Buster's Cookie Jar

My dog also loves his COOKIES. As a matter of fact, every dog on my street comes to my house for their cookies. The lady across the street was laughing as she told me she was keepin her granddaughter one day & her dog was laying in the yard at her feet sleeping. She told her granddaughter "let's go inside & get a cookie." She said her dog jumped up & ran to my door waggin her lil tail. She didn't understand why but I knew her dog wanted one of my cookies. As a matter of fact her dog used to come over frequently, knock on my door then sit up & beg with her front feet when I opened the door. How could I say no???

I keep the treats in a bowl that my son made when he was in elementary school. Gus and Cookie know the word "biscuit" and will come running! They know, like Buster, where their treats are kept!

My dog is so old now, she doesn't like treats. I used to give her treats and she knew what they were. My pooch is close to 14 yrs. old. Enjoy your Buster while he is young, they do get old quickly.

No we don't have a jar, his just stays in the box and he just knows them as treats and no other name. He used to love to go to the bank with us because they used to give the dogs a treat but have stopped that but he still likes to ride along anyway. A few fast food places here also give treats for the people with dogs in the car. When our dog hears the box, even if you try not to make any noise at all, he can still hear it and comes running for his treat.

That's adorable! Our lab Rose, gets a treat every time she goes potty outside (just so she'll never "forget") and she knows where they are. If you forget within the first minute those baleful eyes look up at the treat jar and then at you, the jar, then you. We have a used plastic coffee can to keep her treats fresher. And keep it on top of the fridge (more to keep the kids from overfeeding her treats than to keep her out).

hi Grandpa Bob I havent been able to have a dog for years, but when we had our own house, I had my dog Swap, we got her at a swap meet for three dollars.I had a special jar for her treats too.She would run over to the counter where I kept this old cookie jar for Swap and if you did not heed her she would give off with a loud bark, then a soulful woooof,as though her heart was just breaking. So of course she got her treats. I had not thought a bout that in ages.

Hi there Grandpa Bob, That Jar is so cute. I love it. No i don't have Jar for Rado yet. I just put the big bag of his cookies in the corner at my room. Those cookies finish so fast! Happy posting to you too!! oxox'dian

I give Tina (my dog) home-cooked food. She gets an occasional biscuit, and she loves it. But we don't have a separate jar for it. :) She is quite used to bones and brown rice and broth. LOL Cheers and happy mylotting

No we don't have a treat jar. He has a couple different boxes of treats right now though. We moved and he really likes his little backyard. We had to walk hime verywhere when we were in the condo. In fact, he likes the backyard so well, I'm bribing him with treats to get him back in the house. Stubborn little bugger. Kids you can drag back in, but the dran dog I can't catch. I left him out there today and there's that little face peeking in eventually.

Hi GRANDPA BOB! Yes, we do have a glass container that is tightly sealed for our dogs' treats. we can't just use ceramic jars since the ants will surely invade it. haha..So, we just have glass containers that have tight lids. And whenever I take the glass jar out for them to see, they will be barking non stop until I give one each to them. However, I tease them until they keep on jumping on their feet. haha.. Take care always..God Bless!

Now you're making me feel like a mean Mummy! My dogs don't get ANY treats, let alone have them in a special jar for them. Poor doggies!

This is too cute! i don't have a pet dog at the moment, so I don't have the need to buy a special cookie jar. When we had a dog before, we gave treats from the fridge. I know it's unhealthy, but we'd give Lulu a piece of chocolate or skittles; something that's not entirely dog food hehe. I think your Buster's a smart dog to have figured out where you keep his snacks.

Oh, bless him! My Mum has a little dog who knows all her toys by name. If she's asked to fetch them, she'll go to the right one and bring it - every time! Dogs are amazing, intelligent and great fun. It's a great idea having a personal biscuit jar for a pet.

I love hearing stories about pets! I think that Buster is adorable! I am sure that he dont care what you call them there snacks: Cookies, puppy treats, Scoobey sancks! He just wants them!

That is so cute. With Sherlock all I have to do is ask him if he wants a yummy, and he starts getting excited and jumps around. Or if I'm in the kitchen and he can't even see me, he can hear me open his sack of "yummies", and he will come running. It is so funny that he can identify which sack I'm opening. I can open plenty of things in the kitchen, but he only comes running when he hears that particular sack open.

I have a plastic container to keep Petie's cookies in. He gets cookies every once in a while. Petie can dance and do some other tricks.

My dogs and cat's all know what a "snack" is, just like my kid's, I yell snack and it looks like the damn has burst and they are all running to keep from drowning, LOL. I keep my four legged kid's snacks on top of a white storage cabinet by the sliding glass door. I only allow all my kids to have a snack once a day,and it is after dinner, and before bedtime. If I haven't given my Momma cat Zipper her snack by say 10 at night, she will come crawl up my leg meowing, if that doesn't work, she trys to climb a wire storage bin that I keep the kids chips and stuff on that sits beside the cabinet. I really have some spoiled brats at my house, LOL. Blessings Marilyn

I think I have the same jar! LOL It makes it nice for organization and my puppy goes nutty when the lid comes off.

Hi Grandpa Bob, I love the way Buster loves his cookies.. My dogs know about cookies too. They know after they go out and go potty, they get a cookie. I think sometimes they really don't have to go potty, they just want a cookie. They sure learn fast. I added a pic of their several cookie jars and treats. In the jars are vegetable cookies, milk bone, pup corn, dog bakery cookies, and some other healthy treat I picked up. Their favorite, especially for Miss Precious Shelby, is chicken jerky. The dang stuff runs $13.00 a bag at Walmart and with five dogs, it doesn't last all that long.(they are only allowed one a day) That's ok though, if we are a little short on the finances for the week, we'll go without something to make sure the pups have their jerky treat! [i]Happy MyLotting, Char[/i] They aren't spoiled, are they????

That is so funny... I have had a Min Pin for 10 years. I keep having to change the name of food or treats to have a discussion with people. He knows cookies, treats, biscuits, as well as, hungry, breakfast, lunch, dinner, eat.... too smart for his mommy. So if you have any ideas for new words let me know
