Rocket loves them. He also will eat almost any kind of fruit; apples, oranges. bananas - doesn't matter. He loves it all.

 

I've heard that the baby carrots are used by some of the racing kennels as treats also.

All of my greys have loved carrots, I think it's because they are crunchy and sweet. They have liked a wide variety of other fruits and veg too. Also, if you are a sighthound you have to keep your sight in tip top condition, and if it was good enough for fighter pilots then it's good enough for greyhounds! :hehe

Fun fact-- carrots don't actually help your sight! But in order to keep their radar program secret during WWII, the British military claimed their pilots had excellent eyesight (and could see Nazi planes coming) because they ate a lot of carrots!

 

And he IS so cute. It's hard to say no to his big eyes :) this morning taught us that he likes APPLES!

What a shame that my very well developed sense of humour doesn't come across in the written word, or is it just that you assumed I was stupid? :rotfl

Didn't notice the humor and no, I don't think you're stupid! I only learnt this recently, so I don't assume that others know :)

My little guys like carrots! I am allergic to them so I don't buy them all that often... Clarice hasn't had any carrots yet. Perhaps next time I'm at the store...

 

Sage likes WHOLE carrots though...no baby carrots!

Jinn loves carrots! We give them to her as a treat after we brush her teeth... we've been so consistent that she gets super excited whenever we finish with the brush and go to the fridge to grab a couple :lol: We buy those big bulk bags at Costco. She loves her veggies and apples too.

Frisby absolutely loved raw broccoli stalk and would appear the moment he heard the salad drawer of the fridge being opened (how I miss that). One day, just to test him I put a piece of broccoli & a piece of raw chicken together on the floor and he went for the broccoli. Mind you he did come back for the chicken!

Throp & Pru (eats anything even likes oranges) love raw carrots to chew on, Hattie turns her nose up at them but does like brocolli instead. She sniffs out cleavers in the garden to eat which the other 2 don't, saves me some weeding!
