Michelleva Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Last night we discovered that Georgia LOVES watermelon.. my daughter was grabbing a slice out of the fridge and the naughty dog bit the top off, right out her hand.. LOL So after that it was all hers. She acted like it was the best thing ever. I thought it was a strange thing for a dog to like, but I've since discovered other people have dogs who also eat it.. maybe she's not as weird as we thought. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

perfect partners Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 :) Cute photo . Our dogs love watermelon! and pears, apples,bananas,feijoas,oranges,strawberries, tomatoes....... Mine too - I could use it as training treats if it wasn't so messy, and all the other fruit too. My Newf will appear in the room if I peel a banana and gets the ripe strawberries in the garden before me most times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trifecta Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 In Traditional Chinese Medecine watermelon is a cooling food (pretty obvious really :laugh:), but my point is, maybe she is a 'hot' dog? Dogs do seem to know which foods they should seek out, afterall. We feed raw here & have done for 24 years.... like persephone's dogs ours eat all sorts of fruit & vegetables & will even steal the strawberries from the runners!

persephone Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 :) Glad ours don't eat pumpkin! I have a good crop this year ...so 'only' have to worry about the sheep and goat getting in & taking big chunks out of each one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pie Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Mine eats watermelon - I use it as treats at agility trials to keep her hydrated :) She eats basically any fruit & veg though really! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuffles Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Mine eat watermelon (will even eat the skin if I let them) but their absolute favourite fruit is apple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staffyluv Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Same Ziggy will eat anything.. He steals all the tomatoes off the vines and all the strawberries off the plants In the pot. He even eats the spinach, parsley and sage herbs that I have growing in pots... He loves all fruit and veg that we have offered him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pie Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Yep I gave up on growing cherry tomatoes and strawberries because they would get stolen by the dogs :laugh: They even pulled the limes off the lime tree (think the ball crazy one thought they were balls lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Mine eat watermelon (will even eat the skin if I let them) but their absolute favourite fruit is apple. Yep, mine eat the fruit if they get it but mostly I cut the skin off leaving a generous amount of flesh for them, they eat it all, skin too.

Michelleva Posted May 26, 2012 Author Share Posted May 26, 2012 Wow, so many dogs are good with their fruit and vege.. Georgia also likes cucumber, but is not keen on tomato. Raw carrot is her absolute favourite. I was just surprised that she liked something sweet, but its obviously not that unusual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, Kenny's favs were bananas & canteloupe, I think it's the sweet smell that attracts them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Crazy Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 My 2 eat everything just about. Every fruit except passionfruit. All veg except brussels & cabbage which is probably a good thing. Toxic gas I would imagine & my girl doesn't need any help in that area LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PuddleDuck Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Ours eat basically all fruit and veg. Doof ate half a lemon one cos Bear sniffed it-the look on his face was priceless! We don't call him doofus for nothing :laugh: I find the funniest one is cherry tomatoes. Invariably they forget what they are and if we give it to them whole they walk around with it in their mouth for about half an hour going 'well it came from the kitchen so it must be people food and I can't put it down because *insert other dogs name* will steal it but wtf do I do with it'. Then one of them accidentally chomps it and suddenly everyone remembers the food is on the inside. It'd probably take them about 2 weeks to work out eggs still in their shells :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erny Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 like persephone's dogs ours eat all sorts of fruit & vegetables & will even steal the strawberries from the runners! Strawberries are meant to be good teeth whiteners :). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
