WARMING!!!!! I apoligize for leaving that out!! I totally forgot that our "Miss Prissy Paws" expects her "meats" to be warmed!! I am so happy to hear your baby is eating a little! Good job!!

My Gucci is the same way. Lately she only eats if the food is warm first.

Oh my goodness....I too have forgotten the one "trick" that works wonders. And, that would be warming the food. It hightens the scent and dogs go nuts.

I warm Schatzie's food every am and pm....It makes sense really, it's not like us humans eat all our food cold right??

I am so glad to hear that Clemantine is eating...That is such great news!!

Do you heat it in the microwave? How many seconds?

fasteddie · 02-24-2005, 09:52 PM

Heat the food to be warm, but not hot to the touch. Usually 10-15 seconds is enough, depends on the wattage of your microwave of course.

Thats so good to hear! I'm picking my pup up in 2 days! I'll keep that in mind if I bring him home and he doesn't want to eat.
