Veggies.....




June 16.  And according to the crazy calendar, it's Fresh Veggies day.  And don't we LOVE fresh veggies?  Well at least Einstein and I do.  The FG has a different procedure for eating veggies - take a carrot for example. The FG has to toss it, lick it, roll on hit, chew it, spit it, and finally eat it.  This holds true for almost all veggies.  There are LOTS of veggies that are good for us dogs - like carrots, celery, sweet potatoes, cucumbers, green beans,  peas and potatoes.  As with anything - we should probably eat veggies in moderation - because too much MIGHT upset our stomachs.  And there are some we should NEVER eat - like onions.  Tomatoes are OK - but the green parts of the plant CAN make us sick.  One source said that asparagus is OK, but too tough to be eaten raw.  Guess they never met the power chewers in THIS house.

And speaking of eating - the FG has a new habit.  He has TOTALLY trained my human. 
 He has started this new thing where he won't eat his supper.  He just stares at it.  Or lies down next to his food bowl.  So of COURSE, the first time he did this, my human tried to feed him by HAND.  So yup - you guessed it - he now will not eat his supper unless she feeds him. And then he eats the WHOLE thing!    He is really good at human training.

Well it's Friday and I understand my human and her mother and her sister have some company arriving this weekend.  They are not staying with us - I think they value their sleep.  But it still looks like we might have to be on good behavior.  We'll see....

Have a good one - and don't forget to eat your veggies!!!
