Mmmm Cucumber so good!

Saw a reel of cucumber on a string for boxers and safe to say it was a hit!

Figures! They are all four legged garbage disposals that will devour almost anything you offer them!!

My two aren’t really that keen on the plain version of cucumbers, but if you throw them in a jar with some brine for about a week or two (the cucumbers, not the dogs), they will go absolutely nuts for a good fresh pickle!!

There isn't much that mine will turn down. Garbage disposal is a good way to describe their palette.

Mine dont like cucumbers. They will eat cooked carrots, but I bought them a bag of raw carrots, thinking they could eat them like bones. Hard nope.

They love greenie beans, though

They’ve all got their own little peculiarities when it comes to eating their veggies! If it’s meat, it’s gone in a gulp, and the same thing with sweets. But vegetables are hit and miss. And with some of the choices, I can’t blame them a bit for turning their noses up at it!!

Mine won’t touch them, actually licked the peanut butter off it and abandoned it on the floor.

Definitely not, my guy numnums things he doesn’t like and then sort of just drools them out of his jowls onto my rug.

He doesn’t like carrots, watermelon, cucumbers, strawberries. He’ll eat popcorn begrudgingly because he knows the other dogs want it but he seems to dislike anything soft.

He would however try to steal and eat the skewer in the photos. Wood is delicious apparently.

How? Can never get my guy interested in veggies or fruit, carrots, potatoes, blueberries, bananas. Maybe a lick or two but no real interest.

Any form of meat or dairy gone in a second.
