How to feed your dog spinach without hiring Popeye

The more you do research into diets recommended by vets who focus on nutrition as a healing tool, the more you notice the emphasis on using spinach as a very acceptable non starchy green in your dogs diet.

The trick is, how to get them to eat it.  My dogs are so
use to eating their raw vegetables, that they eat broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, and spinach.  I occas- ionally give them carrots as a treat, and sometimes yellow squash, zucchini squash, and pea pods, but not a lot due to how starchy these three items are.

They do on occasion give me grief about spinach.  They try to eat it then gently spit it out.  They don’t want to offend me as the giver of food by spitting it out and making loud hacking noises like I am trying to poison them, so they gently chew on it to commune
respect for the giver, then sort of pretend not to notice when it happens to fall out of their mouth while they look at me expectantly in hopes of something else.

What I have found is that if I chop up the fresh spinach, and mix it into their meal, they gobble it up. Unfortunately, my dogs like a two course meal.  They want their meat first.  And then, they want their fresh veggies.  If I mix the veggies into the meat all at the same time, they feel cheated.  So another thing I do is chop the spinach up, and then sprinkle Halo Dinner Party on it, available here on Amazon.  This helps ensure they also
gobble it up. Here is a picture of my container (almost empty!).  Using this helps me to get Baby Bella to eat it.  She is pretty finicky still. The spinach photos are fresh spinach chopped up with Halo Dinner Party (shown) sprinkled on it.

As you can see above, Gus gobbles his. I also have Halo Dinner Party available in the Products store via the menu at the top of the page.
