Being weary of stale food your dog makes bold to tug at your feet; Kanhoba understands that sign and gives him some warm food. We should eat whatever is set on our own dish, and by our devotion preserve our Master’s love for us. Tuka says, I am an old dog; the illusion of the world has departed from me.
