Photo of Rose because Jas gets all the press.
We have changed Jasmine’s water dish from a standard dog dish to a square cooking pan. Easier for her to get into. Less likely to get tipped over.
Well, less likely to get tipped over by the dog.
Jas has taken up residence in the middle of things. That’s fine. She stays involved. We walk around her. Her water dish needs to be near here. For a year and half, this was not a problem.
The new dish style is not good at avoiding my feet.
I kick it with my foot. I catch the edge with my toe. I step directly in it. I have even stepped on the edge & flipped the fool thing over. I never did this with the other dish.
The other word-using member of the household has started calling me Bigfoot. I’m having no luck coming up with a counterargument.
I don’t have this trouble with Rose’s water dish. Since she doesn’t like to share, her dish is down the hall.

Please remind me how old Rose is?
You are so supportive of these two souls!

Jasmine born 2011. Rose born 2012. 🐕🐕
Ha!
Okay, try again: I say Ha!

Life with dogs. Never knew it could be complicated with simple things, like water dishes. You have my sympathies. MM
Making simple things complicated. I guess it’s a gift?
