    I've been using tiny little dried fish they are not sticky and I gained a new lab yesterday just because they were in my pocket. The sweet girly would not leave my side. I don't care if I smell of fish it helps keep muggers at bay

    I havent tried sardines as I imagine the smell must be terrible but I must add that i made liver cake for my boys birthday 2nd birthday last week and he went CRAZY for it...being a dog walker i thought id test it on the dogs too, 8 dogs and everyone loved it! Even the fussy ones that don't like taking food, i even managed to get one shy nervous boy to come completely out of his shell! Plus its really simple to make and can be frozen, plus its not that smelly, bargain :)

    Excellent, I was trying to choose which pouches to order. The fish4dogs salmon mousse will do nicely. I believe I have one of these in the puppy pack they sent me :D

    They are very good....give Charlie slightly runny poo though (and it's always OH who has to get up to take him out in the middle of the night...I'm under pressure not to use them too much!).

    I have no problem with hand feeding them but then I can't use them if I am doing a facial on a client later in the day :eek: Even after several good scrubs I can still smell a hint of fish. On those days I'll use the fish4dogs salmon mousse that @julie mentioned. Yippee, I can still do smelly food before work :D

    I'll keep that in mind, my OH does the night shift and the early morning. Lucky me :D

    Today my daughter in law purchased a pack of 10 baby feeding pouches in Poundland for Boris. I have just started using one, it seems tough. It was fiddly filling and how long it will last remains to be seen. But 10p each they are expendable.
