Sticky Feet

Ouch!! What's this stuck to the bottom of my foot?!

The other day, I must have stepped in tree sap somewhere in the yard. That stuff is really sticky. Before I knew it, every step I took, I was getting more stuff stuck in and on my paw. It hurt, so I held my foot up off the ground.

My mom noticed that I was not putting my foot down. She held my paw and felt up in the center of my pad. Ouch. It still hurt! She pulled out a huge rock from the center of my pad. That felt alot better, but there was still sharp pebbles stuck up there as well.

Mom told me and my sister to lay on our bed, so we did. Then she pulled out a scoop of peanut butter!! WOW! Our favorite treat! For some silly reason, she was rubbing the peanut butter all around my foot. I'm not sure why, but it felt good and it tasted great! The peanut butter helped to clean the tree sap out of my foot and we got a treat at the same time!

I wonder if I'll get more peanut butter if I hold my foot up in the air again?
