The Co-Workers Need to Learn Some Manners: #ILoveMyk9, #CBias

Pin It
Yesterday you all met Hubs' new co-workers. Affectionately known as the mutts around here. Our four large fur babies are now sharing a space with Hubs as he works from home. Our pups range in age from 11 years old to 3 years old. They all know how to sit and give high fives. Our youngest, Peanut, also knows how to lie down. An important trick that they don't know yet is stay. 

It is a pretty important skill for them to know now that they are in such close proximity to Hubs. The UPS man is an almost daily visitor and the co-workers tend to get a bit nuts when he comes a knocking. I had loaded up on some fantastic treats for the mutts to help them with their varying issues. Those treats are calorie dense and will not be good for training.

After church on Sunday I just added low-cal treats to my shopping list. I headed to Walmart with high hopes of getting some Milk-Bone® biscuits, Lean Pup-Peroni Treats and some Milo's Kitchen Treats. 

I easily found the Milk-Bone® biscuits and Lean Pup-Peroni Treats but the Milo's Kitchen Treats were nowhere to be found, bummer. I did however find a rocking coupon for $2 when I bought a box of Milk-Bone® biscuits and a box of Lean Pup-Peroni Treats/ Milo's Kitchen Treats! You know how I love a coupon and it was a peelie so I didn't even have to use my own ink. 

I have started the process of training the co-workers to stay. They seem to be pretty excited about this required training as it involves free food. I will report back next week with the results and some how-to's!
