Some loves are learned slowly

When Wookie first came to live with us, I wanted to find him treats he would enjoy, but that would also be healthy for him. There are a lot of things I refuse to buy or feed him. Bones were something I figured every dog liked, so I bought some Dentley’s Mini Knotted Bones for him. He had absolutely no interest in them, I mean none! Since I had a bag of them, I realized I needed to figure out some way to get him to be interested in them.

So I took a little melted bacon grease and painted the outside of one of them, to see if that worked. It did, but it was slow, it’s taken about 7 weeks for him to demolish the bone. Once he realized there was flavoring inside (beef), it went quicker. So yesterday I decided to give him another bone from the bag and this is what it looks like already, no bacon grease needed.




This is Wookie's favorite place too, he has a bit of a foot/shoe fetish. He doesn't chew on them, he just likes to lay on them and lick them!





Now that he knows he likes the inside and chewing them apart, he loves them!
