It was Burt's birthday on Sunday (also angel WINston XXLP's). The Mom and the Dad took Burt and I to the park for a walk. Then we went to a different, smaller pet supply store (we usually go to the PetSmart and the Petco where the Mom once worked).

Burt FREAKED! He did NOT like going to a new place. He did NOT like meeting new people. I hardly had a chance to sniff around and get some treats from the employees admiring my beautifulness. Burt kept jerking around and trying to bolt for the front door, so we left :(

The Mom and the Dad bought Burt a couple of new "babies" (the word Burt associates with little stuffies). They also bought me and Burt these things called "Merrick Bones". I don't get it. The bone SMELT good, but it's HARD! Not worth the trouble, if you ask me...

(but the stinkin' CAT liked the bones! He was licking them and biting the grizzle off of them. Go figure...)

Give them a chance.. bones are GREAT !!!

Flicka would hate the pet places.. Lucas might be ok though.. they have never been.

how on earth can your dad do that?? I can't believe he would not let you snack a little or at least sniff.............. I am so sorry Dixie :o(
And then on top of that he gets you a bone made so hard, you can't even chew it. You could suck it for a while and then it gets soft.. Jojo does that.
Like Flicka said - give it a chance and take your time..
