Absolutely starving at the moment???

Otto is getting three meals a day still, as he has gone ribby again (stressing whilst we were away at Christmas

) so is almost being fed twice the recommended amount. He isn't doing anymore exercise than normal, in fact given the snow he had been making do with romps around the farm, until the other day. And he isn't burning any extra energy keeping warm, as the house is toasty!

Yet he seems to be starving

He is constantly trying to break into his feed bin (something he very rarely does) and pinching anything he can get his mitts on
.
Then today when we were out for our walk in the woods, he was fixated on the bag of treats in my hand!
This is the dog that has NO interest in treats whatsoever and will spit them out in his haste to run off. Today he was belting back whenever I called him, sitting bolt upright in front of me and staring at my face. If I couldn't get the bag open quick enough he would start performing his repitoire of tricks

Very odd behaviour from Snots.... perhaps he's ill

Glad it's not just Otto. Although it's nice to have such a attentive Spangle for a change

I honestly don't think Otto has even noticed the snow, apart from it meaning he can now drink on the go, he has grabbing a mouthful of snow whilst running full pelt down to a fine art

Henry has lost another kilo

Not convinced he had a kilo to lose! He's having extra food now to try and keep him as he is, or better still get a little bit back on (never thought I'd say that).
 
Beastie is always starving

It's just a fact of life when it comes to owning a Beastie

Doesn't help she is on a diet as well. I fear she may be about to tackle me for the apple I'm eating!

Well Star is always hungry and Alfie is never hungry.. so not much has changed here.

Although - got to say I'm more hungry than usual in the cold spell!

Star also stole a HUGE lasagne from the kitchen worktop this weekend so maybe she is extra hungry!

Yes - he's holding his weight tho as I've cut his walks down until my ankle heals up. Normally after a few weeks of cold weather he looks like something out of a RSPCA ad

even when he wears his fleece!!
