Sasha is the same way with bully sticks. Usually, I'm able to get one away from her with a small piece of cheese as I found out that she cares more about the cheese than the bully stick. However, the last time she had a bully stick, I was distracted and hadn't noticed that she had broken it into 3 pieces. I immediately got a piece of cheese and offered it to her only this time, I think she knew what I was up to. She really wanted the cheese but she also really wanted the pieces of the bully stick. She grabbed 2 of the pieces in her mouth and then snatched the piece of cheese right out of my hand and unfortunately nicked my finger in the process. I was able to get 1 piece away from her. Needless to say, I do not give her bully sticks anymore. Any other type of treat she's fine and she's not food aggressive either. I can stick my hand in her bowl any day. For some reason, there just must be something about bully sticks. |
