Bone Burying Is Real!

Baobob loves to chew and because the local supermarkets cut up their bones we have purchased  rawhide bones instead. He loves them. We love that he expends his energies on the rawhide rather than my socks. Win-win. Then, like he is trying to be the most stereotypical dog ever, he started burying pieces of his bone in the garden. You can see the tip of the bone still above ground right at the point of his nose.

 Until now, I thought this behavior (as portrayed in this, one of my Dad's favorite commercials*) was an urban legend. Serena guesses he started doing it after our friend Tina came over and pet him while he was chewing, something he misinterpreted as her trying to take his bone.

*I am actually just guessing this is the ad I remember, but considering how intermittent the internet can be here, I could not actually watch the video to confirm.
