Treats

So last week we were finally able to actually go OUT for date night, which is a rare treat.  We headed over to the Potomac Town Center, which is still a work in progress but is going to be awesome once completed.  We shared some shrimp fajitas and had margaritas at Uncle Julios, then we decided to walk around the town center to see what was there.  I also wanted to sample the new fro yo place (oh yes, I said it).

One of the places we stopped was a new store called Unleashed, by PETCO.  It's basically a smaller version of Petco, from what I could figure out.  They had a TON of cute Halloween costumes, but we already have plans for our little family... muhaha.

We checked out all the little toys and treats, and finally decided upon some little bouncy balls.  As we approached the register, there they were.

Deer Antlers.

For dogs?? Oh yes, the woman behind the counter told us. Her little westie absolutely LOVES them.  Being the complete skeptical, overprotective dog-mom, I immediately nixed the idea because there was no way that is healthy!!

It took some convincing, but Joey finally got me to say yes to a small, split antler for each pin.

When we got them home, it was like Christmas.  They had never seen them before, but they knew it was something special.  Chloe was a little freaked out by it, but she took it upstairs to bury it.  Doc wouldn't put it down for the rest of the night.

I'm still only allowing them to have them under supervision, but these little treats were a BIG hit!!!
