I love this thread too! It's only slightly worrisome ;-)
Buddy had a TERRIBLE stomach the first 2 years so I had to be really careful with food - but he gets SO picky now - he refuses to eat until he makes himself sick! So now I change his dry food every so often and if he hasn't eaten for a day or two, I'll put some shredded cheese on top, or add a bit of wet food (we're trying the Tiki brand right now) --
I always try to gradually switch him to the new food, but he picks out all of the new pieces and leaves the old! Lately it hasn't been a problem though, so fingers crossed! We're trying something new right now...
He sleeps in bed with me. Oh! And he doesn't know any kids, so is not great with them (he barks at them as if they were other dogs!). Would never leave him alone with them.
And while I wouldn't leave him alone with a strange dog, I'll leave him at a friends house with a dog he knows for short periods of time. |
