I give mine healthy food but gosh they still get a taste of my breakfast sometimes (a tiny bite of pancake or a frosted flake
) Actually Cherrios are good treats for puppies.
Just give "people" food away from the table. Actually feeding off your plate will encourage begging. We go sit over on our stairs and make them sit or do tricks for their "ration" Also be careful when preparing your dinner if you plan to share. I prefer to cook their food separately because I often cook with onions and garlic and sauces and butter. So if I'm cooking Chicken Parmesan I just cut off a hunk of chicken before I start cooking and bake it in the toaster oven. Then they get plain chicken. Cheese is GREAT for giving medicine -I call it the cheese chaser! Wrap the pill in a small piece of cheese. Then show them a BIG hunk of cheese (big for a Yorkie anyway!) Feed the pill, then follow up immediately with the big hunk. They will be SO excited about the big piece they will swallow that pill! I found if I just gave them the pill+cheese they would run away and go spit it out (but then eat the cheese of course!)
Eggs are good, rice..... green beans... my dogs love food
