rootofnewt | On canine diets.

babyrapture is becoming quite erudite as he approaches the end of his fourth year. Today, he informed me that

jericho_the_dog is scary because he has very large sharp teeth. I explained that dogs have teeth because wild dogs often ate a lot of meat. I explained that Jericho isn't wild, so he doesn't need to tear into meat very often, but that he still has sharp teeth because his ancestors did.

babyrapture looked concerned. I told him he wasn't made out of meat, so not to worry. I insisted that Jericho doesn't eat children and that we can see his teeth simply because he smiles all the time. Well,

babyrapture is quite sure Jericho *does* eat children. And he claimed that he was so hot, Jericho might want to eat him.

With that, he took off down toward the supermarket and I had to scramble to catch up to him before the Pepsi truck driver bundled him up into a soda machine.
