“Oh- um… Well, generally he’s not supposed to get table scraps but…” He shrugged awkwardly, “It’s very hard to say no to eyes as sad as his when he puts them to good use.” Pretzel was a spoiled ‘fluff-butt’ and there was little hope to avoid continuing to spoil him. Not with how Rhy and Llewellyn doted on the dog, especially when they were so happy to see him again after being parted for months.

Basset hounds were already described as ‘wrinkly anvils’ when full grown, so the pup was just working on that a little earlier.

“So we try to maintain his diet as best we can. His meals are prepared according to what we were told to try to make sure he gets the nutrition he needs? But snacks and scraps do happen, we just get extra walkies in.” He commented with a wry smile. It did help that Llewellyn was constantly on the go. So between the two of them, Pretzel did get a lot of exercise in.
