[NAGDU] Birthday treats

[Cindy Ray]

Well, the way I see it, the birthday party is not for the dog. It makes
people feel warm and fuzzy to do this. The dogs don't know it is their
birthday, and an extra scratch or two, or an extra dog biscuit is wonderful.
I don't celebrate any of my dogs' birthdays. I try feeling sorry for them
but so far it hasn't been successful.

Subject: [NAGDU] Birthday treats

I enjoy giving my dog treats, but I'm not moved to create or buy something
very fancy.  He does enjoy the occasional sweet, but, so far as I can tell,
he's equally happy to get a spoonful of yogurt or peanut butter.  He even
thinks ice cubes are terrific!

Sometimes, my husband and I talk about making an experiment to see which he
would choose, the Petco Oreo, or, say, a hunk of peanut butter.  We haven't
figured out how to present the 2 things to make it a fair test, though.

So, while I think it's great that some people make yummy treats for their
pups, I won't be doing it myself any time soon.

Tracy
