On the opposite end of counter surfer and sweet tooth I once had a pyr that
hated to eat and was such an awful eater that I used to put a bowl of food in
the doorways of rooms I wanted to keep him away from. And even more ridiculous,
it worked! His passion was Jello. We had a house that was 3 rooms
deep and he would run from the living room, through the dining room and slam
through the swinging kitchen door and almost knock me over when he smelled the
Jello. It had more impact than beef or chicken or anything to get his appetite
going. He was over 33" at the withers from old timer Kohler's Eszterhazy kennels
(if you know the early people who first had pyrs in this country MANY years ago
you know the name) and he weighted maybe 100 lbs so we were forever trying to
find something he liked to eat. He had seizures and was a physical mess
but he was my first pyr 35 yrs ago so I had no idea. Anyway, I've come a
loooong way since then.
