big fat steak will probably lead to big fat pile of diarrhea! I wouldn't go overboard, maybe some pieces of steak off the edges, if he wont eat meat raw then there is no point in giving it if it will only waste.

Yeah I would avoid that if he is not used to the raw! Maybe add some special treats to his food! or bake him a doggie cake!

You could also do something that he likes to do that day!!

When is Cassius's BDay?

He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion.

i guess ill just go get him some really junky dog treats - like beggin strips or something

i usually get the healthy treats that have stuff for his skin or joints in them - but everyone should splurge once in a while.

Hey I have never heard if doggie ice cream?? do they sell it somewhere near you?

Have you ever given Cass yogurt? My guy loves it! I was thinking you could get him a nice big dog cookie from the pet store and then dip it in some yogurt and then throw it in the freezer for a bit to chill the yougurt and then enjoy!

I have a dog cookie book if your interested....I actually think I posted it here before...I'll have a look

i have yet to venture into baking - as a 25 year old guy im pretty pleased that i cook for myself every night, baking terrifies me.

doggie ice cream has been around at least 5-6 years -

I give my guys plain yogurt and they love it.

Natural plain yogurt is good for them.

I would give him his favourite food on his "B" day. Hope you both have a great day on the 11th.

My new rescue Keesha will be 3 tomorrow, I think I will do something special for her. She deserves it, just like your boy does.
