One of our latest discoveries about Achilles is that he LOVES apple slices. LOVES them. Actually, no. Let me clarify. Achilles does not love apple slices in general. He loves McIntosh apples. He has no interest in Gala apples. He could care less about Red & Delicious apples. We have yet to try Granny Smith, but I don't expect him to care much for them, either. But McIntosh apples? Now THAT is a delicacy. Have you ever heard of a dog who loves apples? And better yet, a dog who loves only a particular kind of apples?
Here is photographic evidence of Achilles enjoying a delicious McIntosh apple.
Note the apple piece hanging out the side of his mouth, and the crazy tongue action.
The best part about Achilles and his apples is how he eats them. When you give him a slice he'll run off with it, usually to one of his "safe" spots, like his pillow on the floor (as seen above) or his favorite blanket. Then he'll bite it to break it up into little pieces and eat it one piece at a time. Then he takes each piece in his mouth and throws his head back, pushing the apple to his back teeth and he just chomps away! It's hilarious to watch. So, why not watch for yourself? Below is a video, courtesy of Molly, of Achilles enjoying his morning apple during her visit:
Awww! Look at that face!
