In the medical world, it is well known that weight gain is a common side effect of taking high doses of prednisone.   Even sources like Petco.com say "Pets who take certain medications, such as prednisone and phenobarbital, often develop voracious appetites and will plump up accordingly."  My boss man had the problem (below).  Let me tell you, voracious isn't a strong enough word.  I am hungry.  I am very hungry.  I tell the boss man "Feed Me."  I tell the boss ma'am "Feed Me More."  When this all started I was at 23.1 lbs.  We will see where I end up.  I for one, know that I am beautiful at any weight.  My doctors think too much weight is bad for my joints.  Maybe I should think about having a Slim Fast for lunch.  Mmmm, chocolaty goodness.  Better yet, maybe a Slim Jim.  Mmmm, meaty goodness.

So, I'll leave you today with this thought.  Please send food.  I'm STARVING here and my pack doesn't seem to get it.  If next time you come, you can't find Lyle, well, lets just say, I warned you.

I'll bark at you later.

Little Bit

P.S.  Stay warm today.  It is colder than a puppy's nose out there.

P.P.S  I guess I'll have to take matters into my own paws.
