    She should’ve eaten it like a normal person: as a dare when you’re like 8 years old.

      Definitely ate a milkbone on a dare as a kid… honestly I don’t even remember it tasting bad, the only thing I remember is that it was - unsurprisingly - dry as fuck.

        For the record, Hill’s Science Diet was gross. Maybe my friends should’ve dared me to eat a treat instead

      I buy my dog a particular brand of dog treat because the damn things smell SO GOOD. Literally like a bakery. I’ve never eaten one, but I take a big whiff of the bag every time it’s open.

        I have an aunt that makes dog treats for sale at farmers markets.

        They’re basically peanut butter cookies. (I think the big thing is no salt, no sugar, and some special PB that’s not got additives.)

          I’ve made peanut butter cbd dog treats. My husband complains they’re too dry and bland because i use unsalted, unsweetened peanut butter. The dogs like them.

        Alright, now you sound like my late uncle who told me how his carob dog treats were so high quality humans can eat them… I guess I ate more dog food as a kid than I initially thought, but they were NOT good

          I’m so confused. Why would take away your own single upvote? That zero looks sad. Like it’s saying “Even I don’t agree with what I’m saying!”

            They did the same in another thread. Perhaps they’re trying to upvote themselves not realizing it removes the point instead.

              It just feels odd to have an upvote for simply commenting. I mean, it’s not like I’m getting life points or anything. Up or downvotes don’t really matter. It just feels… disingenuous? to have some sort of point for - what I feel - is nothing. So, I just remove it. Maybe I’ll retrain myself to leave it? IDK.

          Grandma Lucy’s organic dog treats are made to be fully human and dog safe and I find them just as tasty as the dog does. They’re like unsweetened Teddy Grahams. I know this because my brother-in-law gets them for his dog and is very amused to offer them as a snack to people as he and the dog both enjoy them.

      My parents had puppies when I was born and I used to roam around with them all day. The day lil baby me discovered that I could access the milkbone cupboard, we feasted like kings.
