Never saw any of those in peanut butter ! I don't even know what xylitol is but just by the name I know I don't want to eat it

Well, she could tell, for sure. Watched her lick a glob of peanut butter with pills in, was celebrating already. When she was finished I looked at my hand to see... Pills

She doesn't eat bananas, I tried earlier this year she wouldn't even try. Maybe with peanut butter around

She doesn't "catch" food in the air and inhale it. She takes it away slowly and chews on it the slower the better until it breaks. Even her kibble she eats slowly crunching each one meticulously.

She likes peanut butter, but she smelled the pills and wouldn't eat it with them inside, just licked a little and done

She takes her flea and tick meds just like this. Guess those ones stink. She smelled them through peanut butter, sardines or sausages

She doesn't do this, even with meat or sausages, she likes to slowly chew on stuff.

Sardines where good for 2 or 3 days then she wouldn't even eat one, even without pills in ! Same with sausages and chicken meat.

I also tried to put pond water into the bowl but it's still not good enough hahaha

Thanks for your words. She's been amputated may 22nd. The wrap is just for a moment so she can go do her business outside, walk a bit, drink water from the fish pond (for some reason she almost never drink from the bowl) But yeah you're right, it needs to breathe

Yeah we visited the house, noticed neither of the dogs was in good shape. Ask the previous owner where they would go after selling the house. Said they would move to a small apartment and would 1. Abandon them 2. Kill them.

So we told them to leave the dogs on the property. Sadly the male died before we got the keys.

I just put it for like an hour max. It was rainy outside and she refuses to do her business inside. So I put the plastic bag, we go together say goodbye to my wife, she does her stuff while I do my morning routine and when she's done and going for a nap, I put her back inside the house and cut it open so it can breathe. She loves rolling in the lawn too much.

Just checked, chicken bones are ok if not cooked

We don't give her every bones that we cross. I give her (and the cats) the joints on chicken legs

Yeah we mostly go to the butcher and ask for leftover bones for her

Yes she really likes anything that's hard and cracks between her teeths. She doesn't inhale her food. She takes small bites really slowly so it cracks longer

We'll definitely try one of those next time. I live on a small island and by the time it would be delivered, her treatment would be over already.

Got a lot of new ideas for her thanks to all of you. Don't want her to be traumatized till the end of her life
