   Hi Janis

   LOL, and there is Nothing like watching a cat fish by the fish bowl..   
      
    > I made hot spicy mussels the day before yesterday, and interestingly enough   
    > it was the DOGS that wanted them though :)   
      
   That something special about dogs, they will be glad to try just   
   aboutanything. If a dog doesn't like it, You might think about eating it   
   yourself :)   
   Years and Years ago The Family had a newfoundland. He was raised as a puppy   
   onnatural food. The breeder suggested to continue, but said she understood if   
   wedid not keep it up, but feed him a quality kibble and throw some fruit   
   andveggies in there too. My Mother spoiled that dog. She would cut up apples   
   andstuff which he loved. But it was hilarious to see him eat when she cut   
   upcarrots into small pieces. You know how a dog can Wolf his dinner down.   
   Wellthis guy would dig right in and eat. You walk away and come back and   
   everylittle piece of carrot, he spit out next to the side of his dish in a   
   littlepile.. He just hated carrots and even when grabbing mouthfuls of food,   
   he wouldeat the food and spit out the carrots just like a little kid. I don't   
   thinkthere was another food he did not like.   
      
   Did the dogs get any mussels?   
      
   My Parrot is the interesting one. He loves everything in spurts. The vet   
   saidwhen I first got him. He is an avian vet. I will tell you this, he is   
   going tooutlive you and you can spend all kinds of rediculous money on Parrot   
   food andspecial parrot kibble etc. I am telling You, Feed him off of the   
   table. Nocommercial parrot food. It will save you a lot of money and he will   
   eat better.So that is what I did. He eats just about anything, but oddly his   
   favorites arechicken wings, scrambled eggs, egg salad, meatloaf and ohh his   
   all timefavorite is Hot dogs. You would not think that would be good for him   
   but thevet says it is perfect as he eats fruits and veggies too, but prefers   
   the meatand proteins over them, It is the first thing he eats in the mix of   
   food. Lovesmashed potatoes, green beans, bananas, melons, just about anything.   
   When heeats one of his favorites, Chicken wings, he eats them meat bone and   
   all. Whoknew they were little cannibals    
      
      
   Have a good One!
