I trust he never intends or wants to harm me. I trust he is human and might err sometimes. I trust he will work us through it when he does. As for dog bowls and eating from them, and waiting on the floor at his feet while he eats (the best part is when he pats my head and hands me a bite of food as a treat), and opening my mouth to whatever he wants to put in it...yes, that has happened with some regularity. He once told me he'd be feeding me dog food and I asked if he would consider vegitarian dog food, to which he howled with laughter. When he returned from errands later that day, I offered him a pack of rawhide bones to feed me if he wished, to show I would do so and wasn't just grumbling. He smiled, said I was a good girl, and said he had no intention of feeding that crap to me. He doesn't promise no harm. We take risks in our dynamic which could possibly cause harm. Hell, sky diving could cause harm, right? Driving a car could cause harm. He does say he wants me to be happy and healthy, and I know he takes great care with the risks he presents. I also know I am obligated to say when I am distressed or think I'm in danger. With that combination, all is well.
