Thanks Marty!
That toy is her Kong...I fill it with peanut butter and it keeps her occupied, for a few minutes anyway.
I call her my lap dog because she likes to lean against me and then tries to sneak herself onto my lap......like I won't notice this large furry dog sprawled across me.

Paula - There's NO WAY you can't help notice your Reba! Thats a lotta pooch & a cutie at that! Daisy has a "mini-Kong" also, but I put Milk Bones or Meaty Bones in it - that keeps her busy for a good half hour. She is a strong chewer, but not strong enough to break up the treats!

What are the Meaty bones? Are those the moist ones? I never thought about putting those in there. I tried a combo of peanut butter and treats from the recipes that come with the kong ( yeah...I know...get a life Paula...) but she just licked the peanut butter out and left the rest in there.
I think Reba suffers from the toddler version of reality..."if I cover my eyes or pretend I'm not here, then you can't see me."

Morning Paula!
Meaty Bones are "cookie like" with a crunchy "meaty" center. They fit inside the small Kong without breaking them (Whole). Any treat that fits inside would probably keep Reba busy too - and out of your hair! Daisy will be a year old (already!) on April 22. Time flies - it seems like we got her just the other day...

Is Daisy still growing since she is still a puppy? I just love her coloring...that gorgeous red/brown.
The Meaty bones are supposed to be like marrow bones, aren't they? I'll have to pick some up and put them in there. She is not a big chewer but definitely needs to stay occupied or she tends to go looking for things to carry around in her mouth. Its like having a baby in the house again.
She has a neat dark chocolate color that seems unique! I see she likes to devour her toys too - just like my "half-pint"
