And cheaper.

My discovery came about as I tried to find ways of slowing down the dog eating in order to stop her getting at the cat’s food as soon as she finished hers.

You weren't the first actually. Slow feeder bowls work like that. I used them for one of my cats who ate voraciously - and then vomited everything.

An idiot corrupt Prime Minister of Britain doggist Boris Johnson:
"Chancellor Jeremy Hunt says he tackled a flea problem in Downing Street that Liz Truss had complained about in her new book.
The former prime minister revealed she "spent several weeks itching" when she moved into the number 11 flat in 2022.
She blamed her predecessor Boris Johnson's dog, Dilyn, for causing the infestation."

My dog doesn't like men in helmets, cyclists and motorcyclists. But she only barks at them. My main criticism of dogs would be that they seem to come without a volume control.

Men from certain cultures really seem terrified of dogs. But it's only ever the men, the women are fine.

My first best friend was a dog, but I don’t trust dogs in general - or actually their owners. When I read that a dog mauled or killed a toddler or attacked people at a party, I only blame the idiots who didn’t predict the obvious can happen. I think every animal career should read some literature on their pet’s physiology, psychology, communication and natural behaviour and ethology in general. Lots of accessible resources.

The words "only" "my dog does not bite" are no excuses.
By owning a dog you are entering an army of violators of other's people rights.
Most real grown men (elspecially with family and/or kids) consider others people dog as AN ENEMY to his family, to his kids, regardless of it's size. This is normal for a man as a defender. This is a rule.
The exclusion of this rule was V. Putin - during ealry days of his service at KGB - he was delayed in carreer "due to lack of feel of an enemy". As I understand after many years in KGB he obtained an EXTRA volume of this "feature".
And in modern times, with all this madness, owning a dog is a sin.
And during the punishment of Sodom and Homorra, God destroyed several "righteous" people, because it is very simple: if you are "righteous" what are you doing in a city of sodomites?

Dog is NOT a friend, it is a dog.
Legally a dog is a property, a THING, like a pencil or a pen.
The friend is a friend.
Thousands of dog owners make an euthanasia of their healthy "friends" each year.
How many times you have made of euthanasia of any of your friends?
Calling a dog a "friend" or "member of the family" is another idiocy of modern times, because it is a hypocrisy.

I think I've asked this before, but what exactly did they do in Gomorrah that caused such a kerfuffle? I understand about sodomy (don't knock it until you've tried it), but the bible is very coy about Gomorrahy.

Of course, I even thought about sending you a postcard from my recent trip to Karlstad! Gosh, food in Sweden is so much better! The cakes were divine!
Anyway, interesting word for a dog. Similar to German and possibly common root with onomatopoeias for dog sounds in many languages. I’m a word junkie - amateurish etymology unchained: comparing words between languages, their roots, patterns, connections… makes me high! Do you have it too?
