First Grenson has the bone and Molly tries to steal it from him... Then Molly has the bone and it is Grenson's turn to covet it. It is only a small chunk of bone, but I love the varied tactics employed by each of them as they try to take it from the other. Molly (11.5) is gentle, but persistent - building up to boisterous, whilst Grenson (9 months) resorts to a combination of clowning around, stirring, diversion tactics, persistent patience and - his forte - annoyance to the point of despair!! But beneath it all, he knows who is the true boss, and although she is a gentle giant who never hurt a fly, she capitalises on this, toying with him and daring him to challenge her. Funny - there is no food aggression between them - they happily switch dishes at dinner time and never fight about food - but here Molly's hard-fought gain (combined with a bitey-face game) was not something she was going to give up easily!
