They snort, which is a horse's version of a sneeze. And a snort would certainly spray the camera. To see a horse snort on YouTube, go to horses snorting - YouTube Isn't it amazing what you can find there?

$4 dog toy won't last because it's a $4 dog toy

None of my dogs have ever liked a toy that you couldn't somehow ruin. Nylabones are definitely out of the question. I tried when they were puppies and not a one of 'em would go for it.

Of course, when you have a dog the size of Bo, you would need to spend the equivalant amount per pound of dog about $31:)

Best toy for any dog is a nice marrow bone just big enough that it won't fit completely in their mouth, but not so big that they can get a really good grip on it with their paws :)

Did I forget to mention that I'm an IT guy for a small local B&M pet food store chain?

Yeah, I like it, started out as freelance, then when the economy tanked (along with a frightening number of my clients) I was slowly absorbed into the company. Sometime life works out well no matter how hard you try to avoid it ;)

Same thing happened to me. I was a traditional banker for 25 years, retired and was recalled to set up a small network for a bank. It was supposed to be a 6 month project and I ended up staying 10 years. Tried to retire again and Sarbanes Oxley Law made it so that they needed someone to audit the new IT guy, so I worked from home (laugh job) monitoring his network changes. Finally the bank was bought out and I got to really retire. AND I LOVE IT!:laugh:

There are a few of us computer jockeys here in Voltville, including Awsum140, Konstantine, you, and I.

I just thank the fates for computers because if not for them I would be saying "would you like fries with that" 300 times a day...

Sitting down, facing forward.
Shay, we gave Bo a whole ham shank bone. It lasted about 10 minutes. Nothing left but a few shreds on the towel he was laying on. We do have an empty marrow bone, I think it's artificial, that he only gets once in a while, so we've made it last. He goes through a big Nylabone in about two weeks.
