    Victoria Secret panties are also a big favorite.  Must be something about smell…Zoe love to chew out crotch area.  No joke, this dog (the field setter) has literally ruined several hundred dollars worth of panties throughout the years…maybe this should go under behavioral training section.  Anyway,  I was thinking about going negative on this one and setting up the big bait and switch type tactic…pepper…mousetraps…thumbtacks…something!  Well, I decided the best approach was to just let it go as far as tactics and let prevention be the number cure and told my wife and daughter STOP LEAVING THE PANTIES ON THE DARN FLOOR!!!

    Ruby gets Chicken Soup Puppy with a little bit of Eagle Pack Holistic Chicken mixed in.  Couple times a week she gets the Chicken Soup Puppy canned mixed in, too.  These are the only two dog foods she's ever eaten and they're working well so we'll stick with 'em. Additionally, she gets carrots, lettuce, green beans, yogurt, tomato, ;peanut butter in her kong, and cottage cheese and her RMB's.  Gotta give her a little variety. [;)]  Apple chunks are her favorite training treat right now.  With the exception of her training treats, RMB's and kongs, everything goes in her bowl; no begging allowed.

    Reese is a (1-year old) Lab and will eat anything -- edible or not.  After months of testing, she's now on a mix of half Innova Large Breed and half Medi-cal High Fibre due to digestion issues.
     
    Therefore, we've tried to keep Riley (4 mos. old Lab/Boxer) on the same....a bit of the High Fibre to firm up her stool and the Innova Puppy.  She doesn't seem to know any better and does whatever Reese does.  [:D]
     
    On the side....carrots, pumpkin, pieces of orange or apple always seem to go over well.  And, cheese....that's how they take any medication -- unfortunately Reese has to take Gravol before any car trips.  [:'(]
     
    I have been looking into the pros and cons of also adding raw egg and yogurt to their diet.  And, perhaps cooked liver...  any comments?

    Max would probably eat just about anything, except for Nutro Large Breed Puppy formula. He never liked it, but he does try to scarf food off the floor in stores, and he will scarf the junky stuff like Pedigree. He liked Canidae way better than the Nutro, but right now he eats Innova Evo, which he also seems to like.
    Millie would also probably eat whatever food she got, but she eats Natural Balance right now. I'm not sure which flavor though.

    My Winston will eat almost anything - but he is currently eating a mixture of Artemis Fresh Mix Small Breed Puppy kibble, Cloud Star Holistic kibble and Nutura Lamb and Rice Puppy Formula kibble as his main meals.  He will occaisionally get people food, and he always gets raw baby carrots as treats.

    In his Kong, he gets yogurt, the kong canned peanut butter stuff, apples, bananas and as special treats he gets dehydrated meats and salmon.
