That Thing with the Prongs

We Scotties got something new and we’re not really sure what it is, but it’s fun, especially when Wen puts mini Milk-bones on it. Sure, we have to outsmart the thing in order to get the Milk-bones out, but it’s a challenge that we’re definitely up for.

Okay, the new thing is a slow feeder with plastic prongs all over it so dogs who eat too fast are forced to slow down and pick pieces of food out from between the prongs. We’re not using it as a slow feeder though. To us it’s a toy that we slide around the floor as we all try to pick out Milk-bones and believe me, the competition is fierce!

What usually happens though is that Molly gives up first while Sadie and I push the thing across the floor, attacking it, trying to eat the most treats. Then Wen feels sorry for Molly and she tosses extra treats to her while Sadie and I are frantically trying to extract Milk-bones. Yeah, Molly is probably outsmarting us, but we sure have fun chasing that plastic thing with the prongs—at least until we’ve eaten all the treats!
