A Lifestyle

       One fresh morning, I walked out of my house to go to school.  I was in a rush and I had dropped my mid-day snack, some Nilla wafers.  I didn't bother to pick them up because Fat Boy wasn't outside.  A long school day passed, and when I got home they were still there!  Although, this time Fat Boy was outside.  He spotted the bag and struggled to open it.  I wanted to take a picture for evidence for the observation, but as I reached in my basketball bag for my phone he already opened the bag.  As soon as he opened the bag I took it away from him.  He looked at me like, "What are you doing?"  One question crossed my mind at that moment, "Why do dogs want human food rather than dog food?" So I looked it up on Google and it said, "Dogs like human food better than dog food because it tastes better and has more flavoring, but it can sometimes be bad for the dog. It all just depends on what the dog is eating." Another question ran across my mind after I found that out. The question was, "Whats the difference between human food and dog food?" The difference between dog food and human food is that, depending on the brand of dog food, it has a certain amount of vitamins and nutrients for dogs. It can have different effects on their coat of fur as well.
       Fat Boy finds food where ever he goes.  As soon as hears a wrapper of some sort, he runs to the location where the food is at.  Its like he has a radar to find food, set in his brain.  When he gets to where the food is at he does this cute little dance, where he is standing on his two hind legs.  He thinks it will get him food.
       I opened the cabinet where the popcorn is and I grabbed a bag of popcorn.  Fat Boy pranced around the corner of the couch into the kitchen.  Seriously, I'm telling you he has a radar that leads him to food.  I put the popcorn in the microwave thinking he would go away, but no he stayed there Laying on the kitchen floor the whole two minutes the popcorn was cooking.  After the popcorn was done cooking, I poured it into a bowl. The one last piece of popcorn fell out, fell onto the floor and rolled underneath the stove.  The stove isn't fully on the ground. There is exactly one inch from the ground to the bottom of the stove.  Fat boy immediately went to go get the popcorn, but he couldn't get it.  It was a bit too far under the stove for him to reach it.  He didn't care, he wanted that piece of popcorn.  He was twisting his head, reaching his tongue trying to get it but he just couldn't.  He kept on trying for approximately 5 minutes. After a while he got tired and just quit.
       Throughout this whole observation, Fat Boy hasn't changed much.  He got bigger and fluffier, but i know for sure now that he really loves food.  His name really does suit him.  Fat Boy loving food isn't just a habit to him, its a lifestyle.
