| I can never get my two Yorkies to eat carrots , now they love peas but thats about it, they like pineapple too. Now my Boxer loved to get ahold of a whole carrot she would take little bites off and spit them every where as fast as she could, never ever eating them just spiting them. we would give her one and sit back and crack up laughing, it was so funny to watch we never did know why she did that. |

My Little Man! Donating Member | Ah Brooke I know how you feel. Maxi would be just like Tatum when I would give him chicken with carrots. I started to hand feed him so that way I can control how fast he was eating. I also would say eat slow. After a while I switched back to giving him chicken and carrots on the plate. To my surprise he started eating slower! You know once they get into their habits they always demand. For example, Maxi gets his special treat every day at 5 pm now he demand it even after he gets one. He stands on my lap and stares at me then looks at the kitchen.

| CeCe gets going with this squeaky little bark that sounds like ,well, sneakers on a basketball court....every time she hears me chopping something on the cutting board!! She thinks it's vegggies or apples for them! They both love their veggies and pick them out from the rest of the food I mix them in! When they get their fruit snacks, they eat them with such gusto...so funny to watch! If only our skin-kids loved their veggies like that,right??!! It must be so difficult saying "no" to that adorable little face!!!!

| How can you resist that little face?! I got the same problem with my 2. They go ga ga over veggies! I use them for treats when we do tricks and they can't do their tricks fast enough. It is so funny, they go through the whole routine of their tricks even before I ask them. I also put them in their food. But I usually smash or grind up the veggies along with their kibble. Maggie is a little sneaky oinker...she has picked the kibble clean of the other stuff and spit the kibble out on the floor! After she has eaten all of the other stuff, if she is still hungry, she will eat the kibble or Hot Rod will. I have had to pick her up so he can eat! You would think she hasn't eaten in days! lol.

| veggie yorkie momma too bailee and chewy both love vegetables and fruit. veggies even more than fruit. i have pics of bailee eating raw pumpkin at only a few mos. old. i was carving it in the floor and he stole some and got caught. lol. at thanksgiving this year, i was making homemade dressing, and chopping celery and a bite or two hit the floor, and like the little hoovers that they are, they ate it and loved it!! they like raw squash, any vegetables really. and mine scarf food too, bailee is bad for that, he wont chew up his food either, i had to get even smaller kibbles in his food, b/c where he doesn't chew it up, he would throw up too and now he doesnt. if u give your yorkie veggies, just cut them up really small. |

| uh, you are so NOT alone! We have three pigs in our house! Piglet is what I call Wrigley anyway! We mixed green beans in with their dry food. We buy the french cut and I mash and mix them together, they LOVE them! They love carrots too, but Camden doesn't seem to digest those very well! I've posted this before, but this is a pic of Wrigley and Camden standing in the kitchen staring us down wanting more food, Camden is even falling asleep waiting! Wrigley whines and cries like Tatum does too! You just have to love them!

| I think you're right. My Lexie, who's already a teapot, pouts and whines for her treats. She'll plant herself by the pantry door where her goodies are kept and whine until she's sprawled out on the floor huffing and puffing, literally throwing a tantrum like a child. Dh and I had been giving in at first because we thought it was so funny and cute but. . .she's already 16 lbs! Standing second to food for Lex are her toys, so I started distracting her from with extra, vigorous playtime. And this has worked. But she had a relapse the other night at bedtime. All nights were out, daddy, mommy, Glory, and Molly tucked in bed. Where's Lexie. . .downstairs in the dark in the kitchen sitting by the table where a little cookie was left!

| My Dexter is a 5lb PIG! He will eat and eat and eat until he throws up if I let him. Not his dog food though, oh no. He does not discriminate either. He will eat pickles. Seriously last night I was giving them little pieces of veggies from the salad I was making, some red pepper pieces, cucumber, mushrooms and Dex will eat them all, Fletch does not like mushrooms or cucumbers but he loved the red pepper. Whenever anyone is in the kitchen Dex is right there waiting for something to fall. He whines, jumps on my leg to be fed something. The worst of all is that I don't feed them people food all that often at all, so I have no idea where this expecting it comes from! You'll have to teach Tatum a word that she'll know that means to stop or go somewhere else. If I say "Kitchen" to my boys they both go to their bed in the kitchen away from the food where they cannot beg on me. Its helps me a lot!
