It’s tough being a furbaby mom, especially if you have more than one. We love Hope and Scout, and we enjoy giving them treats, but sometimes it gets a little confusing.

You see, this morning I visited the new pet store in Troy, and they had pork bones on special for the grand opening, so I bought two: one for Hope and one for Scout.  Simple, huh?

Well, not so much. I unwrapped them and gave one to each girl- they got up on their sofa and started chewing away.

Everything was great so I came back to the office to start back to work. Soon they came down the hall; Hope had this piece of bone in her mouth, and Scout was barking at her.

So, it comes down to a tough decision- did Scout eat all of hers, and then try to take Hope’s away?

Or…. did Hope eat all of hers, and then decide that Scout wasn’t eating hers fast enough?

I ended up giving it to Hope, and then found another piece hidden in the blankets and gave it to Scout. Hoping that settles things.

Feeling a bit like Solomon in the story of the two mamas – though not quite that dramatic.
