"This is Not a Buffet!"

Every now and then when I open the run for a dog to go outside, the dog makes a bit of a detour. He may decide to run into another dog's run and sample any uneaten food. Or, he may stick his head in a bag of food that does not belong to said dog.

I give them a lecture on this not being okay.

They don't seem to care.

Sure, it's good to be curious, to try new things. However, sometimes, "things" are just not our business, and we need to focus on the task at hand, which does not involve what goes on in someone else's backyard.

While we must be concerned and caring about our friends and neighbors, being overly involved in their details is not our business. "It is not a buffet."
