mindless

Do you ever have those days/ weeks that are just off. I am having that happen now. So here are some photos for your enjoyment. I won’t bore you with mindless chatter…

these are way more cute anyways…

also, I saw this on my friend Melissa’s facebook. It is very informative for those that have dogs with frustrations. Remember that nothing is substituted for exercise, but this is something that will help!

Kong Stuffing Recipes
by CDT Kennel Enrichment on Tuesday, January 11, 2011 at 8:42pm

A well stuffed Kong toy is invaluable to dog owners and irresistible to their dogs. In the beginning you may have to let your dog smell what’s inside the Kong and play with them to engage their interest, but after a short while your dog will know that the Kong toy = tasty treats. Freezing a Kong will make it last longer, but some younger dogs may lose interest.

Here are some quick tips:

* Squeeze cheese is great to use to close the small hole in the top of the Kong so the small treats stay inside.
* Always supervise Kong toys with heavy duty chewers.
* Cottage cheese is a healthy low-fat stuffing option.

Here’s our first recipe:

Apple Pie

Apple

Plain Yogurt

Banana, mashed except one piece large enough to lay over hole

Peanut Butter

Squeeze a small piece of apple into the small hole. Fill the Kong with a small amount of plain yogurt. Add some mashed banana, more apple, yogurt and banana. End with a slice of banana and a chunk of peanut butter on the top.
