Sometimes money get really tight at the end of the month and I give my dogs rice with chicken broth. When they eat it they act like they are getting a treat, and not because they are hungry. I also go to the Dollar Store and buy hotdogs. I then cut them up and mix them thoroughly in the rice. This gets a bit tricky, because my dogs are so smart that they will actually use their paws and dig out the hotdogs and eat them and then ignore the rice. I also like to give them hard bread sometimes. They seem to like the round ones. One of them likes to toss the round ones in the air and play with them. My dogs do not like dog food. I guess they just don't like the fact that cornmeal is usually the first ingredient.
