Hopefully, you'll be able to get the first from her while giving her the second. Yes, it's a trade off, but it will help lessen her possessiveness. If she's the same way with squeaky toys, Hide-a-Squirrel is a great toy as it comes with 3 identical squirrels. (also comes in other varieties)

Hahahaha, you might laugh...but she's good at holding two in her mouth. I've seen her corral 3 chew treats, but two of them have to be getting small for her to do it.

I'm not saying it can't be done, but she's smart and I've tried this before...not saying that repetition isn't key here, but it's funny you said that because I started laughing thinking about how quick she is.
