Have you tasted your dog's food?

• rwbeagles Posted : 12/12/2006 10:33:00 AM used to eat kibble as a kid...maybe that's why dogs and I understand each other so well now?   Paul Newman ate some of his own wet dog food on some talk show...lol...if it's good enough for Paul....?? 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• jennie_c_d Posted : 12/12/2006 11:43:40 AM the little cheapy snausage-type dog treats i do not feed my dog because i tried one once and it tasted like play-doh, They DO! I thought I was the only crazy that thought that[] I'm a vegetarian now, so I don't go around tasting dog treats (unless they're veggie treats, then I do. I always taste the veggie stuff I make for them), but I used to taste them. They're mostly pretty bland. All of the less than great kibbles I've tried were extremely.... cracker like. I haven't tried the premium kibbles, because I've been vegetarian for longer than I've been feeding good food. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• fuzzy_dogs_mom Posted : 12/12/2006 12:23:03 PM Never tried kibble.  But a few years ago I had a dog that had to have dental work done and I was told to give him soft food for a few days.  I picked up a few cans of Pedigree chicken and that stuff smelled so good ... I was thinking I could have heated it up and given it to DH over rice.

• jones Posted : 12/12/2006 7:06:24 PM I've tasted Solid Gold Beef & Barley kibble - it tasted vaguely beef-like, pretty bland. I've also nibbled a bit of one of his dried chicken treats - unsurprisingly it tasted like plain, unsalted chicken. Dogs don't actually taste things as well as we do... they have about 1000-1500 taste buds compared to our 9000-10,000. The more taste buds you have the more complex tastes you can recognize. So dogs don't really distinguish between flavors well... they are more concerned with smell and texture. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Kara Posted : 12/12/2006 7:43:47 PM The kibble, no, I just do not see pleasure in it. I smell it though, and it smells like something I would eat. I am just not that tempted by rice and chicken smashed into little chunks. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• loveukaykay Posted : 12/12/2006 11:21:38 PM Ive tasted the Nutro deserts, all of them, lol... the smell of those things made me way too curious to resist.    I have not tried the Innova yet but am tempted to now.  I did try the Nutro Natural a while back, it was pretty much like nothing.  The EP fish that I feed Minnie I will not taste tho, that smell is enough for me!  Im gonna go taste Innova now.[] 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• BEVOLASVEGAS Posted : 12/13/2006 12:00:48 AM This thread could get very humiliating very quickly.  Can I use the "I didn't inhale" excuse?  I guess not, so here goes.  I have tried the kibble, canned food, and treats.  Would I eat it regularly? Oh no, that stuff was terrible, I couldn't understand why the dogs would eat that stuff.  Then it all clicked, the dogs love to eat cat poo so nasty tasting dog food must be a delicatessen.  Who would have known?   0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Luvntzus Posted : 12/13/2006 2:58:40 AM Seems like I'm in the minority. I haven't ever and wouldn't ever try dog food. Especially the canned. Even thinking about it practically makes me dry heave.[][:'(] It could be the exact same ingredients as beef stew; it's just knowing that it's dog food really freaks me out for some reason. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Bob Schlick Posted : 12/13/2006 3:55:24 PM I never have, but I have always thought Pup-peroni and Beggin' Strips have always smelt delicious! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
