Hide n Go Seek
The husfriend and I recently picked up a box of Kirkland brand bones from Costco (made in the USA!). The dogs love them. We used to buy them for Bender and he would hide them all over the house.
He seems to remember his old ways and has taken to hiding them in couch cushions, under pillows on the bed, in the wires under hisfriend's computer desk and last night in my pile of clothes waiting to be washed.
I was getting ready for bed and couldn't figure out why Bender was so reluctant to join me on the bed. He's usually the first one in bed ready to claim his spot. I shrugged it off and went to bed without him.
Today I stayed home with a stomach bug, but figured I'd better not waste the day, so I decided to start some laundry. Bender became very protective of my clothes when I went to wash them. I figured there was a treat hidden somewhere in them, and sure enough I found a bone. After I found it he had to sulk and eat it.
He's still not happy that I destroyed his hiding place.
What about your dogs? Bones isn't one to hide a treat. If he sees it, it's nom time. Bender hides treats half the time and eats them right away the other half (probably so Bones won't get them.) What about your dog? Are there any other treat hiders out there in blog land? Where is your dog's favorite treat hiding place?

"I'm not doing nothin." *innocent face*
"See Ma, I'm just seepin!"

Blog-iversary
I realized on Monday that as of Sunday 2/13 I've had this blog 1 year. 65 posts in the first year. Not bad, but not so great either.
I'm already slacking on Wordless Wednesday and keeping up with the blog. I'll try to keep up as much as I can.
Valentine's Day was very low key. I gave each dog a bone. They enjoyed it.
A late Valentine's Poem:
"This boney's mine, that boney too,
Wishing a very Happy Valentine's Day to you!"
Thanks to Kelly over at Corgi Butts for point the way to Geri and Sidney over at My Corgi. "last August Sidney was diagnosed with hip dysplasia, and he underwent FHO surgery in order to give him mobility and alleviate some of the pain." Now they give away bandanas and in exchange ask for a donation of $8 for Sidney's fund.
We got our bandanas in the mail today. They're great! I think I may donate some more and get bandanas for all the dogs in my family. If you're interested in one, send Geri a message on My Corgi!
Bender, Bandana, Bone.
Strike a pose. Being sassy in his bandana.
Adorable little brother being a good model.
