THIS SPRING, IT’S ALL ABOUT THAT BASS

FISHING -AND YOUR BASIC GEAR

BRING THE EXTRAS. This could include a life vest,cooler or,if you happen to be a smokeless tobacco user,a portable spittoon like those offered by Flasr. The Atlantabased company prides itself on creating the first-of-its-kind portable spittoon that is small enough to fit in your pocket and carry along wherever you go -whether it’s fishing on a lake or hunting in a blind. Its advanced closing mechanism ensures that it stays securely closed, eliminating the riskof spillsand leaks.

You can cut all the flowers but you cannot keep spring from coming.

Jim G., Quincy, Massachusetts

Dear Jim: It’s di cult to help overweight pets lose those extra pounds, and it’s clear that Seeker has no qualms about complaining about it!

Since you’re working from home, one way to mitigate the howling is to implement a divert-and-reward system to take his mind o his empty bowl. In essence, keep Seeker away from the kitchen and as busy as your schedule allows.

Immediately a er his breakfast, close o the kitchen. Use a baby gate or shut the door, and hide the food bowl out of sight. Take Seeker outside for a short walk to burn o extra energy and a few calories. If you’re in a high-rise apartment or another situation where going outside frequently is more di cult, opt for a ve-minute training and play session instead.

While you’re working, Seeker should be separated from the kitchen -- either in a closed-o room or with you in your o ce (but in his own corner) -- and given plenty of toys to chew on. Spend time with Seeker on each break from work. Play, work on basic obedience, or just hang out. Once you’re nished with work for the day, take Seeker out for a long walk before giving him dinner.

Stick with the diet prescribed by the vet. Be patient but consistent with Seeker to change his behavior. He can and will lose the weight, because you care about him!
