When I was about six years old I would steal Milk Bones and wafer-type fish 
food then eat them.  Neither one made me sick but I didn't eat too much of 
them.

I know a fellow who takes Milk Bones on extended hikes. He shares them with 
his dogs and claims that they're lightweight fuel with sufficient energy to 
keep them going for the day.  This guy also puts two grown Bouviers on leads 
and roller blades with them. Of course he played hockey in college :->. 
Cesar Millan the TV Dog Whisperer also uses roller blades when he works with 
overenergetic problem dogs.
