The wonders of mobile phone photography… :P Things moving too fast become a blur and your dog starts to look like… a maniacal vampire? *insert wierd scooby doo laughter*
So the other day we went to buy her a new pack of kibble. There was a shelf of bones by the payment counter labelled pressed bone. Ah pressed bone! I remembered reading that these are the better choice when picking rawhide bones for the dog, versus the knotted ones. (potential choking hazard, intestinal blockage etc, etc warnings). So I snatched a bag on impulse. We are always rushing at the pet shop because we always go when it is the closing hour. :P
So anyway, Donna demolished it faster than her knotted milkbone and I went, “hmmmm…..” and searched online.
The result, our cheap hollow pressed bone on the left and the image of dense pressed rawhide bone found online. Right……

Yes, Donna wants her half-chewed bone back. I gave it back to her and in minutes, it became like this …
Another few minutes and they became smaller pieces, so I got her to “leave it” (very useful command to teach right at the start!!) … and rewarded her with dinner instead.
So yup, now I know pressed bones are supposed to be solid and should be heavier because they are denser. At least I know should I decide to buy some again next time!
