Greenies, yum!



So, I have a confession to make: I am super addicted to Greenies. This is not an endorsement of any type (although free Greenies from the manufacturer will be graciously accepted), but I have been hiding this shameful secret for awhile. They say the first step to kicking an addiction is to admit you have one, so here I am, taking the first step -- I AM A Greenie JUNKIE.

It all first started when my parents received some Greenies samples at the SuperPet Expo in Edison, NJ last year. My mother, being super cheap (oops, I meant frugal), gathered as many freebies as she could. My parents didn't think I would like the Greenies since they thought it smelled god-awful. But lo and behold! from the first sniff, an addict was born. Daddy gives me a Greenies every night before bedtime, but he makes me do stupid tricks before I am able to get any. I feel so cheap -- it's like a crack addict willing to do anything for the next hit.
The following are blackmail pictures taken by my enabling Mommy to further embarrass me into quitting. Well, it just won't work!

As you can seem, I am a "Petite" fan


C'mon, c'mon, there's gotta be one more in there!

I love greenies too! My Vet said they're bad for me though - something about them hardening in my tummy and making me sick and need surgery.

We don't eat greenies at our house anymore. The furry ones had bad issues after greenies consumption. I don't want to slam these, but your you should be very careful with these treats!

Thanks for the info on Greenies.
This is Frances's Dad and I will check into it as Mommy's Cousin is a Vet. We give her only one a day and see now problems.

I meant that we see no problems.

Aw Frances! You are super cute in those pics! I haven't tried greenies yet. I have heard bad things about them too, but like our vet said - anything can be bad for a dog, if they swallow it without chewing. So, we aren't quite sure what to think!
Love Clover xo

A greenie junkie huh? We've never tried a greenie before. Our Mom is afraid that we might turn into a junkie.

Love, Seadra and Zoe

Yeah, our vet said they were bad too, but they look really yummy!

What are greenies? My mom has never heard of them. I love broccoli. Are they like broccoli?

The Canadian TV channel you have is CBC. Man, CBC 'Hockey Night in Canada' is like as Canadian as it gets. It's been around FOREVER! People use the theme music as a cell phone ringtone.

Greenies are terriffic. So is Super Pet Expo. I love that show. I heard a rumor they will be in Edison twice next year.

My pugs never really took to the greenies. But anything that smells bad is usually a great attraction.
