@tanza Oh yes. I give her 1/3 cup blue buffalo puppy kibble, 1 tbsp wet blue buffalo puppy, 1 tbsp yogurt or cottage cheese, (alternating) and if I se any sign of dandruf or dryness in her fur, I also add in a few drops of olive oil. I have chicken and vegetables every night, and I've been preparing my chicken unseasoned since I got rogue so I can use it for training on occasion, so sometimes if she's being stubborn I'll bury some tiny shreds of chicken in her food to get her to eat, or sometimes I'll do the same thing with some other high value treats. I don't feed her in a crate, but I've moved her bowl into my room so she's lessdistracted at mealtime, and she has a safe place to eat when my niece comes over. Rogue plays nice with my niece outside, but indoors, she's kind of a really big squeeky toy, so we have to watch her constantly. I also, on the rarest occasions, will give her a little tiny pinch of american, or sharp cheddar cheese. That seems to get her really excited. She doesn't get excited about cottage cheese, but american or sharp cheddar? She goes nuts. fagedabodit. And she get chews and kongs in the crate, but never meals. And she doesn't spend much time in there anymore since she's been house trained. She just sleeps in my bed. In fact, she's passed out next to me right now.

What a handsome little guy

He's cute - who are Dad and Mom ?
-
@triggers-dad - Hello, hopefully he was or his sire/dam were DNA tested for Fanconi? If not you should really do this. DNA test is a cheek swab that you do yourself. Cost is a well spent 65.00. Here is the link to order www.ofa.org

He's GORGEOUS! Those wrinkles are perfection!
-
I'm with Tanza on this - $65 is nothing to pay for peace of mind. Everyone should get their pups tested. It's so easy.
Best, of course, is if the breeder has shown you test certificates of the parents but if not, and to be sure, go to the OFA website Tanza has given you, send for the test kit and follow the simple instructions !
-
His whole bloodline is tested.
-
Yes, it is ! Dad is Anza Pretty Black Kiah Boy Of Cyrus and Mom is Anza Ti-Calico Girl Of Cyrus. Dam is a carrier (of Fanconi) but sire is clear. She is clear for PRA too. I had Anza Trigger Kilekas erroneously in the database as a bitch ! She/he has undergone immediate sex-change surgery !
I'm glad you posted the photo and sent me digging cos I'd never have noticed my mistake. Any chance you know the names of the siblings !
