he will just look sadly at it and wander off
Clearly related to mine then
I haven't tried him on any wet food yet. Good to know the Burns might work. And it would be a good back up for nights we don't have left overs. I have tried him with raw veg but he's having none of it. He did like carrots and sweet potato in last week's chicken stew though.
Our greyhound loved cooked veg to the point I would cook extra. (a couple of carrots and potatoes don't cost much) The extra included cooking veg trimmings that would otherwise have gone in the compost heap such as the tops and peels of carrots,
the stalks of cabbage, cauliflower and brocolli, potato peelings. Just put the dog veg in a steamer on top of the veg you're cooking for yourselves. (slice the brocolli stems.cabbage stalks first).
No onions/leeks of course.
He also enjoyed porridge so we always gave him the scrapings from the pan.
We tried many dry foods and the winner was Wainrights large breed
foods, not the beef and rice one, he preferred the duck./chicken and lamb ones (all with rice, no wheat). We fed him twice a day, am and pm, plus occasional bonio dog biscuits , and a daily dentastix at bedtime.
Wainrights is sold in Pets at Home and you can order online and get free home delivery for a large enough order. We found the meat+ rice ones produced a normal stool easy to pick up in a poohbag. . Anything, with wheat produced poohs that couldn't be picked up.
Treats; the meat pickings of (roast) chicken carcases , picked after I'd boiled them up for stock. No bones.
cheese; If you ever need to worm or medicate him, hide pills in a little cube of cheese. It won't even hit the sides as he gobbles it.
