Dog Food

Thank the gods for free samples.

A couple of weeks ago I went to a couple of dog events and due to my unerring cuteness I was able to walk away with bags upon bags of free sample sizes of dog food.

Recently, my (current) roommate went and bought dog food. I know she bought the brand I normally buy and have been using for years (Kirkland, repackaged Diamond Dog foods) and whatever it is she wants her dog to eat.

I'm not sure if the new food mix is the cause of Rufus feeling ill today but I did notice that neither one of the dogs, who bother me to feed them about a half hour before they're normally fed, weren't bothering me to be fed.

When I went to put food down for them they both looked at their dishes and then looked at me like I had just told them to come over to me and get a beating. I gave them each a half serving.

Neither dog ate.

I went to my stash of SWAG from the doggie events and pulled out a couple of sample packs, pouring them out for the dogs next to their dishes. Both of them quickly gobbled up the sample foods and both of them walked away from their more traditional dinners.

Since I'm moving this weekend I don't see the point in buying a large bag of something, but I may have to run out and buy a smaller bag to last the next few days. At least for Rufus. My roommate can continue to feed her dog whatever she wants.


For the record Rufus will eat without question): Kirkland (Costco) Chicken, Avoderm, Evo, Natural Balance and Bil Jac?
