This was good advice. I often hold them too just to remind them that they are really MINE and I'm just letting them chew on them. Mine occassionally get possessive of the bully sticks between the two of them. But the minute they do, they get put away. (Actually, they don't get them much any more simply for that reason. They have little self control!)
