Veggies and Fruits.......Healthy Treats

[kim n the guys]

everyone already put everything my boys eat, so I'll just say ditto to the all of the above, minus the raisins, grapes and onions!

Well, I wish mine would eat fruit and veggies, I even tried giving them carrots when they were pups but it was a no go. How does one go about getting them to eat it?!

Yep raw with skin as treats anyway.... I had coop on the veggie diet for his so then I boiled a bunch together and made a wonderful veggie mush. Stuff that is in freezer just give him it right out the freezer. I think twice said she even froze the strawberries!

Try not giving any treats for a week or so. Cooper wasn't crazy about his green beans and stuff but when he got sick he didn't get any treats whatsoever....then as he felt better I gave him the veggie and fruit and he act like they are the best thing in the world.... Or just try different things I am sure they will like something. Gracie was a little more picky she didn't like the skin and it would take her a long time to eat anything we gave her but now she is a trooper and loves everything!!

either/or. I have to cook some stuff to leech some minerals out but a healthy dog can eat it either cooked or raw.

Tank loves celery. I tossed him the leafy tops while I was slicing a stalk the other day...he gobbled it right up. Such a dumpster!

Frozen or fresh: green beans, blueberries, bell peppers or sweet peppers, apples, cucumber, carrots, melon, peas, .... I might be forgetting something but these are what Frank gets on a regular basis.

I freeze her strawberries. It's funny to watch her chase it around before she eats it lol

I witness that and it was great! [MENTION=2291]cowsmom[/MENTION] She was cracking me up! Was not gonna give up! Abby shared with Brutus but he didnt like it. Too much work for him I guess...lol His strawberries have to be cut into little peices or he doesnt eat them! Ughhh spoiled bullies

I usually throw baby carrots or frozen green beans on the pups food since they usually act like I never feed them. I measure out their fromm food exactly for every meal so I use the veggies as filler for them. Once in awhile I use them as treats, they especially like bananas... don't care much more celery (but will eat it if the they think the other one will get it). I usually use string cheese (reduced fat) as training treats because they go crazy for it. But I'm not too worried about their weight since both seem to get plenty of exercise.

Gracie eats everything Cooper gets [MENTION=4292]Cooper11[/MENTION] is her personal shopper :D
