Just be aware, if you give in to him you are making a rod for your own back. Having said that I often add tasties into Bacchus's kibble, but on my terms not his.
Have heard a few unpleasant things about Iam's research/test procedures.

There's nothing wrong with adding something to kibble every meal as long as whatever it is, is healthy & you reduce the amount of kibble accordingly - you don't want a fat staff!

What are you adding at the moment?

Just a scrambled egg or a sardine and when I make his dried liver training treats I keep the cooking liquor and add a little of that. Once a day he gets a teaspoon of Salmon Oil. But TBH he's not a fussy eater and is quite happy with his kibble ( Orijen Puppy) straight from the bag.

Yes, anything like that is fine. A raw egg would be better, but scrambled is ok. Or half a tin of sardines in oil, or a bit of left over cooked meat (no sauces etc, just the meat). Anything like that will make the kibble more interesting.

Didn't think about the raw egg being better but now you mention it when I'm making fish in crumb I give him the leftover egg and he laps it up.
Thanks. Save me scrambling it.
