Willow's sulking AGAIN because I have a job

I work full time from home and Willow has taken to shoving herself pitifully into the corner of my office nearest my chair when I won't stop working so we can snuggle on the sofa.

Ma'am. You are expensive. I need to work to keep you supplied with treats.

That said, I AM ordering a rug for my office so she can be more comfy while hanging out in here. 😀 Maybe that'll cut down on the pouting a bit.

We’re on our way home after a day trip to salt Spring Island, hot but we managed. We had a great lunch at the Tree House Cafe, I had prawns in lemon sauce. Loved it! Louie had some of Laura’s chicken.

20 minute wait for the boat. Louie has to sit on my lap, if we aren’t moving he starts to whine.

Anyone else struggle with getting their elderly pap to gain / maintain weight?

This is Kernel! He’s 16. He’s my old boy and my soul dog. He’s had full bloodwork and an ultrasound on his belly. He’s in good health but he’s soooooo skinny. He used to sit around 12-13 lbs. in the past few years he has shot down to just under 7 lbs. As far as the vet can tell, there’s no medical reason for the weight loss. He loves food and eats whatever I put in front of him. I’ve found wet food that doesn’t upset his tummy and feed him as much as he will let me!

Is this just him being an old man? The vet seems to think that with his age, it’s not worth further testing and that we should just treat him to good food and keep him happy. Just wondering if anyone has any tips? Or has experienced this before?

His look of bewilderment was quite comical. I go home for my lunch break and occasionally they don't see me pull in the driveway. Lol finally decided to record. The brak was Rodger, he sticks his nose next to Buddy on the left.
