First of all this is going to sound a little wierd. (A male dog that loves pink but I don't fight it because he has been through so much, if he wants pink he can have pink)
Okay I am about to head out to the doc and on my way back I am going to be picking up some new dog bowls for my dogs.
Here is why, Zacks nose is looking red and raw in spots and the belief is it has to do with the plastic dog bowls....has anyone heard of this happening before?
Supposedly bacteria gets trapped in the plastic bowls no matter how well you clean them and that can cause discoloration and possibly infection for a dogs lips and nose?
Anyways I am looking to either get stainless steel or glass. Problem is this dog refuses to eat our of anything that isn't pink.
Which is better stainless steel or glass?
And if we go with stainless steel how to get him to eat out of it?
(If we go with glass I can find him a pink bowl)
I don't know what his infatuation with pink is, but he refuses to eat if its not in a pink bowl. the bowl he eat out of currently isn't even his bowl, its his sisters.
Thanks
Also what is with the infatuation with pink, I don't get it. He never had anything pink before we got our female Terrier mix. (Ofcourse we were having to force feed him and everything back then, he was very ill)
We bring in our Terrier mix and we get her a pink bowl, pink toys, pink bed, pink blanket. Well Zack was just drawn to the pink. He took her pink toys, pink bed, pink blanket and pink bowl.
Well thats fine Sasha would eat out of anything so we brought her in some other new stuff, we got her a purple bowl and some red and blue toys and stuff and he wanted nothing to do with those, so we knew that those were a safe bet, as in he wasn't going to take them from her.
So anyways, we had to replace his pink blanket and we got him a blue one, he wouldn't touch it. So we got a pink one and he went right to it. Sasha took the blue one. We went out of town and took our blue travel bowls, he wouldn't eat. So now when we go out of town we take their regular bowls and he eats very well.
So I don't understand why he is infatuated with this color? Could it be because everything we bought Sasha was Pink and so he wanted it because it was hers?
I have never seen this in a dog. And its weird because he is a male
