Well, you know cats and fish .. bringing squid in the house makes my cats
crazier than any other type seafood.  Last night I made some Haddock for
dinner and the cats couldn't have cared less..

The dogs don't seem to care about squid though hehe.. now if the dogs smell
something made with sugar in it, they won't leave you alone.. I attribute that
to the times when we run out of dog food, and we buy cheaper dog food at the
mart down the street..  you know, rather than the type that's better for them
hehe. Maybe that's what your guys liked about the chapstick stuff..

The dogs here also go nuts when they _see_ a box of dog biscuits :)  I saw an
article recently on one of the news sites about how dogs can identify other
dog's faces.. made me wonder if THAT is what they are remembering since
there's a dog on the box :) (MilkBone box).

you, the dogs work with them too to try to get you to drop the thing. :)

Take care,
