My Giant Bone

A few weeks ago, my Daddy bought me a big, giant, rawhide bone! It was so big I almost couldn't put my mouth around it.

I love rawhide bones, but I had no idea they made them this big. Apparently, they make them even bigger.

At first I didn't know what to do with it! It seemed too big to eat so I just stared at it and licked it.

I might have whined a few times too.
I eventually got to the point where I could carry it in my mouth. Normally I my nylabones or rawhide bones at the end, but this time, I carried the bone like a real dog.
My favorite place to chew bones is on the couch on top of Mommy's blanket. I know, that seems kind of gross but, she would rather have bone residue on her washable blanket than her couch.
Rawhide is hard to clean off of a microsuede couch.
Mommy came over to take my picture and I thought she was going to steal my bone. Once I learned how to carry it and chew on it, I became very possessive over my new toy!

Believe it or not, I ate the entire bone. It's all gone. OK. Well, I almost ate the entire bone, I would have if Mommy stopped shoving her fingers in my mouth to pull out the almost swallowed 4'' chunks of rawhide. My parents keep throwing away the ends or the last little bits' and pieces because they are too afraid I'm going to choke on it.


Anyway, we were laying on the couch and Mommy tried to pet me. I thought she was going to try to take away my rawhide bone. Well, I growled at her. I got away with it while she took this video, but the second time I tried to growl at her like this I got in trouble and I got my rawhide bone taken away from me!

How did you manage to get your jaws around that bone . . . much less eat the whole thing?!? Are you sure you aren't a labrador in disguise?

I also have tried to be assertive whenever my parents get near me when I am eating . . . unfortunately, I have learned this is not the wisest move . . .

WOW! That's a huge bone! (And I don't mean that in a dirty way. Wait, no, that was just wrong. I'm sorry).
