Skwerlz like da P-Nut

Even when HoneyBear, my St. Bernard, was a puppy he was very picky about his treats often leaving me disappointed after buying him a bag of the most yummy biscuits the pet shop had to offer. After a lot of trial and error it turned out he liked these little peanut shaped and flavoured biscuits that you could buy by the ton at Wal-Mart for $2. Figures. After moving out east I had a very difficult time finding them but found another biscuit he liked, P-Nuttier, which are not anywhere near as cheap as the previous brand. You know your wallet starts groaning when the package has the words like 'wholesome' and 'oatmeal and apples' on it. He's nearly 80 in dog years so I spoil him, it's true.

This morning, however, I found that not only does HB like the P-Nuttier biscuits but so does a huge, fat, rolly-polly squirrel who haunts the yard and, apparently, finds plenty of HB's leftovers to make the trip worthwhile. Squirrels appear to have a weakness for peanut butter. Hmm. Maybe I should continue to fatten him up and grill 'em for dinner. HB caught a squirrel once when he was a pupppy so he's rather bored with the idea of chasing them these days and I'm beginning to think he intentionally leaves crumbs behind for this corpulent squirrel :) mmmm...cornbread and squirrel for dinner.
