Mia got her very first marrow bone tonight from the grocery store. It's 5 inches of raw, slightly meaty, marrow filled goodness and she's eating it under the dining room table as though we're going to steal it away from her. She's in doggie heaven. Someone I work with told me that when she needs like 1.5 hours of silence from her dog she does this and I didn't really believe that it would work with Mia but I just had to know. The woman was right, this is perhaps the best dog sitter there is even more than her peanut butter kong which gets demolished with her extra long tongue in 20 minutes.
New things from Mia this week:
She's learned how to stalk her prey in a playful manner. She flattens herself low to the ground (even her head and ears), sneaks up on an unsuspecting dog, and then quickly and quietly runs and pounces right in front of them. It's the cutest thing, and the other dogs love it.
We got Pet Rider seat covers for the cars. Previously, we were using beach towels which work fine but sometimes she messes them up to make the perfect bed. They are kind of cheap and there is probably a better quality product out there, but these do the trick just fine keeping your back seat clean (they are waterproof) and hair free. Mia doesn't seem to mind them either.
Sometimes if we're home we'll let her come into the bed after she's used the bathroom and eaten breakfast for a 15 minute snooze. She loves this and basically pushes us out of the bed - this is also why she can't ever sleep there during the night. It's a bad habit for sure, but it can't be a daily thing since we're up and going so early in the morning during the work week.
