(VICT) Re: treat ideas please

Valerie,

She eats Chicken Soup for the Dog Lovers Soul.  It is the only food that she 
seems to be able to tolerate.  It's only when she gets anything non kibble 
that we enter the danger zone.  After really thinking about it, I am 
wondering if it isn't some sort of spice, preservative or additive.  I'm 
also thinking it has something to do with how empty or full her stomach is 
at the time she gets the treats.  Sometimes she can eat a particular food 
and no problem and then the next time... well I'll just leave it there. 
*smile*
Thanks!
Julie
