Yes, Logan actually ate and enjoyed a Frosty Paws frozen treat! I've been offering these for about a week with no luck. Logan and his brother (Rudy) LOVE these! Logan finally didn't turn his nose up this time. Still no luck with actual dog food, but we'll get there.
I belong to two Yahoo Groups related to canine bone cancer, and I've seen posts on both of them about dogs that don't go back to dog food until after their chemo treatments are totally over. The chemo meds actually modify the way the food tastes. So, we might just have to stay stocked up on other things for a while.
So....still chugging along.....

Hi Stephanie:
ReplyDeleteOur dane dozer went off of his food with chemo also. We started by going to anything, meat baby food, american cheese (also good for giving pills), liver, chicken, cat food, and also grated parmesan cheese sprinkled on meals. Vanilla ice cream has been his faverate.
As far as dog food goes we found a brand called Merric and if I had to eat dog food it would be this one. Keep trying sometimes our kitchen looked like a recycle center with all of the cans we had open. Our goal was to have him eat not what he ate.

Thanks TwoGreatDane!
ReplyDeleteIt's so funny you say that about your kitchen! Ours looks like a tornado did some major damage every time we try to feed Logan! It takes me forever to clean it up. Things seem to be looking up day by day for him. Thanks for stopping by our blog. See you on Yahoo Groups!
