    Default Bone treats and crying

    The last week or so Petunia has been crying whenever she gets her teeth cleaning bones. She walks around with it in her mouth crying and looking for a place to hide it. Now she does it for about 5 minutes after every bone i give her, chewy treat bone, or nyla bone? Has anyone else seen this, what it about?

    My mom's chihuahua does that with her favorite toy....wanders around with it and whines until she finds a place to put it. I don't know exactly why they do that, but I think it's pretty commom and I think it's a female thing, but I could be wrong.

    It could well be a female thing.
    I have seen my mother in law do this with a new ornament - wander around fretting out loud "Now where should this go? Do you think here? Or would it clash with the teak? Maybe if I move this one and put it here then I can put that one...." and so forth.

    Phoebe does this. Well she doesnt cry while shes walking around with it, but some of her biscuits, or chewies she will hide for a later date...usually her hiding place is right out in the open where everyone can see it, like just stashed in a corner somewhere.
