Sick pup

I own a very smart dog. The most difficult part about being so far away from home is being away from my adorable genius dog. This month, to distract me from the relentless job search and Shamrock-less life, I’ve been house sitting and dog sitting. The dog is cute, I’ll give him that. He’s cuddly enough and has long hair like my border collie. But he’s not very smart. He’s a notorious not very smart breed: cocker spaniel. But worse than his inability to understand basic commands, he has the dog version of Prader-Willi syndrome. Have you ever heard of that? Its this sad thing were, essentially, the victim has no ability to know when they are satiated. They’re always hungry. Every time I make eye contact with this dog, he runs to his food bowl and looks at me with giant stupid dog eyes and whines. Even if five seconds earlier I fed him his dinner and he ate it all. Every time I stand up to do anything, this dog runs to the kitchen and sits in front of the cabinet where his food is and whines... Its frustrating. Now I don’t want to downplay the horribleness of this syndrome... but seriously. This dog has no self awareness. He’s driving me crazy. Its just another reminder of how amazing my dog is
