Ah, didn't realize it was just another case of you rotten americans calling
things by the wrong names as per usual, --- I'm sure you do it deliberately
just to confuse the rest of the world :D.
Seriouslyit sounds like one of those "hoover/vaccume cleaner" cases, where
the brand name of something is being used rather than the thing itself. Over
hear I've only ever heard people refer to those sorts of things as gravy
biscuits, heck only certain brands are bone shaped. However with the name of
the game being "superdog's bone hunt" and the generally cartoony type of
idea of dogs hunting for bones I did sort of assume that what you were
finding in the game were supposed to be bones, rather than treats.
Beware the Grue!

Hi Dark,
The gravy bones are exactly what I'm talking about. MilkBone is just a
specific brand of gravy bones. Basically, just dog biscuits in a bone
shape with chicken or beef treats that are hard and crunchy. Just
another case of Americans calling them one thing and you Brits calling
them something else. I'm sure you have them, but perhaps not
specifically that brand.
Cheers!

Ah, but suppose the necromancer was using the bones of a long dead army

had been defeated in battle, ---- then they would be very battered bones!
:D.
the necromancer suggestion wasn't exactly planned as serious :D.
I will admit I didn't realize that the bones in superdog's bone hunt
weren't
the real sort, sinse I don't think we have milk bone treats over here.
There
are lots of bone shaped dog treats, for example Reever regularly has
gravy
bones, which are a sort of meaty flavourted dry biscuit in a bone shape,
and
hyde bones, which are made out of dried sticks of animal hyde, (those are
a
real treat), but I've not come across milk bones before.
Then again, guide dogs over here are quite strict on diets, especially
for
labradors like Reever who regularly have stomach problems, so it is
entirely
possible the milk bone treats are sold over here but I've not come across
them sinse generally when I'm buying stuff for Reever it has to be very
specific brands.
All the best,
Dark.
