Carrots are a mild source of sugar & should be fed to them in moderation in raw form, but cooked & drained most of the sugar is gone but not most of the vitamins & minerals. Beags love mixed vegetables...(but they LOVE nearly anything edible)!!! Long before the wheat gluten fiasco, I have made my own "wet-food" to mix with their dry-food. In short, I use a pound of frozen mixed veggies & 2to 4 packets of ramen noodles or equevelent pasta & a pound of any kind of meat or fish! (And the spice packet of one of the ramen noodle packs) to season it! Use a few spoons of this with their dry-food & some warm-water & you will get even the "fussiest eater" to clean-out their food bowl! :thumbup:

Btw, Do give your beag a "pet-tab" multi vitamin at least twice a week or the Wal-mart equevalent. Goober is a good test-case of what we have learned over the years as he still greets me with a session of "the zoomies" when I come home after work even though he is now approaching 16 yrs old! /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/eek.gif
