answered a question How do I get my dog to eat?

I dog sit a lot of different breeds... A LOT of dogs are "social eaters" and will only eat if you keep them company, lol. I sit a puggle who actually sits on his own dining room chair when the family eats, lol. Another elderly dog has to be Hand Fed her kibble, yes, one bit at a time, sigh. One of the catahoula leopard dogs has her own "song" I sing to encourage her to eat...she had a ton of allergies until the right food was found...now she expects her song during meal times. Yes I know....IT'S ALL ABOUT THE DOG, LOL.

If you are using peanut butter...BEWARE! Some companies are not putting XYLITOL in their peanut butter as a sweetener.. THIS IS DEADLY TO DOGS! Use only a natural peanut butter and make sure there are no additives...DOGS ARE DYING FROM PEANUT BUTTER, it's all over the news stations!

I use chicken or beef broth too...BUT I MAKE SURE IT IS UNSALTED! Especially the elderly dogs need the unsalted broth; Also, I NEVER use the parmesan that comes in the can bec. I saw a special on TV...it has wood cellulose as filler! I use only fresh grated parmesan. Both of those work so well!
