Kramer is Ageing

Well, aren't we all. But more and more Kramer is sleeping for long periods and doing very little office.

But he still can be naughty. He loves to look in the kitchen tidy and see if there is any food for him. We do usually remember, if we are leaving him unattended in the house we put the kitchen tidy up on the bench.

This week though, he had a good feed. The bone, still with meat on it, from the lamb roast some days before was in the bin and proved too much of a temptation. When MM returned to the kitchen after going downstairs to do something, found Kramer midst a pile of debris from the kitchen tidy, chewing on the bone. When he was "sprung" and ran without the bone with his tail between his legs to the front door. As if he could get out there!

There's still life in the old dog.

The Bone

Kramer, just like any dog, loves a bone. He regularly gets chicken wings which he generally chomps into quickly and completely demolishes it. Good for his teeth. We also give him other bones, and one of his favourite is a knuckle.

Generally we leave him in his pen to eat the bone - but sometimes he does a runner and hides it in the garden. Then sometimes days later he finds it again, and drags the revolting dirty bone around. He tried to get it into my office one day, and I sent him packing and on another occasion he tried to get it upstairs into the house. He failed miserable, as he finds it difficult to carry the bone and climb the stairs at the same time.

So I found thebone on the steps. And put it in the bin.
