Re: [doodle] What is your dog's diet ??

I assume that doodle is a poodle? sorry, it's me being stupid. I have a poodle cross maltese at home. And he can be the most difficult dog to satisfy. Apparently poodles are really arrogant dogs. The choose what they want to eat, play etc. So, mine chooses his food. I have to mix his kibbles with some of the canned 'My Dog' food. He loves it. One of my friends has the same breed, and her's chooses the flavour of the canned food too!!! She knows if it's salmon or chicken or vegetable flavour. What the trainer told me was never leave the food out for the dog too long. Leave it during the usual meal times for about 20-30 minutes. If the dog doesn't eat it, just take it away. Then the dog would have to wait till the next meal. They eventually will l learn the fact that if they don't eat, they will starve for the rest of the day. It sounds really mean, but we have to let them know that we are the boss, not them! I also strongly suggest that you should give your dog dry kibbles anyhow. YOu can mis it with some other food. It helps to clean their teeth.
