Our pup is a strange one. Today...like most people...we had to do the Easter thing with the family. So Jager tagged along. Always happy to meet new people...she wasn't very lively. Later in the evening we invited a friend over for dinner and as we're sitting there...Jager had been sleeping and just not being a "puppy" Then I called her over and gave her a little scrap of chicken...and buddy...you would have thought that chicken was laced with speed. No sooner did she perk up and become a "puppy" again. So we gave her some rice and cooked chicken as the emergency vet recommended and she loved it (which will bring me to a new question in the next paragraph). Since every where we went was very pollen and dust / dirt oriented...we figured we'd give her a bath to clean her up. After the bath...round two of the speed pill kicked in. Running and jumping and nibbling and just being herself. We're still keeping an eye on her because you never know what could be wrong so...we're just hoping it's an upset stomach and all will be fine very soon.
As far as the chicken and rice. We definately don't want to spoil her with the "people" food. I don't want her to think that she'll get it all the time...but as long as she's "sick" we'll probably give her a little here and there just to keep her eating. What should I do if she starts to only want to eat people food? Just keep out her dog food and know that she will eat when she gets hungry or ???
