Our dog Maya loves anything that taste sweet (which I’m not sure all
dogs come under this category) and whenever we have something she used to bark
which means she needs some bit too. We rarely offer her some piece of sweet or
cakes or cookies made of chocolate to satisfy her unending desire and to make
her have medicine or tablet we used to hide it inside the sweet or chocolate
because she never took easily orally a medicine. Sometime we voluntarily drop a
tablet in front of her and pretend to pick it up where she swiftly act and take
the tablet in mouth. Rarely she eats the sweet alone and split the tablets
separately.
We don’t keep down things Maya is interested on when she was on loose
and sometime she behaves senseless picking anything from the house dustbin. Two
days back, relatives visited us and they brought a sweet box and some fruits which
mom had left on the floor in thought Maya were tied and forget to shift things
from there. When we saw later everything was fished off the sweet box. Maya had
eat 1/4kg of the Mysore Pak and looked with a weighted tummy as if having offsprings and also found difficult
to walk. We really thought/worried what going to happen to her as she already
have wheezing and weaker heart and this heavy loaded Mysore Pak (made of
generous amounts of ghee and sugar) could cause anything. But glad she’s doing
well and turned normal next day after couple of toilet visits.
About Mysore Pak: It was originally called as Mysuru Paaka, in which Mysuru
indicates the city of Mysore, in the Indian state of Karnataka and Paaka means sweet
syrup, is a popular Indian sweet made
of ghee, sugar, gram flour and cardamom.

Maya is a sweet dog, very pretty photo. I hope she does not get sick from eating things that are not good for dogs. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post today. Happy Saturday and have a great weekend. PS, thanks for the comment on my blog.
ReplyDeleteIt is a wonderful dog. White dogs are great and this one knows what it wants to eat for sure. Our dog goes through cycles as to what it wants to beg for and maybe receive.
ReplyDeleteChocolate is poisonous to some dogs so very happy to hear she is okay.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute dog. Our dog used to pick out the pill too from his food. We used to roll it up in a piece of meat and then freeze it. When it was time for the medication, we fed him that. Most times it worked because it was frozen. Dogs are very smart though and it doesn't take long for them to figure out the preocess. then you must have a plan B. :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute dog. Chocolate isn't good for dogs, can you get her some doggie treats instead?

Looks like Maya just love sweet snacks. Too much chocolate is not good for dog as mentioned in this link: https://www.hillspet.com/dog-care/nutrition-feeding/is-chocolate-bad-for-dogs.
ReplyDeleteCute dog .might be I will get a dog for tungli soon.
ReplyDeleteOh goodness! Dogs will get into anything. We had a dog that ate a whole tray of baklava- which is a very sweet Greek pastry. Fortunately she did t get sick, we were somewhat amazed. I’m glad Maya is doing well! I’ve never heard of Mysore pak, but is sounds delicious!
ReplyDeleteMaya is very cute, but I hope her sweet tooth doesn't get her into more trouble.
