I'm Sorry Babies........


Yesterday...while doing the "snows coming...stock up" shopping....
I grabbed a bag of...what i thought was....the fur babies favorite treats...


See that blurred small print on the way far side of the bag...."Actual Size"...

I have little dogs...big barkers...but, little mouths.......these are made for Great Danes...!!

The ones i usually get are about 2 1/2" long and 1/2" in width....
These are huge!!.....twice the size!!

I think i heard Max's jaw "pop" when i tried to give him one this AM!!
and Mia gave me the "don't think sooooo" look.....

What's a Mom to do....????!!


Dig out that 30 year old electric knife.....the one that's only used at Thanksgiving....
The one...your now glad you didn't throw out in the big move.....

And you start cutting away.......cause a trip back to WalMart ..... on the morning before a major snow storm ....is out of the question!!


Hey Look!!

With a little "sawing" away....you can make "little" dog treats...!!!

The fur babies are happy.....
And that's the name of the game!!

Enjoy

  8. I love it!!!! I did something similar with Puddin's treats but gave them away. I actually have one of those knives so maybe I will be able to be more frugal next time.

  9. Oh Linda Mae!!!! Did I ever tell you we lived in SC and NC for a total of 12 years? Well, we did and boys howdy do I EVER remember that "snows coming-stock up" shopping that y'all do down there!!! Heaven forbid that one actually NEEDED bread or milk at that moment 'cause it was about to fly RIGHT OFF THE SHELVES!!!!

    Hubby used to say, "Why do they buy bread and milk? I'd rather get snowed in with STEAK!"

    Up here, we do precious little "snow stock-up" shopping. We just crank up our biggest baddest vehicle and keep on truckin'

    So much fun these memories - - - -

  11. I would never have thought the knife would cut through those treats. Good to know it will just in case that ever happens to us - oh, well I guess I could just give the big ones to our lab, Mikey, though.
