I know he will get use to it and soon he wont be begging for anything, but I know it is going to be hard!
I cleaned his toy box out, I found a couple bully sticks, threw those things out and I was able to return the Texas Toothpicks! Bad news those things are!
Gracie doesn't eat dry food? |
No. From the time she was a puppy she would not eat kibble. That started me on a journey into the pet food industry. It is also how I found this site. I was so desperate to find something that she would eat. I cooked for her for a while and soon found she does not like grains at all. So I started trying grain free kibble but she still would not eat them. I started her on Stella and Chew's freeze dried but I found that the frozen is much lower in protein and fat. She eats better than any dog in our family ever has! I do let her have 12" regular sized bully sticks though. Only the ones from Best Bully. Some of the companies that sell those things do not handle the product properly and those can make a dog sick. I get Gracie the big ones because they are too big for her to bite a piece off. She can only soften the ends. Gross. But it's the only thing I know of to satisfy her urge to chew. They are very lean and contain no fat but being a meat product they of course do have protein. She doesn't chew all the time. Maybe once every day or two she gets the urge to chew. If she does not have those sticks she will find something really harmful to chew on. She used to steal things from the strangest places to chew on. Now she is happy with her stinky stick.
