The Dog Needs A Dentist

Our mutt is in need of a doggy dentist. He's got some bad tartar build up as well as gingivitis. As a result, his gums are sensitive. He's come up with a solution to the hard dog chow problem until we take His Dogginess to the cleaners. He picks up the dry food and drops it in his water dish. He leaves it and comes back to it a while later when it is soft and mushy so it's easy to eat.

Is he overly clever or am I anthropomorphizing?

1 My cat used to do that when he was teething as a kitten. He'd knock pawfuls of food into the other side of his food/water dish and then push them around in the water before he'd eat them. He probably didn't eat his food dry for about 3 months. He still does that occasionally, but now I think it's just because he likes to play in the water (yeah, a cat that likes watersports - he's weird like that).

2 No, that's a clever one. If only my kitty with bad teeth would show some brains like that.

3 I wish the dentist work for the dog wouldn't be so freaking expensive.Between 200-300 bucks.They are SOOOO out of their freaking minds!!!! He doesn't apear to be in pain with it at all,but they told me that the nasty teeth and gingivitis can kill him in the long run???? Great...I should ask the previous owner for money to pay for it!Right....
