Eating off the floor

I dont know about you but I dont like to eat off the floor. Humans dont understand this. They think that all dogs are pigs. We are not even related!!!

Now, I am a Boxer right? I have jowls...big, honkin huge jowls. When I eat...out of a bowl like any civilized animal, my jowls get loaded with food. Occasionally I like to look up and check out my surroundings as I grab a mouthful. Ok, so some food gets caught in my jowls, my big, honkin huge jowls, and when I look up, it has a tendency to fall out onto the ground. After a while, there is quite a bit of food on the ground around my bowl and my humans think I should eat it. Yeah right!!

One day, Head Master decided that he was not going to put any fresh food into my bowl until I ate up all the food on the floor. Yeah right!! He told me that I had to eat it off the floor and I told him, "Ru ron't reat roff ra froor." ( he actually understood me right that time because he told the whole family about it but he still insisted I eat it anyway. I held my ground. By the end of the day, he had picked up each and every piece of food off the floor and put it into my bowl for me. I think that was a good compromise. I am not a pig but I don't mind an occasional morsel of food that was on the floor but is now in my bowl.
