Does anyone know if it is harmful giving my 4 year old Griffon, Bobbie, baby food? As I have posted in previous threads, her eating habits do not include vegetables of any kind and in any form. We have tried EVERYTHING including the great ideas you provided in your replies.

She considers eating dog food as a favour to me and that, once in a while. I am really concerned about her not eating any vegies.

These past 3 days, I have given her 3 tbsp per day of Nestles Beef & Vegetable baby food which she seems to like, as a vegetable supplement. She seems to like at... at least for now. Funny how she does not like meat and vegies in food processor, but she will eat the jar stuff. I was concerned about her having diarrhea but she is fine.

If you have any info about dogs not eating baby food, pls advise. Thanks for your help :)

As long as it's not her main diet, I don't see a problem. :) She's not getting as mch nutrients as she would from fresh, uncooked veggies, but atleast she is getting something. :)

Fionapap- I use the baby food veggies with puppies to learn to eat veggies. I do agree raw would be better, but its better than not eating the veggies at all. I use to use Gerber.
