“WILMA!!!! Dino ate all the food in the rockfrigerator again! This time he didn’t even leave the bones!”
“Oh Fred! Leave the poor thing alone. He only eats when he is hungry!”
“That’s the trouble, he is always hungry. No more! Today Dino is on a diet!” Fred hollered.
While Fred enjoyed his Brontosaurus Burger, Dino drooled with hunger.
That was, until Fred turned his back. Dino snatched the burger and inhaled it in one bite. Fred was furiuos.
“That’s it! Dino, from now on you eat out here.” Fred put two morsels of food in a bowl. “That’s all you get!”

This little tale of a diet gone wrong is my entry into Rochelle Wiseoff-Field’s Addicted to Purple. Be sure to check out the link for more stories.
Poor Dino, and now look at his picture… this was a fun read, thanks for the chuckle.
Dino’s on morsels that’s a sad thing.. and soon the Flintstones are out of a pet.
Willa would have fed dino the burger first. I’m thinking wrong person on the diet.
Cute story. Brings back lots of nice memories. Fred needs to look at his own waistline, I think.
Dear SNB,
Fred should take his own advice. Remembering what I do about the Flintstones, I’m sure Dino will win in the end. Cute story.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Was I the only one that thought Fred would lose his head over this tale? Good tension.
Poor Dino.
I love it!
I give it three dino-tails up!!!!!!!!

Fred could stand to lose a few pounds too. Poor Dino.
Great start. “Wilma” took us immediately to the scene of the Flintstones but at the same time one that I’m sure many of us have experienced with our pets. Poor Dino though – he really was hungry.
Ah, the pleasant burden of being a pet-owner, from a dog who shares my salted peanuts, to two cats who lap at my glass of chocolate milk??? What would we do without them? 🙂
Pets are so demanding, but Dino does look hungry!
Fred Flintstone, Paleo Nutrition Counselor! I think I need to follow his two-morsel approach to portion control😀
terrifc! Poor Dino, Fred always blamed the dog 🙂
