Greenies - Good or Bad?

Here I am ready and waiting to go and mom pulls out that camera thing......pleeeeeease mom, we are going to the pet store, I am excited and I DON'T want to stand still for another picture......okay if you insist, but you will be getting my hypnotic "I want to go to the pet store, I want to go to the pet store, I want to go to the pet store" look. Good - that worked, now let's GO! So off we went. Now the mom being ever vigilant noticed a new stand of Greenies on display. Some where in the back of mom's mind (a very scary place she says) she remembered there being a problem with these a few years ago. Mom wondered what other puppers mom's and dad's thought about these dental treats.

Me, I was just happy sniffing all the shelves and saying hello to everyone. There seems to be quite a few new people working in the store and they are much friendlier then the old staff. I certainly like them as I got a whole big doggie type oreo cookie filled with peanut butter and I stuffed the whole thing in my mouth, not one bit dropped!. Dog oh dog was it good....I didn't even care when it was sticking to the roof of my mouth and I looked funny trying to lick it off......it was just soooooooooo yummy. Then we went to see the birds...mom likes to talk to the Sun Conure they have...I am not so fond of him, he sqwarks at me when I jump up to look at him. We also had at look at the bunnies and there was one that looked like me (white with black patches). I jumped up and said hello to the ferrets, they always come and press their noses to the glass.....mom isn't so fond of them, she says they smell bad. Then we checked out the fish and as mom was looking, a silly Oscar fish a couple of tanks away jumped out and landed on my back before flopping to the ground. Mom quickly scooped it up and put it back in the tank and it was fine. It was lucky I was was standing there and it had a soft landing but it gave me such a fright too!!!! I thought it might of been a dog fish trying to attack me!!!! Then we went to get a new finger tooth brush for me.....I tried to tell mom I didn't need it but she gave me one of those looks that says "mom knows best" and that was the end of that conversation. Moms can be very stubborn at times. We were going to go to the park after the pet store but with the rain we had yesterday the humidity is just terrible, in fact there is a fog like haze everywhere. The mom really doesn't like humidity and I am not so fond of it either, so although I would have liked a walk at the park, we can home. Mom did promise NOT to do my teeth until tomorrow so at least that is a good thing.
Woofitty woof
