I tried seeing if there were any threads like this on the forum but couldn't find any.

So far Odin goes nuts for celery lol so I will thread it and give some here and there. He also love pickles and nectarines o_0, I know the pit is bad for them and when I feed him its tiny pieces and only when he has calmed down haha so far those are what he will stare at me intently and bark for. Everything else he can care less about, wont sit there and stare or bark. Of course I don't encourage begging so I make him work for it.

Raspberries. We have a godzilla bunch of stalks Nina uses as her own personal candy store, but she can't reach them all. She gets really excited when I pick them off for her, so sweet. I let her have all of the fall crop this year.

I figure it's healthier than a lot of other stuff used as bait~8D

Rupert **loves** carrots and frankfurters, but nothing compares to a nice face full of cow poo! :)

Cheese. Any kind of cheese. And peanut butter.

Gracie will eat some fruits and vegetables, but not with the same enthusiasm as cheese or peanut butter engender.

Sardines! Of all the foods Nina has tried, I have NEVER seen her get as excited as she does for a sardine. It's ridiculous. If I offered her a raw slab of steak, or a raw bone...she'd pick the sardine. Ribbons too!

Zil loved sardines too...up until he discovered tuna... Oh how he loved tuna! He even had a little dance he would do for it accompanied by whines and yips and me singing "tuna tuna tuna!" :lol:

...I wish I had have videoed it :(

Don't say the word Cheez-it around Jones... Or you are bound to have a 70lb steamroller come jumping in your lap giving you the sad eye.

Isys and Ronin loves durian fruit. Isys has even chewed off the shell of the fruit (which has lots of spikes) to get at the fruit without hurting herself! Not sure how she was able to do that.

Cheese, it's a really big deal. He can hear me open the drawer in the fridge and comes running.

Ice Cubes. Gemma LOVES ice. I know a lot of people don't agree with giving ice, but you can't say no to "the look". When we have people over or go to a bbq if a complete stranger opens a cooler she's all up in their business to get a cube.

Ditto to the ice cubes here. My son is too lazy to pick up an ice cube if he drops it (grrr...) so he just calls Capri and lets her munch it down.

It would be quicker for me to type things my dogs DON'T like--olives and dill pickles.

My last girl HATED raw liver--she SPAT a piece across the room at me the first time I gave her any. I had just gotten her and she was so homesick she didn't eat for quite a few days. I figured liver would be a treat, but........it landed right at my feet. Splat!!

Ice cubes are bad for dogs? I havnt heard that one before, why is that then? Is it something to do with a choking hazzard? Or maybe bad for their teeth? I put Ice cubes in my puppy's Kong, so would love to know the answer :confused2

Liver, sardines, freeze dried tripe, baby food (we used to use it for recall), and... pineapple of all things. He likes a lot of fruits and veg but he goes crazy for pineapple. He doesn't get it often but he'd do backflips for it I swear.

Tuna, raspberries, cheese, peanut butter and dehydrated chicken strips. You cant say any of those words without him getting excited.
However he absolutely does not like red pepper for some reason

I've heard it's a fear of chipping a tooth. This is my 3rd dog that has loved ice and I have never had an issue. I really don't see how ice can be different from a raw bone (NOT starting an argument, I just don't see the difference) not to mention it way too easy to inadvertently feed too many treats and end up with a chunky monkey :)

There's a long list for Maiya. Her favorite foods that are part of her normal diet are sardines and sweet potatoes. She likes dried tripe for training but maybe that's because she doesn't get it that often. I normally use cheese and hot dogs for training. Of all the brands I have tried so far, she likes Nathan's hot dogs the best. My DH bought a package of hot dogs for $1.00 at Walmart one time - thinking that they were good enough for training. Maiya wouldn't touch them.

We brought home prime rib leftovers from a restaurant once and that had to be her all time favorite.
