    Pupcorn?

    For the life of me, I can't remember where I read about a low calorie dog treat called Pupcorn. I saw a huge jar of it at Petsmart the other day, and stood there, in a trance () trying to psych myself into remembering who told me or what I read.

    Anyway, I thought it'd be a good alternate to Logan's low calorie dog biscuits, especially if she howls and talks for 'more, more, more'

    I bought the cheese ones. They look like missshapen Cheetos. Does anyone else use them. Was it on PT that I read about it?



    I've been Boooo'd!

    I've tried it before and Harley hated it. He wouldn't even touch the stuff, which is odd because he will eat anything.... entire jar wasted, lol. Later I found out that he won't eat popcorn either. I guess he just doesn't like the consistancy.

    by the way, I was looking at your siggy and the funny thing is, if my daughter had been a boy, I was going to name her logan cody.

    I had bought it a couple of years ago for my two. They liked it at first, but when I bought a 2nd jar, they decided they didn't like it anymore. It took forever for them to finish off the 2nd jar, and I haven't bought any since. It really doesn't look very appetizing - or taste it either. I took a little nibble just to see how they tasted - it was like biting into a piece of styrofoam!!!

    Mine won't touch it.

    But then, they eat grain free all the time, and won't touch dog food w/ any sort of grains in it.

    I would like to try that, my dogs LOVE popcorn. I'm guilty of giving them a few pieces when I eat popcorn myself.

    It's seriously NOTHING like real popcorn, but you never know, they might like it.

    My pups love pupcorn. They get one every night after their last run outside. I love hearing them crunch them! I buy the cheese ones.

    WHAT GOOD TASTE YOU HAVE!!!!
    (Logan is a female named after a PTer named Logan who I adore)

    Ick. The pupcorn is getting stuck in Logan's back teeth. She has a narrow arch so I have to clean her teeth. Yup, it looks like styrofoam but I haven't had the guts to taste it. Surprisingly, she loves it. And she's pretty fussy. Apparently, not fussy enough!!

    They're just like a regular cheese puff and they taste like it too. I haven't seen them in forever nor would I bother paying out the extra money when I could buy a bag of cheese puffs for less.
