Not the Sharpest Tack

Tonight is a very typical evening. Stubby showed up at sundown for a snack. Sweetie a few minutes later. Sweetie is not limping as much today, and that's great! However she isn't the sharpest tack in the drawer. But look at this face:


Sweetie's tummy:

So, you say, you are disparaging Sweetie's intelligence...what gives?! Let me tell you. We have two separate feeding stations in the yard to avoid conflicts between the patrons. Everything was going swimmingly tonight, until for some reason, Sweetie took her cracker from me and walked right past her water bowl and over to Stubbys. They grunted at each, but neither pulled the trigger on an all out brawl. I coaxed Sweetie back to the door with more crackers.
