Anatomy of a Stick!

The Anatomy of a Stick

For all you science buffs Heidi and I have completed the definitive work on the inner workings of a stick. All your questions are answered such as:

- Why do sticks do what they do?
- Are sticks habit forming?
-Where do sticks go when we lose them?
-Which end of the stick should I hold?
-Buy, lease or rent?
-Sticks in the house? Is it possible?
-If sticks are so great why doesn’t my master chew them?
-What’s the ideal age for a stick?
-City sticks? Do they exist?
-How do I determine the proper size stick?

The illustration on top shows you the working parts of a stick.

Next we’ll look inside a typical stick to see what makes it tick. Heidi and I did a CAT scan (isn’t that funny? Two dogs do a CAT scan!) on a stick and were surprised to learn that sticks are quite boring on the inside which leads us to believe that the ‘stick essence’ is located on the surface. Stick essence is what attracts dogs to sticks. This overwhelming attraction remains one of the great canine mysteries.
