I add something else to it ...
Yes, big mistake (one of my many as a first time dog owner), but I took to adding a wee bit of tuna here and there, if I had a can open for the kids' sandwiches, or a bit of shredded chicken breast if some left over from dinner.
He now won't really touch it on its own. Adding hot water doesn't make much of a difference.
In fairness, I do think many dogs start off loving their kibble, but then become bored. It's been the same with any food I've tried with him. I really would prefer to continue using Millie's, as he has long fluffy fur, and it keeps his stools nice and firm. I've tried him on several of the recipes now.
Any thoughts ... continue as I am doing, or go cold turkey with the extra bits? He's almost 9 months old, so I guess he'd eat if hungry enough?
I daresay he'd love a raw diet, but as a single working mother of 3, with 2 pets, I'm just not sure I'd have the time ....
Oh, and I read on here that someone gives their dog's kibble a squirt of salmon oil, both to keep it interesting and to benefit their coat. Where would I buy this (didn't see it at the supermarket), and is it made specifically for dogs?
Many thanks ... as always.
