Udo, aka Mr. Bear, loves his chicken-flavored treats. We call them crunchies, and crunchies is his favorite word. They are an excellent motivator when I need to bribe him to sit still for, say, a photo.
He managed to hurt his shoulder muscles recently, so he got a trip to see his favorite vet on Tuesday. She also bribed him with treats and gave him some doggie ibuprofen to help him heal up. Our recovery plan is more walks and less wrestling, but he’s okay with it as long as he still gets his crunchies.
