One of my nightly chores was to cut up the dog dinners.
We fed Benjamin and Jamie fresh raw meat that we got from the butcher. Every night I would cut it up into chunks, smaller for Benjamin, larger for Jamie.
I had just finished reading "Beyond Belief", the story of the Moors Murders, which was a very bloody and gruesome story.
After reading that book, I couldn't do it anymore, it made me sick. I had to trade chores with my sister.

| Big bloody meaty disgusting bone |
Jamie loved big juicy meaty bloody bones. He was only allowed to eat them outside. He slept on my bed every night, or if he got too warm, on the floor beside my bed. A few days after I read "Beyond Belief", I crawled into bed and my foot felt something slimy and cold. I got back out and turned on the light and noticed my foot was covered in blood. After I got over the shock, I threw back the covers, and shoved down at the bottom of the bed was a big, bloody slimy bone. Jamie had found the perfect hiding place. I have no idea how he smuggled that bone into the house. It was disgusting. But Jamie was really proud of himself.
