Video: Adoptable Encinitas Dogs Try Carrots

Some loved them, others seemed to disregard them as food and a few were more curious than anything else. Most are up for adoption at Rancho Coastal Humane Society.

Patch recently aired a video of Dr. Kathy Boehme of the Drake Center for Veterinary Care showing readers why and how to introduce vegetables to dogs.
Since then, readers have left comments saying that a lot of dogs like carrots as treats.
So I went down to Rancho Coastal Humane Society with a bag of carrots sticks and sought expert opinion from a few dogs up for adoption.
Some loved them, others seemed to disregard them as food and a few were more curious than anything else.
So take a look at the video and hear directly from Kaya (adopted), Charlie, Brownie (Adopted), Cody, Zena, Penny, Lacey, Diesel and Salami.
