I just discovered that my dog loves marshmallows
I mean LOVES LOVES LOVES them, goes crazy for! She has never even gone this crazy over any dog treats I've ever gotten her, although she came close with Snausages.

But the other day I just happened to give her one of those mini marshmallows, sort of as a joke on her but OMG she scarfed it up and then got a crazy look in her eyes and begged for more! I gave her a couple more but I know it's bad.

Have any of you ever given your dog a mini marshmallow, and if so, what was their reaction? I swear, it's like crack for my dog.

Weird!!

1. I had a German Shepherd dog who adored asparagus
and I have a greyhound and a whippet who also adore marshmellows.

2. My dogs love mini-marshmallows too.

Of course they will eat anything-- and if it falls on the floor, it is theirs!

They also love those little diced frozen vegetables (which are much better for them). It's so cute, they line up and I toss them frozen diced carrots, green beans, etc.

I had a Golden who loved Reddi Whip. He would make a bee-line for the kitchen if he heard anyone shaking the can! We always put a little dollop on his nose.

3. I open a can of packed pumpkin and it's like fracking dog Christmas around here.
It's a little pathetic.

4. Marshmellows are actually made out of Bone marrow
which is why, as a vegan, I don't eat them. But I could see why a dog would love them.
