Sparky is getting too big for his britches.  Not in the “putting on airs” sense.  I encourage him to be a confident boss.  No, he is just getting too big.  Sparky doesn’t have any britches, but now that I’ve got a sewing machine, if I made him some britches, he mustn’t be splitting the seams.

Sparky gets Blue Buffalo dog food because he likes the wolf on the bag.  I went to the Blue Buffalo website to review the ingredients and nutritional profile.  They have alligator meat listed.  It’s not an ingredient in the flavor Sparky gets, but if I can figure out which recipe has alligator, we might switch to that.

Sparky just told me not to bother.  He isn’t nuts about eating alligator, but wouldn’t mind a pet turtle if I like reptiles so much.  Since I’m looking, he says that a switch to recipe with rabbit or raccoon would be good.
