Bruce MacDonald<p>I just received word from his havers that Pepper, the kelpie we borrow from friends, is facing a 25% reduction in his dog food ration. He's on a diet. Poor Pepper!</p><p>He evidently gets more calories from food the toddler flings down from the high chair.</p><p>I figure that, because he can still count to four, we'll have to reduce the size of the measuring cup we use to measure out his dry food. He's probably smart enough to discern that, as well.</p><p>Treats are said to be OK though.</p><p>A lean and hungry look.
