Hi guys, I think my four babies are abnormal.
After talking with a few others about bones my fiance and I drove practically an hour to buy the babies the raw bones by Nature's Variety. Here I am all happy and excited to give them these new bones. They gross me out (I'm a vegetarian) but I was still excited about them being happy with a new treat.
I get home and grab two old towels and I put the bones down for them. Pia is so picky and I was really wanting her to like them but that didn't happen. She got close to the one bone and made such a nasty face and took off running.
Then Snoot licks the one and just walks away with absolutely no interest what so ever.
Then Paisley walks up to the one and pretty much does the same thing. She took off running and got a toy instead.
Trixie is the absolute worse. I have never seen her act like this over a bone. She was acting so strange and wouldn't go near the bone.
I picked her up and placed her next to one and she freaked out. She started crying in a hysterical way and took off running and hid under the table. I was so confused by her and picked her back up. She just kept crying and then was making really low whimper noises. Finally, she goes back to the bones and covers them all up with the towel. Let me add that she was crying the entire time that she was doing her covering.
When she was done she jumped on her daddy's lap and I swear was even more emotional than her usual self.
What the heck did I do wrong? I thought they would be so happy with some new bones. Needless to say they are now in the garbage. I bought quite a few and still have more in the freezer. I feel so bad that I upset them and you would have thought I was killing Trixie. Has anyone else experienced this type of behavior or are my babies just slightly nutty?
