This morning I cooked her an egg and she barked at me the entire time I was cooking it. When I put it down for her, she raced over and gobbled it up like she was starving. I had to crush up her kibble into microscopic pieces with a potato masher and tried to mash it all together with the egg but she still managed to eat the egg and leave all of the tiny crumbles of dog food in her bowl. Sigh!
I guess I'll have to try canned dog food to entice her but I don't want her to get diarrhea. She'll just eat around the kibble if I mix it in. |
Aww thank you on your compliment about Halle! I too think that she is beautiful; I really love her straight silky hair.
I'm still waiting to actually see and feel the baby(s) move in her belly, but yes I do feel more confident within the last few days. Feeling the babies move is an awsome experience.
Please be sure to take your camera with you for the xray & get a picture or two if you can to share with us. Three more days; is that on Monday then? I can't wait to see.
Definintely try some canned food for her. I've been giving Halle Wellness canned puppy food and (yes I know it's not the best) Cesars Puppy food in those little tubs. She actually prefers the Cesars; I figure at this point it's better that she is at least eating something. I too try to throw in a little puppy kibble....even have also done the grinding it up.....and yes, Halle will lick all the wet food off then drop the kibble back in the bowl. I sure hope I can get her back on the kibble when she is done with this pregnancy and nursing.
