[schatzie]

I will have to be honest in saying that yes, I give "people" food to Schatzie. It mainly depends on what we eat for dinner. If it's spicy then no way Jose, but let's say it's roasted turkey (had that last night) and yes, she got a smidgen of turkey meat. (only about the size of my finger tip).

If I make salads she gets a shred of carrot

If I eat a banana, she gets a bit of that.

So, yeah, it's pretty much based on what I eat. However her Bil Jac is her mainstay food mixed with Little Ceasers wet, the people food we give her is mainly for a treat and affection.

Schatzie has learned to sit right next to me while I eat and not "beg" or "stare me down waiting for a morsel", or whatnot. I thought i needed to train her this if we ever "hide her in a resturant" or go to friends house for dinner, I wanted her to be able to sit next to me by my side and be a good little girl.. She is awesome about that. So, usually when I get to my very last little bite I give it to her. She seems to know that so I think that is why she doesn't panic and beg for food from us, who knows.

I know they say that most dog foods have enough vitamins and such to keep a dog healthy, and they advise that our pets never need any human food. Well, i just have a hard time following their advise.
