DocsDoctor Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 It's Tiger's first birthday celebration here, and despite the restrictions of lockdown we've managed to celebrate a bit. Two walks in lovely sunshine (yes since last Wednesday we're allowed to take more than one a day again, hurrah!), a pig toy to play with, and most popular of all, a first goat's foot: Even with this small photo you can probably see that it's more like half a goat's leg, with the foot still attached. I get them very inexpensively from my local halal butcher - traditionally they are used to add body to a stew, I think. Ken used to love them and I was pretty sure Tiger would as well. It should help get any remaining plaque off his teeth, too - they were very brown when he arrived and although he's good about letting me clean them, and Plaque Off (a seaweed-based UK remedy) has definitely helped, the back ones are still a bit grotty. I've also ordered him a new martingale (dark blue denim) and house collar (in a suitably bold red, blue and black design) but somehow I doubt those will create nearly as much excitement when they eventually arrive! Quote Clare with Tiger (Snapper Gar, b. 18/05/2015), and remembering Ken (Boomtown Ken, 01/05/2011-21/02/2020) and Doc (Barefoot Doctor, 20/08/2001-15/04/2015)."It is also to be noted of every species, that the handsomest of each move best ... and beasts of the most elegant form, always excel in speed; of this, the horse and greyhound are beautiful examples."----Wiliam Hogarth, The Analysis of Beauty, 1753.
