Pancakes, For The Dog, The Husband, And Last of all - Me

Yesterday I had a craving for pancakes.
So, I made some pancakes.

And finally, after the dog ate his pancake, and the husband ate his pancake, I ate my pancakes, plural, two for me. ✌🍴😋 #pancake #lemon #honey #food #breakfast

Mmm, pancakes with honey and lemon juice. Delicious!

I don't think pancakes are just for 'Pancake Day' I could happily eat them every day. Pancakes are very versatile; I like them hot, cold, sweet, and savoury. Perfect!

And then, after the beach, and the Co-Op I made pancakes for us all. The dog and first - of course. 😜🐶😋 #pancake #dogfood

Plain pancake for Barley, our Lurcher

Although I usually prefer savoury pancakes, yesterday I fancied something sweet, so I ate mine with honey and fresh lemon juice.
Mr.R also had honey and lemon on his pancake.

The dog said he liked the pancake, but it wasn't quite as tasty as the fish he ate on the beach. 🐟🐶😁 #Lurcher #sighthound #rescuedog #dog #pancake #dogfood

It was a nice warm day; Barley dining alfresco - he's got us well trained

Barley, our lovely Lurcher, ate his pancake plain, fresh from the pan.
How do you like your pancakes?
Do you only eat pancakes on 'Pancake Day'?
Do you like sweet or savoury pancakes?

Barley the Lurcher Loves to Eat

Barley, our lovely Lurcher has several favourite things in life.
Eating.
Playing.
Sleeping.
Not necessarily in that order.

Barley would happily spend all day, and night, in bed sleeping.

He would also happily spend hours playing, with his toys, and with me and Mr.R.
By playing with us I mean nibbling, he likes to nibble - especially me.
I guess I must taste good.

Mmm, thank you! Treat time! #blog #blogger #blogging ©http://laurasdiatribe.blogspot.co.uk #Lurcher #dog #sighthound #rescuedog #food #beefknuckle #dogbone

Barley is always obedient when there's food on offer, he instantly sits.

And that nicely leads me on to eating.
Like a lot of dogs, Barley loves to eat. He will eat anything, literally - it doesn't even have to be food.

We feed him a healthy balanced diet of two home-cooked meals a day. He also has the occasional treat.
This huge bone was a freebie from a local butcher. We'd popped in to buy some ox hearts for Barley, and lamb chops for our lunch, and the butcher asked if we'd like some beef knuckles for Barley.
Barley barked a loud, Yes!
He didn't really, but I like the thought of it.

I was standing outside the butcher shop with Barley, while Mr.R was inside making the purchases.
As soon as we got home Barley got to enjoy gnawing on one of the beef knuckles.
He was a very happy chappy indeed.
Do you give your dog raw bones?
