[quote=Anonymous]I am pet sitting by myself for a coworker of DH's. They left for a work conference early today. I volunteered for this. We don't have dogs, but I had a shih tzu growing up and I miss having a dog. When DH told me about the conference and that one of his coworkers needed a dog sitter, I volunteered.

His coworker brought the dog over this morning. It's adorable - it's a 2 year old lab. But the problem is this dog is constantly hungry. He was fed before he was dropped off and his owner said that he eats a cup of food, 2x day, and his last meal is usually in the late afternoon. I took the dog for a long walk this morning before it got too hot.  Around noon this dog was getting restless and was staring at his container of food and drooling. So i gave him his food, probably way too early but he was hungry, so I thought I'd be nice and give it early. I made myself a sandwich and I accidentally dropped a piece of bread on the floor and the dog ate it. Oops. I just made dinner and the dog sat on his dog bed staring at me and drooling so I walked over and gave him a little piece of chicken. And he just wants more. At this point he had his dog food, a piece of bread and a little strip of chicken. Why does this dog want so much food?

Now it's getting near 6pm and he's back staring at his dog food container and drooling everywhere.

I think I got him off his routine now. Do I feed him again? Why is this dog so hungry?[/quote]
