is open? I'm trying to learn that as well because my mom and dad are very worried that I might run out as well. I'm pretty fearless when it comes to cars, so they have good reason to worry about me. I'm slowly learning to obey my daddy, but it's hard because I'm not always hungry for treats as a reward. I don't know... sometimes I would just rather sniff the ground than have a treat. Maybe I have OCD or something. If I may ask, I'm curious about how much you're eating. Not to get too personal, but beagle to beagle, my mommy and daddy are totally new to this dog-owning business, and they're kind of stupid. They're feeding me two cups of Iams a day, but sometimes, I gotta tell ya, I could eat the whole bag, and then other times, I just can't be bothered to eat at all! I don't want to be a chubby beagle, so I need to figure out how to tell them how much I need to eat. So how much are you eating to keep your figure trim? Anyway, my daddy needs to take me to work with him now, so I better go find the leash. Have a good day!

Mr. Henry
