What's your b's favorite food?

  • @Lenora:

    We just do a third can everytime too. Abbey gets an upset tummy if we overdo it. She does the clean up thing too, wipes her muzzle on the carpet, then sits down to clean her paws. She likes to do the heavy duty paw cleaning at bedtime and gets between each toe and the pads. After that she cleans her tummy.

    :D LOL - That is so funny! I am picturing a Garfield in Abbey. :D

  • Oh Storm and Nik LOVE the canned Merrick's food - buffalo is their favorite! I've found that 1/4 can does the trick over their kibble - it is rich stuff, and can lead to unpleasant odors from the posterior area if they get too much :eek:

    wiping his muzzle with his front paws, then he rubs his face along the sofa bottom, and then further more taking advantage of a blanket to do some face spinning. Does your B's take that much time cleaning up after their meal

    ? - So this is why Stormie races between my legs after he eats and rubs his muzzle on my legs! :rolleyes: :eek: :rolleyes: :D

    FILLET MIGNON….....med rare.

    So Stormie wants to know when Cleo is inviting him over for dinner! ;) :D

  • Lexi LOVES lima beans. It's so odd. And the one food she'll wag her tail for is a yeast roll from Logan's RoadHouse. I don't blame her on that one. They are soooo good! She likes peanutbutter, but peanutbutter ice cream makes her crazy! She'll do anything for it! She refuses to eat Frosty Paws though. She also hates lettuce and will RUN from bananas. One of her favorite breakfasts is a piece of cinnamon raisin toast with butter. She likes the crust. Pretzels make her instantly throw up. She turns her nose up to popcorn. She LOVES to lick my yogurt cup when I'm finished with it. Strawberries on the bottom with nestle crunch is her favorite. :)

    We recently bought some of that brand and we mix it with the kibble, it looks pretty good and the dogs love it. Buffalo was a big hit at our house as well.

    Could you imagine the grumbles coming out of those two together?:D :D :D

    The dogs have had a little Fillet Mignon…...just a little. They do seem to know when we start the grill, some tasty leftovers seem to follow.

    Oh my! That would be a snark fest and a half! :D They'd either be best friends or mortal enemies! :)

  • my B can't eat too much table food as it makes her tummy upset but she tries to eat everything. I haven't seen anything she doesn't like. I thing her favorite thing to eat(besides the usual TP, paper towels/plates and beanie babies) she loves canned tuna and turkey pepperoni.

    I suggest a happy helmet!:D

    We feed the same exact amount! And anything more than 1/4 of a can & the odor can kill us :D :D

    Oh my! That would be a snark fest and a half!

    Oh my C3PO also snarks when he eats!!!! :eek: He sounds like a pig eating slop LOL :D My Topaz is MUCH more refined…licking & chewing very dainty :)

  • jys - so glad I'm not the only who has noticed the unpleasant side effects from Merricks! lol! ;)

    Oh my C3PO also snarks when he eats!!!! He sounds like a pig eating slop LOL My Topaz is MUCH more refined…licking & chewing very dainty

    I think the sounds coming out Nik and Storm's mouths at dinner time would probably make a pig envious! ;) :D :)

    BB- a happy helmet! lmao! :D

    :D LOL - HaHaa! I get the message. I'll go from 1/3 to 1/4 can. Last night, Duke was standing on the sofa playing with me when all of the sudden he . . . POOTED! His own poot scared him. He turned around to see what was there - couldn't find anything, but he did alot of sniffing . . . and looked embarrassed! :D

    I hate one-sided media-attention crap like that. Sure she can sue, and hope they'd rather pay her than take her to court. But the FACT is simple– at this point it is every company, not just theirs that has REPORTED issues. The FACT is that the FDA and independent labs have YET to find any problem EXCEPT with people overfeeding the product in some cases. The FACT is that unless they have proven an issue, they cannot be forced to pull off the shelves. Would I feed anything from China? NO, which is why I spent nearly an hour yesterday picking out the dog treats. But without proof, she is just another frivolous sue-happy person hoping to make a buck.

    This was the answer from The Honest Kitchen, via their Facebook page: Me: _This article came up in a discussion on one of my dog forums: (link) It was pointed out that the Honest Kitchen appears to use a pre-mix, given the list of minerals and additives at the end of your ingredients lists. I know you have a very thorough list on your website about the countries from where you source your ingredients, but I was wondering if you could respond directly to the concerns raised in this article about mineral and additive sources?_ Their answer: Great question! We have an affidavit from our premix supplier that ALL the components are from European and North American Sources with the exception of one, which is from Israel. The components are blended right here in the USA. As with every ingredient in our diets, no part of our premix is derived from or has even been near to, China.

    Plain yogurt may be better for calcium than cheese and is more natural than the probiotics (has a similar effect). Also, I have read that pork can be bad for dogs and should be avoided… I sure hope you can get Barley feeling better soon!

    @basi: Glad he is enjoying his new food. I see Alain has a bitch out of my Cali's sister that was exported to the US. Yes, Eldorado's Zari by Saqqara. He also brought her with him.
