For bones: break pretzel rods into various lengths to make 40 pieces. Microwave ½ cup white chocolate in small microwave-safe bowl on HIGH at 30-second intervals or until melted, stirring each time. Use the melted chocolate to attach 2 mini marshmallows to both ends of each pretzel piece; let dry. Transfer pretzel bones to a wire rack in a rimmed baking pan.
