This is Jazz, our really truly Puerto Rican puppy.
Jazz has been acting weird lately, especially at feeding time. He hasn't been eating well and he's distracted and itchy. Elaine finally figured out he has a food allergy. So, we had to find a new, completely different food. We found one, but he wasn't much more interested in that than the old food.
Now, Jazz has always been a picky eater. We frequently add something - a bit of canned dog food, cheese, something - to entice him to eat better. Elaine had some fat drained off when she cooked some chicken and thought, "that'll do it!" Not so much. Jazz sniffed at it and kind wandered off.
About the only thing left to put it in his food was a little bit of our friend Marisol's rice and beans. So in it went. Same food, same chicken fat, just a little rice and beans added. HE GOBBLED IT! I mean just snarffed it up!
So now he gets a little rice and beans mixed in with his sensitive stomach formula food. Marisol has been making extra rice and beans for months to feed us. Now she makes a little bit more extra for Jazz. Whodathunkit?
