I usually don't do the whole "stuffed kong" thing for Mika. But lately we've both had to work a lot and haven't had a lot of one on one attention time for the pup. That means she gets extra whiny. It doesn't help that my brother has been up a couple times in the last couple weeks and Mika loves him to pieces and then misses all the attention as soon as he's gone.

So tonight Karl desperately needed to get some work done and I needed a nice way to get her to just hang out for a bit. So I tried the Kong thing. I didn't even do all that good of a job.. just threw in some crushed up treats, a little peanut butter, a couple more treats and a plug of peanut butter over the end. You would think that I'd handed her a solid rubbery lump of peanut butter or something. She's been at it for about 45 minutes.

This is fantastic and I'm an idiot for not doing it more often.
