Milk Bones Quote by Jackie French Koller

“Get a dog biscuit out of that cabinet there,” Mr. Jones told Denny. Denny found a box of Milk-Bones and took one out. Mr. Jones was picking up his tools. Denny held the bone out to him. “Give it to him, not me,” said Mr. Jones. “Do I look like I want a Milk-Bone?” quote by Jackie French Koller
