Was Worried

[jennyjoan]

Was worried sick re Maxie - hasn't been eating greatly - you know not one meal a day so on.

Anyway I couldn't resist it - I had cooked a whole chicken last night and put loads of chicken on a little dish in the living room and he ate it and I put more out and he ate it too. He'll probably *** his knicks but so what I'll just clean it up.

Wherever he was before (living) - he is sorta nervous of food and people around his food.

I felt dead happy knowing he had something in his wee stomach and he seemed to be happy too.

I give my dogs what they like to eat provided its not bad for them. Its difficult when a dog has bad memories around food.

I bought that vitamin stuff re his itching but when I found out it was liquidy - I know Maxie's stomach couldn't take it I wouldn't give it to him.

Now he has some chicken in him for tonight I am happy.

I remember going to vets re Harvey some 12 years ago and Harvey was a bad eater and I always remembered her word "give him anything, - I couldn't believe it - fish, chicken , prawns, liver anything that will make him eat.

But dopey me hearing all that (harvey) didn't I boil that lot and then he became over active. That's how I know this wee critter is not a great eater.

I can't return the vitamin stuff back (guess it is medication) but when I get round to it I will sort of "rub it into side). But I am going to give him what he wants.

The funny thing this fresh chicken was also in another dish but he wouldn't touch. That's a man for ye LOL

Your are correct Woofie - has had very many memories of food wherever he has been before. God he is a gorgeous dog now - I have been asked to enter him into a competition - a beautiful dog now compare to the skinny pink thing I undertook.
