mmmmmm, rice

We've mentioned in past blog entries that we love, LOVE chicken broth sprinkled on our dog chow.  What we did not tell you is that we have another topping added to our food that we 'wiggle' for.  That superb topping???  Rice!

Back when we were young pups, we had a few tummy issues.  Our vet recommended boiling chicken and rice to help calm our tummies.  Of course, we devoured the C&R, so our owners were kind enough to make this special treat for us every now and then.  On top of that, our owners love to make Mexican dishes and many times (ok...every time), they make too much food and have leftovers.  Do you know a great way of reducing some of those leftovers?  GIVE THEM TO US!!!!  Well, you can give us a few of the items.  We don't really take so well to refried beans and peppers and some of the other ingredients, but the extra rice?  We can take the rice off of your hands with no hesitation at all!

Here's what you do.  Scoop out just a small amount less of our usual food portion (or the same amount if we've had a long day of exercise/playing).  Add a cup or so of cooked rice to our food dish and stir it around a bit.  The result?  A happy canine and an empty food dish!  MMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!
