Greed in His Head

.
My dog does not have a preacher in his head.

• No inner voice to educate him about the seven deadly sins, including greed.
• No one to explain the virtues of sharing his good fortune, and food, with others.
• No one to sing his praises for not taking more than he needs.

My dog does not have a mom in his head.

• No inner voice to exhalt the wisdom of vegetables, and eating slowly.
• No one to instruct him on manners.
• No one to ask him whether he is sure it's a good idea to eat what he's about to eat.

My dog does not have a boss in his head.

• No inner voice to explain the consequences of stealing food off the table.
• No one to enforce the skills of sit, come, stay, drop it.
• No one to assure him of rewards at some future time.

My dog has greed in his head, pure and simple.
