    Thank you Acroyali, do you have a recipe?

    Is there any canned Tripe that does not contain carageenan? I like to add some to my 14 month old Lab’s Acana.

    I have 2 Labs and they both get 1/2 tablespoon organic apple cider vinegar with the “mother” at each meal mixed with their food. This is not only good for UT’s but will help with keeping ticks and fleas away. Also, consider seeing a holistic vet.

    Woe, this guy is going to send me to the county home for nutty dog parents!! This morning he turned his nose up to the food the minute I put it down. I bought a can of Honest Kitchen Bone Broth and that kept him interested for a few days. We have had 9 Labs and never had a picky fussy one, they have all had the “piggy gene” but not this guy. I have contacted my vet and will wait and see what she suggests. He is otherwise fully of energy, playful, happy, poops are good and just about the best 11 month old you could ask for. It’s just frustrating.

    Dear Crazy4Cats,

    I went to where I buy my dog food. It is a small family owned store where the owner knows a tremendous amount. I told her about this crazy guy’s newest silliness and she told me it is not so unusual that a dog does not want to eat out of the bowl. She said to try an old cookie sheet and see if he will be good with that so I’m planning on doing that for his dinner, might be a bit cleaner than him eating from the crate tray. It’s just so unusual for a Lab to be fussy about food. I may try the Pet Plate if all else fails.

    Has anybody else tried the Pet Plate? I have a 11 month old male Labrador Retriever who eats his food only if I dump it on the tray of his crate.

    I just went through this with my almost 11 month of lab. The whole thing came about suddenly and one day eating everything and the next picky. I did everything you should not do, added can food, sweet potato and honest kitchen proper toppers. Nothing worked so I called the breeder. She told me to put him in his crate, leave him for 15 min and then take away what he didn’t finish. I have another lab, 7 years old, and she told me to feed her right next to crate…VOILA, he is eating perfectly again with no additions to his food except a probiotic. It is a bit like dealing with a very stubborn toddler.
