Fruits, Veggies, Cheerios? Gross! - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Princess10 · 06-20-2011, 02:01 PM

I think Princess has found her long, lost family on this thread!
When I switched her food I added green beans, came back in the room & every bean was flung on the floor all around her bowl. She dislikes vegs, fruits, eggs, rice,crunchy/dry anything, liver. I think she reads YT & boycotts whatever is recommended here.

She seems to have 4 "food groups": meat (human "grade"), dairy, sweet potato "fries", & her junk treats...she eats beggin' strips & purina filet mignon primarily.

I cut them into microscopic pieces to minimize the damage. I've tried everything, she's impossible! She wont even eat green dental chews, just buries them. If something falls on the floor she looks up at us like "umm, you ARE going to pick that up, aren't you!?"

mine love fruits and veggies

My two will take your hand off for a frozen green bean and they love carrots,watermelon,apples, blueberries and most any safe veggie or fruit. The only thing they will not touch is spinach.

Tink can't have meats due to her unresolved LS, so I try to offer all of them the same thing so she doesn't go nuts on me!

I was giving them each a cooked long spaghetti noodle the other night and somebody tried to eat my finger! Lol! Not a bite, but just kind of grabbed it so they could manuver it and get it to where they could really chew it up. That was a very strange sensation! I think it was Tink or Sapphire... I'll have to watch those two!

Sasha will eat anything and everything that you put in front of her. She gets a "big treat" every night before bed time and she highly looks forward to it. Every night it's something different to. It doesn't matter if it's a dog biscuit, dental chew, freeze-dried treat or sweet potato stick....she will eat it. As far as fruits and veggies go, it's the same for them. If you offer it to her, she will eat it. Carrots are her absolute favorite veggies. Apples and bananas are her favorite fruits and of course we can't forget about the cheese. Whenever the cheese comes out of the fridge, she knows and you can't put it away until she gets a small piece.

We recently started using frozen organic peas for training treats.. All three of mine go crazy nutzo over them, lol. Also like using Charlie Bear treats, they love those too.

Haha! I used to use Charlie bear treats years ago... think I bought a case or two.

Do you feed them the peas frozen or thawed?

Allie loves ice!!! And most treats.

Noah doesn't like peanut butter or peanut butter treats. I even tried the banana pb ones and he turned his nose up.

I think about the only thing Tibbe won't eat is orange and just found out he won't eat broccoli stalk. Other than that, he eats most everything I've tried him on. He's a born food lover!

Perrella · 06-29-2011, 03:05 AM

Nope, not alone. Zhoie won't any fruits or veggies and I've tried them all.
I'll have to try cucumber, that's one I haven't tried yet

She eats her food and she her Itty Bitty Dog Biscuits, but that's it.
