She should've eaten it like a normal person: as a dare when you're like 8 years old.

[-] Ledivin@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

Definitely at a milkbone on a dare as a kid... honestly I don't even remember it tasting bad, the only thing I remember is that it was - unsurprisingly - dry as fuck.

For the record, Hill’s Science Diet was gross. Maybe my friends should’ve dared me to eat a treat instead

I buy my dog a particular brand of dog treat because the damn things smell SO GOOD. Literally like a bakery. I've never eaten one, but I take a big whiff of the bag every time it's open.

I have an aunt that makes dog treats for sale at farmers markets.

They're basically peanut butter cookies. (I think the big thing is no salt, no sugar, and some special PB that's not got additives.)

I've made peanut butter cbd dog treats. My husband complains they're too dry and bland because i use unsalted, unsweetened peanut butter. The dogs like them.

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Alright, now you sound like my late uncle who told me how his carob dog treats were so high quality humans can eat them… I guess I ate more dog food as a kid than I initially thought, but they were NOT good

[-] Late2TheParty@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Why don't you taste-test your dog's food?

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

I'm so confused. Why would take away your own single upvote? That zero looks sad. Like it's saying "Even I don't agree with what I'm saying!"

[-] KnightontheSun@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

They did the same in another thread. Perhaps they’re trying to upvote themselves not realizing it removes the point instead.

[-] Late2TheParty@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

It just feels odd to have an upvote for simply commenting. I mean, it's not like I'm getting life points or anything. Up or downvotes don't really matter. It just feels... disingenuous? to have some sort of point for - what I feel - is nothing. So, I just remove it. Maybe I'll retrain myself to leave it? IDK.

[-] KnightontheSun@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

lol, no problem friend. You do you!

[-] EpeeGnome@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

Grandma Lucy's organic dog treats are made to be fully human and dog safe and I find them just as tasty as the dog does. They're like unsweetened Teddy Grahams. I know this because my brother-in-law gets them for his dog and is very amused to offer them as a snack to people as he and the dog both enjoy them.

[-] Gustephan@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

My parents had puppies when I was born and I used to roam around with them all day. The day lil baby me discovered that I could access the milkbone cupboard, we feasted like kings.

Be honest, 18 years old

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
