to think that my friend is being ridiculously PFP about insisting on this posh food for her little darling?

Precious First Puppy, that is...

My friend and I are both getting puppies soon, which are currently only three weeks old. She is not local, and I am liaising with the breeder/owner on her behalf.

Today, I have been given instructions to ask the lady if she will wean my friend's puppy onto a brand of food that one can only buy in the doggy equivalent of Waitrose, which is organic, omega-3 filled gluten-effing-free cordon-bleu standard canine cuisine.

I will ask, of course, but given that it will be difficult to feed the puppies separately and that the other owners are unlikely to be quite so discriminating in their choice of nourishment for their pooches, and will then have to switch their ruined little princesses onto more easily-available cheaper fare, AIBU to tell my friend she is a nitwit?

Bearing in mind that no matter how lovely, we are talking about a bloody dog- an animal which might occasionally eat its own excrement and certainly routinely rims itself for its own amusement...

Am I Being Unreasonable?

I'm the other way round with dogs these days

everyone else's are delightful but mine really get on my tits

oh I'm so jealous

I remember walking the puppy in the woods on my days off, just after I'd dropped the kids at school

one day I thought, as he gambolled ahead of me, this is my Golden Time (you know, like primary kids get on Fridays if they're Very Good)

Quite unexpectedly my first puppy melted my cold, black heart and turned me into a Nice Person (for about 5 minutes. Still quite good going, tho )

as for getting another- that's what I thought last time

and soon realised that there is a world of difference between one dog and two dogs

A puppy couldn't melt Shiney's heart with a blow torch and mig welder

oh just you wait, yogi

she'll be a gibbering soppy wreck by May half term, and cooking tictac Special Meals, "cos she's very sensitive, you know"
