Anubis, My Weird Dog.

So I have 2 adorable (but bratty) chihuahuas. The Female, Kiya, LOVES vegetables. When she sees you cutting up lettuce in the kitchen ... she goes absolutely nutty! She'll jump at me trying to knock the lettuce out of my hand...and whine, and beg and stand up with her paws against my leg. She acts like it's a T-Bone steak. The only thing she loves more than lettuce is brussel sprouts.

Anubis on the other hand, HATES vegetables. Lettuce, carrots, corn ... etc. But LOVES meat! Which is probably why Anubis is quite a bit chunkier than Kiya.

Yesterday, was my best friends birthday. So for breakfast, I made her sausage, hasbrowns, vegetable omelette (ok..it was more of a scramble because I can never flip that bloody thing properly) and tea. I thought I would try an experiment with Anubis. He likes eggs, and cheese. So I gave him a piece of egg scramble that had cheese on it...and a little piece of asparagus in the middle. (hee hee) He grabbed that out of my hand and straight into his mouth. He seemed to enjoy the egg...until he found the piece of asparagus. You know how baby's use their tongue to spit out things when they don't like something?? That was Anubis. blech, blech, blech. He looked so disgusted. I got that look from him...Maaaaaaaahmm....how could you do that to me??? A vegetable??? Do I look like a vegetarian to you???

I guess my experiment failed.

At least he will eat chunks of tomato. But only after a few licks, which remind him that a tomato is actually a fruit ... not a vegetable.

I guess it's back to the drawing board. I WILL get him to eat his veggies! I just need to find a better trick.
