A Meal Fit for a King, or Queen (Diesel)

This afternoon Mom took me on a road trip to our favorite pet supply store, Pet Depot. We needed to get more dog food, again (I eat a LOT!). One of the reasons we go to Pet Depot is that they carry our brand of all natural food- Wellness. They don't sell Wellness at the grocery store or in superstores like Petsmart, in fact the only other place Mom can buy it around here is Whole Foods, but it costs more there. Wellness is special and tasty because it's made with premium, human-grade ingredients — including pure protein sources and wholesome grains, fruits and vegetables for their antioxidant power, phytonutrient rich botanicals and herbs for wellbeing, and utilize omega-fatty acids for cellular function (I am not smart enough to know big words like these- I copied them from the bag!). The first ingredient on the bag is deboned chicken, which is important to Mom and we love her for it! Here's my bag of puppy formula and Lola's Super5 Mix, which I am inspecting for quality assurance purposes in this picture:
I hear that when Lola was little, she was kinda picky about food and wouldn't eat it just dry (not me, I'd eat dirt if you put in my bowl!). So, in addition to her dry Wellness, Her Highness also gets some other holistic, gourmet, fancy-pants wet food with her meals- Merrick. Lola prefers the poultry varieties and her favorite is called Smothered Comfort... It has real whole chicken thighs right in the can!
Since I was so good in the car, mom treated me by getting us these amazing raw beef bones. She asked the guy at the store what he recommends for "chewers" like me, and he led us to the refrigerator and pulled out these frozen bones. Lola and I went NUTS over them, and even though Mom thinks they're pretty gross, she really seemed to love how they occupied us for so long...
