I remember when I got my puppy, a female labrador. I'd never had a dog before. I spent a couple of hours trying to remove her umbilical cord with the rubber tip of a pencil. Imagine my surprise when my boyfriend came home and saw me - it wasn't an umbilical cord I was trying to remove, it was her fanny!

POOR DOG!

Well, Beardie will eat anything but anything,

Yep our (first) cypriot multipedigree (mutt) managed to eat a 3/4 full box of firelighters and then was promtly sick! Now whenever I am in the shops with my partner and they deleiberate over which caaned dog food or dry biscuits to buy - I point out that if the dog will eat firelighters she will not be to bothered which selection of dog food is made.

That's the difference between mongrels and pedigrees... my dog's a fussy little bugger...

... and the ubiquitous dose of grated halloumi...

whre did she get this habit from???

The cat I had in Cyprus LOVED grilled halloumi!

[cannedmoose]

She's been a fussy eater since we got her as a small pup, refuses to eat unless she likes something, even if she goes 2 days without eating

So we gave her a little bit of halloumi to try and she's been addicted ever since. Since we don't want her to choke on its rubberiness, we grate a whole halloumi at the beginning of the week, keep it airtight and sprinkle a little in her Cesar twice a day... if you leave it out she won't eat it! We also brought back some pre-grated halloumi from Cyprus in the plastic tubs, she wouldn't touch it, has to be fresh Fussy little thing... she's cute though.
