That is a really great idea. Let us know whether that's feasible; if it is, you and your partner should patent it before you show it to anybody. $350 last time I checked.

Kendall - Why exactly did you buy veal wang? I mean, I got an awesome lengua burrito from taqueria Arandas tonight, but wang? I guess I'm asking what you plan to do with the calf penis.

It's for the puppy to chew on, it's dried out and quite similiar to a rawhide bone. I think I bought it more for the novelty of freaking out certain people. ;)

No run-of-the-mill, boring old pig's ears for your dog, huh, Kendall?

Ahh but this is a new age woo-woo dog shop! I wasn't aware of that when I walked in.

Mikey: Pig ears next time or a cow leg bone maybe. They had all kinds of weird stuff in there, like hambugers.

The only time my dogs get hamburger is when part of mine falls on the floor.

Frakking new-agers.

They had a bunch of types too:

Turkey
Bison
Beef

They even had tripe.

I'm with you though, I might give her a patty if I have an extra one but I'm not buying dog specific ones.

Careful with the long beef bones - they can cause a little doggy diarrhea.

I think it's the marrow or something. Just make sure to match the size of the bone to the size of the dog. Nothing wrong with good old pig ears or snouts, or rawhides.
