I eat it unless one of the girls had it in their mouth then spit it out. Then I toss it.

OH... I THOUGHT YOU SAID WOULD YOU GIVE THEM ANYTHING YOU ARE CHOWING DOWN ON.
I DONT DO THAT BECAUSE I DONT WANT HER TO BEG.

I CAN EAT ANYTHING AND BELLA SITS ON MY LAP ...LIKE ON THE COUCH. WE CAN ALL BE EATING AND SHE DOESNT EVEN LOOK TO SEE WHAT WE HAVE.
I GO INTO THE KITCHEN AND MAKE HER A SNACK ON HER OWN PLATE ..SHE CHOWS DOWN.
I DIDNT MEAN I DIDNT GIVE HER PEOPLE FOOD..I MEANT I WOULD NEVER GIVE HER WHAT I WAS EATING OR IF I DO.. I DONT LET HER KNOW THAT I AM EATING IT TOO. LOL NEUROTIC I KNOW...EVERYONE IS AMAZED THAT SHE NEVER BEGS FOR FOOD WHEN WE ARE EATING!!

The only two people foods Ellie refuses that I can think of are parsley and raspberry jello (ever seen a dog eat jello

). I agree with her on the parsley and she chews on it sometimes, so that goes in the trash. The jello stays in her mouth for a minute and then comes out, so that goes in the trash (she doesn't like raspberry but she liked lime

).

I used to share ice cream cones with her but then I read about the bacteria in dog urine and it posing a very small health risk to humans. I decided since she licks her butt that maybe I shouldn't share quite so often.

Huh? refuse a treat? What is that? Tucker has never turned down anything I've offered him!

ARCHIE · 01-08-2008, 07:42 AM

Buddy refuse anything? I don't think so. He's always ready to share whatever
I have.

I will usually give him a piece of something if I think it is okay for him but I will not pick it up off the floor and eat it if he doesn't. We did share some fundip last night while watching American Gladiators.

Sunnyd · 01-08-2008, 08:24 AM

but that's only because Lucy doesn't turn down food until she's thoroughly tasted it. Meaning it's usually chewed and then she spits it out. BTW, the only thing this happens with is raw veggies. She'll eat carrots but anything else has to have dressing on it.

ace611 · 01-08-2008, 08:36 AM

it all depends on if they touch it or lick it first and if its on the floor....haha

Lou · 01-08-2008, 10:49 AM

Actually my answer is "neither". I give it to one of the other dogs.

Lola_H · 01-08-2008, 07:02 PM

Toss it... Tanner likes to carry it off in his mouth and deposit it 3' away.

Yorkie Mom2 · 01-08-2008, 07:06 PM

It will never happen. My two will chow down on anything... They have never turn anything we are eating down. Never.

Ines3185lyorkie · 01-09-2008, 06:01 PM

Mine's love Kellogs Corn Pops so I usually end up sharing.
