Dale usually takes care of Athena in the morning. That means getting her out for an initial pee, getting her fed, getter her her meds, and getting her her bone. When he's gone, it's on me.
Now, the bone is just a treat but it's a treat with a purpose. It buys Dale a little more time to enjoy his morning coffee before Athena wants to go out again for her 2nd walk of the day, usually to poo.
I've continued to give Athena her bone after her breakfast for the same purpose of buying a little more time with my coffee before she wants to go out again.
Now this bone is actually a plastic Kong toy with some openings to but treats in. We usually add some pieces of string cheese at one end...
... Put a little shredded cheddar in next...
...And then seal the cheddar in with some peanut butter. Athena's pretty good about getting it all cleaned out but it takes a little time and effort.
