I suspect we'll go through a few in the coming years. <br />Jet has certainly enjoyed his chickeny treat!

I'm hoping to ask my neighbour if they'd mind me having their apples - they don't seem to be interested in them at all!

I wonder if the inventor was a lacrosse player? Jet would chase it for hours if we let him - he quivers with excitement at the very thought! Our previous dog would chase after it a couple of times, then just wander off to sniff another dogs bottom .... Each to their own :) Happeninguponhappinesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03613360081052257464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119376122956703271.post-42899238285972206472015-08-25T17:57:46.711+01:002015-08-25T17:57:46.711+01:00Brilliant plan.

He didn't care and was shattered when we got back :) Happeninguponhappinesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03613360081052257464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119376122956703271.post-60977953991892752122015-08-25T17:55:58.241+01:002015-08-25T17:55:58.241+01:00Yes, I grew up with my parents making stock and pi...Yes, I grew up with my parents making stock and picking over the bones for the dog to have a treat! It comforts me that, although my parents are no longer physically with me, they are there in spirit!

They love it. <br /><br />One of our dogs loves to chase a tennis ball and barks until we throw it. The other dog likes to chase a tennis ball for a little while but will then suddenly drop it and leave it behind. By the time we notice that she isn't carrying it, we can't find it!SusanMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09622557936441532144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119376122956703271.post-29216478557231621062015-08-25T16:10:03.718+01:002015-08-25T16:10:03.718+01:00Do you freeze your apples after stewing them?
