Pet Kids

Even though Shelby is a dog, he feels like a pet child. I feed him, care for him and make sure he is safe and sound. Sometimes he gets under the weather and then I worry. He usually snaps out of it in a few days, but during the time he is not himself, I tend to hover over him. He has not been feeling well for a few days. Maybe the heat started things off. He does not want to eat so I am hand feeding him. I hate to do that because then he gets into the habit of special treatment. I can't ignore his not eating because then he will get weak. I will dote on him again today as any good pet mom would.
