Thanks for the chicken water idea, I will try that too. Yes they are so driven by scent, so I wonder why the food manufacturers do not add more scent to the boring kibble? They do it for human food all the time.

try just the broth water and save the chicken breast for u for chicken salad!

Some do, and it's one of the things that makers of Yorkshire Terrier food do, because Yorkies are known for being finicky eaters. With most dogs, it's not necessary.

Thank you. I feed Canine Caviar and it has not been treated as it is odorless. Most food do have an odor even I can detect, but this one....no. It is not specifically for Yorkies though. The manufacturers suggest adding water, but that was no help. The good thing is, once 'seasoned' he eats it all up fast. :-))
I thought I was a picky eater, but Yorkies win on that score hands down!
It is good we can come on YT and get others' experiences and advice.

Well, I see nothing wrong with adding a little, it give you a lot of bang for the buck, since it smells so strong. I agree, it's great to be able to learn from other's experience, I don't know what I would have done without YT!

It sure does give them an odor they love. I must say the kibble smells so bland to me, I do not blame our babies wanting it spiced up a bit. Any other food additions that help our picky ones? I would like a back up if he gets fed up with the Parm.

Buy some low sodium broths...chicken broth, beef whatever. And sprinkle it onto the kibble - you can be pretty generous since it's broth...this may give the kibble a much more enticing flavor/smell.

Dogs eat first with their noses...so always think of altering the smell to entice.

Thank you. It was also suggested to make it myself and freeze. Easier to buy though as long as the salt content is very low.
A friend gave me some evil smelling Bonito Flakes to sprinkle on the food, any one heard of or used this? Thank you.
