Funny Fancy
Fancy is a very treat/food oriented dog. She is always in the mood for a
treat and will sit as still as her butt allows then take the treat from me *very* gently. She sticks out her little bottom teeth and just barely gets the edge of the treat before she then scarfs it down. We made homemade dog biscuits and packaged them in jars for the Boxer Bash. I bought 2 of them, BBQ and Honey Peanut Butter. I opened the HPB on Sunday and have been amazed at this dog. She acts like these treats are the most precious things in the world. I've never seen Fancy savor anything but she savors these. Once she takes it from my hand, she high-tails it to an unpopulated room of the house, looks over her shoulder to be sure no one followed (I've actually had to sneak up on her), lays down, places the little piece between her front paws and then NIBBLES. When she's finished, she licks are chops and saunters back to wherever the people are. Its really funny. These treats are like European chocolates to her or something. -- Tara |

Aww, I had one who did that and he'd even lift his lips like a horse. The best I've ever had was Mary. She would be very careful about taking something from my fingers but with Amie, she'd wait until the food/treat was in Amie's palm. She wouldn't take from Amie's fingers but would "lip" it off the palm of her hand. I thought that was incredible, taking that extra safety precaution with a child, and Mary having been an untrained, neglected adolescent herself. -- Tara |

My sweet little pitbull rescue boy Ozzy is apparently a little unsure about treats. When I offer him something, he carefully sniffs it before gently taking it. My older girl Lulu has more of the "grab swallow and then taste it" technique. EmilyS |
