When Nyx got her first elk antler, it was love at first bite. At first, she sniffed it curiously, nudging it around with her nose as if trying to figure out what it was. But once she realized it was hers, there was no going back — she settled in with determination, chewing away with all the focus in the world.
The sound of her strong jaws working away was almost rhythmic, like she had found her perfect pastime. She’d pause every now and then, glance up at me with those proud eyes, then dive right back in. It was as if she was saying, “This is the best thing you’ve ever given me.”
Beyond just a treat, that antler became her treasure. It kept her entertained, satisfied her natural instincts, and gave her endless joy. Watching her so content, so proud of her prize, reminded me how the simplest things often bring the most happiness. For Nyx, that elk antler wasn’t just a chew — it was a moment of pure bliss.
