| Fun way to eat dry food! Have a picky eater at home? Try a new "game" with your little one! My Beanie hates dry dog food - she refuses to eat it "plain" - but needs to crunch on something for the sake of her teeth!! One day I started rolling her kibbles down the hallway (I also use the kitchen floor) to see if that would interest her. It worked! She loves chasing the kibble, cathing it, and then eating it! She's so proud that she's caught her prey!!! After throwing around 20 kibbles, she then eats the rest in her bowl. I guess chasing kibbles is a good "warm up" for her. (silly baby) Hey, whatever works!

| Gracie likes to play with them too. The only ones she will eat belong to the cats!

| Reagan used to do that too, probably still would I just haven't tried it in a while. When she was a puppy though she would stand at one end of the kitchen with one paw up in the air(I don't know, don't ask) ready to go. Then when you slid it she would hop around to catch or pounce on it. Its was so cute.

I think my Beanie is more cat than dog. Her favorite toy is a cat toy! (long plastic stick with feathers on the end...she goes nuts!) When the cat toy comes out Jac rolls his eyes and is thinking "Oh, please...I'm not amused."

| I'll put their food in a ziplock bag & leave the bag open. I take the little clip off & watch them so they don't eat the bag, but they have never tried to. They take turns grabbing it & running throught the house. What spill out they run & gobble it up before I can get it. They love that game & between the 2 of them they get their kibbles in for the day. |
