One of the things the vet told me to do was to supliment some of Mason's food with greenbeans. He said that it would fill him up without giving him the extra calories. At first, I wasnt sure if he would eat them. After all, dogs and vegetables don't exactly mix. However, I was soon proven wrong.
When I gave Mason his dinner, I usually make him lay down acroos the room untill I tell him to take it. Usually, this isn't a problem. However, now that greenbeans are part of the meal, it's a bit more of a struggle. One time, I got his dinner together, and was putting it down for him. When I told him he could take it, he ran across the dorm so fast that he knocked his harness off of the bathroom door. I guess the differense between him and most little kids is that I don't have to worry about reminding him to eat his vegetables. Lol.

veggies are actually supposed to be healthy treats for most dogs. We used to feed my sheltie carrots all the time. Had to break my dad of the habit of throwing carrots off the table when Mom wasn't looking, though, since Prada can't have people food. (yes, Dad's the one that needs more veggie-eating reminders than the kids in our family).
