Give a dog a bone

Firstly, apologies for the lack of posts recently. I've been off sick with the flu and Noon's been busy with work.

Noon bought a couple of marrowbones from our local butcher yesterday. I'm back at work again today and the dogs have been left alone at home, so we thought it was a good time to give them the bones to keep them busy. Check out the size of the thing! It's been halved down the middle to expose the marrow inside, and I decided to hold it up just give a sense of how big it is.


Both of them were made to wait for permission before we let them loose on the bones. We believe in using food time for reinforcing the "sit-stay" command every day. Most times Sam's salivating so badly while he's sitting there that we don't have the heart to keep them waiting for too long.

More pics of the two of them sitting patiently, Sam with his usual houndog face.


And finally getting stuck into it! Yummy!


Not bad for $1 eh? That's what it cost Noon to get the marrowbone... the last time I went in there, I got charged $2 per bone!

Noon's MUCH better looking than I am :)
