What crazy things do your dogs eat??

[Karen]

Yup - some Pet Talkers thought I was crazy when I asked if their dog wanted my watermelon rind at the dog park. Many had never even heard of dogs liking them ... and it was about 50/50. Some dogs feigned interest until the realized what it was then left it on the floor, others just wolfed them down like they were meat! A good example pair - Cinder and Smokey. Smokey scarfed his down, Cinder just gave hers a cursory nibble and set it down.

[Cinder & Smoke]

When I asked if their dog wanted my watermelon rind at the dog park.

Smokey scarfed his down,
Cinder just gave hers a cursory nibble and set it down.

Smokey's attitude has always been: "Eat IT first, before it eats me; THEN ask questions."

Smoke was the first to endorse Cucumber Skins ... I'd been throwing them in the garbage every
time I sliced one for a salad. Clipp & Clopp thought I was choppin CARROTS - an approved Yummie;
so they were always underfoot. "HERE, I said - Have a Green Carrot!"

Smoke dashed out under the dining room table and spent a minute mouthing the C Skin and
then finally munching it into mush before he gulped it down and ran back for a second try.
Cinder mouthed hers a bit and *PA-Tooie'd* it onto the floor.
Smoke grabbed it and *gulped* it down, then begged for more.
After Smoke inhaled another 4 or 5 skins; Cinder reached out with her paw to ask for another ...
A minute of mouthing and gnawing and she swallowed it ... OK, gimmie more!

I don't think there's ANYthing that I'll eat that they won't.
