I always give my dogs fresh veggies as a treat. I have read lots of places that
this is good for them in many ways and nothing at all wrong with it.
Many fruits and veggies are good for their teeth, digestive system and when
used properly are a good treat as well.
I agree with Mare on this

OK Angela ........Just My Thoughts !
And I may get kicked off this group for stating my opinion but hey good men
and women fought for my freedom of speech and I am gonna say what I feel.
First how long have you been breeding Chihuahua's ?
I'll answer that one from my side.....................over 30 YEARS
Probably about your age from the sound of things.
Have you never heard of the value of sweet potatoes in dogs?
Have you never ever tried something like this?
I was only trying to help.
My dogs are in demand all over the United States.
I have a waiting list for my Sporting Beagles.
So before you criticize KNOW where you are coming from or at least do a
little research.

chow recipe.
Mare's Dog Goulash
6-8 chicken thighs
1 Large can p lain pumpkin
2 large sweet potatoes
1 cup brown rice
1 cup oatmeal
1 large can mixed vegetables without the onions
Boil chicken thighs and debone saving the broth
Add the rice to the broth and cook the rice
Microwave the sweet potatoes 12 minutes
Grind the chicken up in a food processor or a blender or chop very fine
Add it to the broth/rice mixture
Add the vegetables drained
Add the sweet potatoes peeled and chopped fine or mashed
Add the oatmeal
Feed as much as they will eat . Probably a half cup per chi.
You can refrigerate the rest.
I do it in zip loc bags so I can just take a serving out and microwave it.
I have never had a dog refuse to eat it !
Good Luck !

I HAVE A LITTER OF CHIHUAHUAS THAT WILL BE 7 WEEKS OLD WEDNESDAY. I
HAVE ALREADY TRIED TO WEAN THEM. I HAVE TRIED MOISTENED PUPPY FOOD AND
ALSO SOFT PUPPY FOOD WITH GRAVY FROM A POUCH. THEY TURN THEIR NOSES
UP AT IT. MY LAST TWO LITTERS DID GREAT AND I HAD NO PROBLEM
WHATSOEVER GETTING THEM TO EAT. BUT THESE TWO BABIES SURE ARE
STUBBORN! DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT ELSE I CAN DO TO GET THESE LITTLE GUYS
TO WANT TO START TO EAT? A NY HELP WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THE
NEW OWNERS UNDERSTAND AND WANT WHAT IS BEST FOR THEM AND KNOW THEY HAVE
TO WAIT UNTIL THEY ARE EATING WELL ON THEIR OWN. I AM GOING TO WAIT
UNTIL THEY ARE 8 WEEKS OLD OR OLDER BEFORE I LET THEM COME AND GET
THEM.
