Aprill always enjoys her breakfast

We’ve just returned from an overnight stay in Bunbury, Western Australia. We visited Vince’s brother and his wife and, of course, we mustn’t forget to mention the cocker spaniel, Aprill. (The double ‘l’ is deliberate.)
Aprill is probably a bit spoilt but she brings a lot of pleasure to her people. Here she is eating toast with jam. She had already had her bacon and eggs. But she did eat her vegies at dinner-time and is particularly fond of pumpkin and sweet potato.
She is almost as broad as she is high but no way would I make disparaging comments about her weight. She is so human-like she would probably understand every word if I said something derogatory.
The photo was taken by me of my sister-in-law and Aprill.

Yeah she really looks cute and probably deserves being spoilt !!
Somehow I also feel like having Bread and Jam, although for that I would have to buy Jam again as the last bottle is finished.
I think with time, many pets start understanding the tone and the emotions of their owners and others who meet and interact with them frequently.
Have a nice day.
How cold is it in your place?

We had a dip of around 1 or 2 C.
Not much but just a slight respite.
The rains however look far enough !

We don't often have jam because of Vince's diabetes so we don't have any at the moment. I like jam and cream on bread. When we lived on the farm, we had as much cream to eat as we wanted. We always had a couple of 'house cows' that we milked once or twice a day.
Our minimum temperatures are now ranging between about 9 and 14 C. Maximums about 20 to 27 C so it's a lot cooler than a month ago.

Danie is spoilt too. And we never treated her like she's a dog except for her food which I'm very strict about. No human food for Danie. I've always believed they're unhealthy. She is given the best quality dog food we could find. We love Danie to bits and she is like my real human daughter.

@JudyEv Sure. But I breed my dog and when I see my friends feeding human food, I always say something and they listen coz they know I know how much I love dogs and they know I know more than them.

They love Aprill as a family member, that's precious!

@JudyEv I had a Boston Bull-mixed breed, years back. I'd say "Teddy, want a panny-cake?" He'd go into flips, spins and get all excited, he loved whenever we had pancakes! I'd share the last one with him:) Ted lived to be fourteen years old, not too bad for an old bull dog!

@kobesbuddy Aww, that's pretty cute. Fourteen is a good age for such a dog. We don't see a lot of Boston Bulldogs here but they are very lovely.

She is really cute. That she takes veggies too is surprising. As the dogs that we kept didn't eat vegetables.

@aninditasen It would be a very different environment there. Do you miss Kuttu? I'm sure you do.

@JudyEv Yes, I and my younger son give our dog Kuttu rice boiled with chicken or mutton. He is in Copenhagen now with my younger son.

That's funny that you mentioned breakfast for Aprill. Anytime I cook breakfast I always make a small plate of food for our dog. He eats just about everything we eat it seems. Well, except for foods like chocolate which are bad for him.
