Last night for dinner I was making my zucchini/yellow squash/onion sauté for dinner and as I was transferring all the veggies to my big cast iron chicken fryer pan (my favorite for sautéing anything!) a few pieces of the zucchini and squash fell on the floor and lo and behold...Chester gobbled them up like they were candy!
So I gave him more slices and he gobbled them all down one after the other! I'm so happy my boy likes these raw veggies and I'm going to start keeping some sliced up in the fridge for him for snacks. For some reason he doesn't care for baby carrots as treats, but heck, if he likes the squash and zucchini I guess they're just as healthy and low-calorie too! The vet said he could stand to loose a pound or two so I guess I'll be giving more veggies and less baked treats from now on. Now if I could follow the same advice and shed some pounds myself....
