Cooked Veal Liver As Flavor Enhancer 2 Replies

Frenchies can be a tad fussy. Right? Somewhat understated, I know. But does anyone feed their Frenchie cooked veal liver? Not on a regular basis, but say twice per month. Aldo is liking it, but that's today. Tomorrow who knows. Thanks.

so sorry to hear about Daisy's eye..I hope it clears up fairly quickly. Do they know if there is any sight loss? I have very little side vision and as a result am fairly easily startled. Wonder if (depending on which way you usually approach…

Update. Daisy is still wearing her collar and trailing her leash at all times. This definitely took out the stress of taking her out. We have not tried to alter this because we soon noticed after the start of this behavior that she…
