| is this too much? I feed jasmin about 4 fresh boiled green beans a day. It doesn't seem to upset her tummy. I add it to her food. This is the only way she will eat her food now. Just making sure I am not over feeding her.

| This sounds good to me. My little Molly is a very finicky eater, but she will eat green beans. She also likes a little raw grated carrot, sweet peppers cucumber that has been peeled, and grated turnip. |

| My two love green beans, it is the only thing they get as a treat and I also add them to their kibble. As long as they agree with your little one, it doesn't hurt and it also does not add very many calories. Jada tends to put on weight so easily and the green beans are all I have found I can treat her with and not pack extra unneeded weight. BTW my pigs eat about a 1lb bag a week

| I feed green beans for snacks (and romaine lettuce!) But if Ziva has too many she throws up yellow foam the next day, cut back on the green beans and she is fine.It was hard to pin down what was causing it. Abby can eat all she wants! |

| The vet actually recommended green beans and carrots as supplements for my boys since they need to lose weight they are down to 1/4 cup 2x a day with a couple baby carrots or green beans thrown in. I think they are slimming down! LOL Dogs LOVE veggies!
