Better Late Than Never Right?

When Tim and Michelle dropped off Jordan they left me with an enormous bag of dog food and a canvas bag containing the following items: two bowls, a leash, a collar, and two cans of science diet light. I was informed the two cans of wet dog food were for the pups as treats on Christmas morning. How adorable is that? 

So, the morning of December 25th came and went yet Jacques and Jordan only received their normal portions of dry dog food. Neither of them even bothered to remind me; they are such well-mannered pups right? I remembered my blunder long after I'd already fed the dogs their evening meal. I, therefore, pretended as if Christmas was on December 26th.

As instructed, I mixed Jordan's can of soft food with a reduced portion of hard food. But instead of doing the same for Jacques, I simply dumped the contents of the can into his bowl. 

Since Jacques had never received wet food he was uncertain, initially, how to eat it. As you can see from the picture below, my cats took it upon themselves to "assist" in teaching him. And, as if Jacques was truly a kid with his toy on Christmas morning, he finally hauled off with the entire log of wet food in his mouth.

I wish the picture was not so fuzzy. But you get the idea. 

To understand how shocked I was by Jacques's move you'd have to know Jacques. He is the most submissive pup in the world --- not only to other dogs and humans, but also to my cats. He'll sit patiently by while they help themselves to his dog food before approaching the bowl. I suppose he decided to draw the line somewhere. Evidently that line was wet food.
