Dogs love to eat. Apollo is no exception. Whether it is his snacks or his daily meals - he's always ready to chow down. Growing up, we've typically been on the one-meal-a-day program. But around the time he turned 7 was when I started giving him a more regular breakfast. Nevertheless the morning feeding is only about 1/5 the amount that he typically gets for dinner.
Apollo has quickly (and I would imagine very happily) learned and accepted his morning breakfast. These days I typically see him sluggishly walking out into the living room where I've been up for some time going about my day. The routine is more or less engraved in his head as the following:
A.) Walk from bedroom to living room
A.) Walk from bedroom to living room
B.) Say "good morning" to Dad
C.) Go outside to go potty
D.) Fetch the blue toy for Dad to receive a Greenie treat
E.) Breakfast
F.) Morning nap in doggy bed under Dad's work desk
This morning I forgot his breakfast as I was distracted by work emails. Apollo kindly reminded me by standing next to his food dish and let out a whine. I quickly apologized and gave him his morning kibble so that we could both proceed with our day (work and nap).
