Eating Strange

  • My husband was eating artichokes last night and Jaycee went crazy wanting them. Today we had chicken salad and Jaycee wanted the pickles in the salad. Not really sure she needs either.

  • Nothing wrong with artichokes for them… mine would eat them all the time... Maggii had it down to a science to strip the leaves of the good flesh part.... Not all of mine ever figured out how to strip the flesh off... but they would try

  • Thank you Pat for telling me that is is ok to eat artichokes. I was not sure and I do not care for them but husband loves them so looks like Jaycee will get her fill. What about the pickles is that normal none of dogs have ever ate pickles.

    LOL… I don't like them either... but Ted loves them .... ggggg... I don't think that pickles would be a problem.... I find that most dogs/Basenjis like root veggies.. and pickles come from a root veggie...

    Correction below...LOL... thanks agilebasenji!!!!

    Uhm, Pat, I'm pretty sure pickles are made from cucumbers and cuc's are from the flower of the plant (making it a fruit to biologists, but it's a veggie to nutritionists). Of course I don't care for pickles (and cuc's don't like me too much), so I could be wrong.

    Opps…. you are totally correct... LOL....

    Wonderful news! Topper gets 4-5 pills twice a day and he too is very suspicious. I alternate things, but a tiny bit of cream cheese with a couple of pills in it, dunked in left-over pot roast gravy, is the best I have found. When all else fails, I dunk the pills in a bite of vanilla ice cream. Keep up the great work with Tayda!

    Re the thowing up, try a couple of dry dog biskets. My boy used to throw up in the am, until we gave him one before bed.
