ha ha, funny story about Runner's first drumstick

[Kfamr]

Did you leave the drumstick out since yesterday?

[ashleycat]

no, just late last night. It was in the fridge during the day. it started off frozen

Whew. Scared me for a bit.

Some dogs are picky about eating frozen meat. Mine would not touch it frozen at first.

Just offer it to her for every meal, she will probably eventually eat it. After about 2 days of offering it, if she doesn't accept it, toss it.

That's funny! Saving it for later, the way i did with my halloween candy as a kid. (too good for right now.)

Well I got her a fresh one. I had to lightly fry it to thaw it a lil bit. Not to cook the bones. It fried just enough to get that cooked smell. She ate some of it. Almost half of it. I gave it to her in the kitchen and she kept taking it to the living room. So I took her outside and put it on the patio, and she took it to the grass lol and laid down to eat it. Hopefully she will eat it totally raw, instead of the lightly fried lol

[ashleycat]

I tried again, I fried a lil bit to get that smell of it. And she only tried to eat the cooked part. but there wasn't much of it cooked so she gave up trying to eat it.

Does raw chicken have any flavor? Any other tips that might make it more appealing?

I would keep offering to her, but if she doesn't eat it by tomorrow night, try a different meat. Beef, lamb, and pork are the most tempting for Mandy, my picky eater. They seem to have the most flavor. If you have to try another meat, I'd pick one of those.
