Fresh Veggies

[Bizzymammabee]

Does your bully like veggies? If so what are their favorites? Are there any that should be avoided?

Many members give veggies as treats..... some I've read are green beans, carrots. Other members will be along to give you some tips

She seems to enjoy broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, zucchini. Frozen seems to make her happy, she gets a toy and something to eat. I offered her some apple but she doesn't seem to like that. It's weird because I had offered her room temp carrot sticks and she refused them.

The cold from the frozen veggies may feel good on her teeth

Maybe the frozen veggies soothe her puppy teeth and that's why she loves em'?

I don't know of veggies/fruits they can't have (in small amounts) besides apple pits, raisins, and onions.

I stand corrected!!

No grapes or raisins
No garlic or onions
No sugary food (they can get diabetes)
No fatty food

I stand corrected!!

So I'm poisoning my dog at every meal by feeding him raw diet, according to that article...(brought to you by Iams)

Anyway tomatoes, eggplants, potatoes, grapes, raisins, onions ja avocados should be avoided and sweet fruits in moderation.

Lol, didn't get that far in the slide show!! That's a bit cheeky of them.

Off to make Poppy and Bunk a cappuccino....

As far as raw fruits and veggies go, anything other than the things listed already to avoid are great. I get fresh fruits and veggies, chop them up and freeze them in a large freezer zip-loc for treats for Samson and loves them. The bag in my freezer now currently contains blueberries, pineapple, apple, celery, carrots, green beans, and broccoli. I usually give him a piece or 2 every time we come in from a walk or as a treat mid day if seems hungry and its not dinner time yet. I also give him no grain dog treats from time to time but the fruits and veggies actually end up being way cheaper than the treats and they're healthy. Plus, I like to think that it's a nice break from those top shelf, high protein dog foods we all feed our bullies.

Franks favorites: (either fresh or frozen) green beans, peas, carrots, blueberries, apple (no skin), bell peppers. He loves standing under me when I am chopping carrots or bell peppers because he knows he will make out like a bandit!

I haven't found anything that Rook will not eat (fruits/veggies or otherwise). He loves his frozen green beans and apple chunks. He also LOVES lettuce. He pretty much demands his own little salad whenever we are preparing one with our dinner. He will wake from a dead sleep if he hears a leaf pulled from a head of lettuce.

That just gave me such a cute visual.

You know I think these dogs are eating way better and healthier than we are.
