A Kale farmer has a visitor on site and is about to feed his dogs. He goes over and sets down 2 large bowls of raw kale. Dogs come running over and scarf it down.
Visitor says - "I didn't know dogs would eat kale!"
Farmer says - "They didn't the first four or five days."

Back in my single days I had a really sweet doberman. She was a total self feeder. One day she started batting her dog food bowl around to let me know it needed to be filled up. I was out of her food. So I hopped in the car and went to the grocery store. They were out of her regular brand. So I got a different brand, of the same type of dog food. I filled up her bowl, and she turned up her nose. The next morning it was still there. That afternoon I knew she had to be really hungry. She decided that food was not so bad after all. The next grocery store visit I went back to the old food. She turned her nose up again. It took two days to get her to love it. I guess she was wanting to be picky, but I felt very sure she would eat whatever was out for her.
