bbes tribe said...: Hey Stumpy, Once you get past the "prickly texture" as put so well by the OP Pack, they are pretty good. M has tried giving us a taste too. Not bad...

Cyndi and Stumpy said...: OP Pack, Stumpy actually did eat the strawberry. she loves them, but she loves to get them good and mushy before chowing down! I'd take those two cattel dog girls in a heartbeat, if I could. Thanks for the link!

bbes tribe, coming from the east coast, Stumpy is an experienced berry picker and muncher. she has her own way of doing things.

Stella, She loves betrries! she likes the green part, best!

Kari, and blueberries and rasberries and ...

Booker, she gets her strwberries, daily, when I make my smoothie...all cut up, too!

Sophie, Stumpy will trade you her bananas for your strawberries!

Mango, She went for it alright...and then I had to share my smoothie!

Wizz, it must be! she would eat them all if I would let her (and I chopped them up for her); May 22, 2011 at 4:34 PM
Lorenza said...: Stumpy!

Wyatt said...: Stumpy, are you having shortcake for dessert? Can we come over??
We LOVE strawberries and we just have flowers now, no berries!! When I was a little 9 week old pup, that was the first thing I found in the garden, ripe strawberries...oh, puppyhood memories :)

susan said...: Break out the whipped cream. Stella commandeered a piece of butternut squash (raw) the other night and I swear it took her ten minutes to eat the thing. It was all over the floor in tiny pieces before (I'm assuming) she decided it was okay.; May 22, 2011 at 8:30 PM
Anonymous said...: Stumpy you didn't eat it all?!!! I luv strawberries! Frozen, fresh, blended, shaken ;P

Cyndi and Stumpy said...: Lorenza, strawberries are very yummilicious!

Wyatt, when we lived on the east coast Stumpy was all about picking our strawberries before the squirrels and bunnies!

Susan, no whipped cream :( Stumpy's not inot the vegetables, but there's a reason why I give her things like strawberries, outside!

Roo, Oh! She ate it all! she just had to moosh up good first!; May 23, 2011 at 5:42 AM
