In bad taste

Our Boston Terrier Okay, this is NOT the kind of story Mama wants to see but every dog owner has one like this: Tug was asleep in my lap and "broke wind." (Hey, we all do it!!!) Of course, it woke him up and he sat up so fast to look at his hind end he almost fell off my lap. He just didn't understand what had happened...

He eats a nice kibble for his meals and we hand feed it to him as his "treats." It's our way of keeping track of how much food he's getting. Anyway, we'd always heard that dog trainers use liver so we bought some "natural" type treats with less additives than most. Of course, he does love them but no one (absolutely not one rat fink) warned us about the increased potency of emissions these treats induce. I never imagined a little puppy who wasn't even 6 lbs. could stink that badly. It was horrible! Worse yet was when he had to do his "business." Lord have mercy!! He was immediately taken off those treats. I don't care how much he liked them- it simply was not worth it. (It also took a full day to get out of his little system.)
