Sylar on the 2011 Canine Odyssey |
We have the first scene from 2001 Space Odyssey happening at home. I recently bought a new type of kong toy. It looks like the usual kong toy-but it’s huge and not for chewing. You put treats in it and there is a small opening on the side. The point is to roll it around and at the right angle the treats fall out.
The monolith
So I added the favorite dog treats inside. Once unrolled, I felt like I was watching the monolith scene (with the apes) from the movie. After wondering what it was (yet they could smell treats)-they treated it like it was a totally alien object. The largest dog (Athena) tried to dominate it by sitting by it. She didn’t quite get it, but had to dominate it. I showed them that treats fall out of it. They still kept looking at it, as if it was the monolith in 2001 Space Odyssey. After I did some ‘refereeing,’ Sylar (smallest dog) is the most curious and is constantly trying to figure out what to do with this. I wonder if Sylar will invent a tool now…..
