Having been busy with getting my son sorted for college, i have totally forgotten to buy the bulk order of my dogs regular meat & bones! Whoops!
Last night they must have thought christmas came early! Pink alaskan salmon, freshly chopped tomatoes, pea pods & yoghurt. They loved it and spent a long time licking & chasing the bowls clean all around the kitchen. The sound of clanging metal was ringing in my head for a long time afterwards!
What have you fed your dogs when you have forgotten to re-order!

My lots always get left overs so have a very varied diet on top of the raw I feed them !

They always get a full Christmas dinner with all the trimmings and get special brithday dinners (when I remember it is their birthdays !! )

It was Mooses birthday yesterday so she got a large tin of kippers in sunflower oil with a pouch of wainrights followed by left over pesto pasta with a touch of fresh chilli and pine nuts  ! :-D

> What have you fed your dogs when you have forgotten to re-order!

Buster has kibble & tinned dog food. I've ran out of tinned before and defrosted a joint of beef for him, that's probably the most extravagant he's had.
Some of the foods I've used as 'emergency replacement' food are:

Steak (defrosted & raw)
fish in butter sauce (a few of those boil-in-the bag jobbies),
white fish fillets,
minced beef (defrosted & raw)
left-over cooked chicken.

Can't say he's ever felt hard-done-by with me forgetting to buy dog food :-D

cant say i intentionally feed this to my bully boy, more like the cheeky bugger went counter surfing and stole our huge £18.06p lump of cooked roast beef, was ment to be for our sunday roast i'd only popped upstairs for a minute before i was about to cut the beef and serve dinner, never in my life have i ever payed so much for a beef joint but as i had £18.00 in tesco vouchers i thought it would be a great treat, just wished id had a taste, lol,

Small amounts of turkey for their Christmas dinner, and pieces of liver cake for their birthdays (along with me singing 'happy birthday' to them!). Hetty the Picky Princess has also trained us to mix her kibble 50/50 with beef mince!

Mine had a joint of Venison, lovely and fresh, OH came in and thought it was for him..........

Where do i start.....
Haggis, neeps and tatties
Mince and tatties
Roast chicken, peas and roast tatties
Spag Boll
Chicken Risotto
Chilli
Ceasar salad
I usually make far too much for Ed and I so the dogs end up with quite a few left overs. Writing all that down has also highlighted why Ben is on a diet lol.

Slightly off topic but just seen an advert for 'lilys kitchen' tins of dog food 400g tins rrp at £2.49

A whole salmon bought in Tesco's on Xmas eve last year, reduced price and there was no way OH and I could polish it off :( so 5 dogs and a tiny greedy 2 kg cat ate till they were almost sick :)

I never thought i'd see the day when my dogs would be so pleased to see me arrive home with bags of veg from the allotment. When i'm shelling peas they are almost sitting on my lap waiting for me to drop something. I'd spent hours picking peas, brought home a large bag full and like a fool left them on the floor in the kitchen. My two boys had tucked in and munched their way through most of them. I could have cried. A very extravagant mistake! They also stole a string of about 20 home made frozen sausages! Full of puncture marks by the time i found them! 

But how your dogs ejoyed your hard work :)

Oh yes! They love their mum to bits you know. I think they're looking forward to me becoming old and senile! :-o

mine love a chicken chow mein from the chinese or a vindaloo from the Indian .......

freezer was left open recently and most of it defrosted, friends took the meat but couldnt find anyone to take fish and there is a limit to what I can eat with oh away so Brooke got trout, swordfish , tuna all fresh but the other two wernt interested She being the ganet of the family

LOL ClaireyS mine go mad for chicken seekh kebabs but I daren't tell the proprietors how much the dogs love their cooking

I always make my lot a christmas dinner, same as ours, with all the trimmings.  And on birthdays, they get a whole raw chicken with giblets to themselves.

A boxer that I sold to someone, took a large defrosting turkey on Christmas eve and munched through the best part of it, giblets and all.

Then pulled down a catering pack of Cadburys mini rolls and ate the lot! He did have the decency to spit out the silver foil from most.
They rang me in hysterics ....
He spent Christmas day at the vets feeling very sorry for himself.
He survived!

My dogs get Christmas dinner, last year the menu was rib of beef and free range turkey with the usual trimmings. My German roots mean we invariably end up with Christmas dinner on the 24th, followed by another Christmas dinner on the 25th. In my defence I generally refuse to cook again until the new year and the left overs are even better than the real deal.

What else do they get? As occasional treats, apple pancakes (first apples came in yesterday from the allotment, fall is here :-)), banana cake and once or twice I have made them scrambled egg with smoked salmon.

Just as well the dogs can't read this, as they would be feeling very hard done by and asking to be rehomed!

this must be where the phrase comes from, lucky dog! :-) :-)
