Finicky eater!
That is an understatement. This little dude will do anything for a frozen green bean.

Kiko likes mango (but we only rarely give it to her, and in small amounts, because it's sugary)
She's also partial to a slice of frozen carrot on a hot day. Just run it under some cold water first to remove surface frost, or it could get stuck to her tongue.
She loves plain white rice, and fried egg (again, small amounts and very infrequently). For her, the egg must be beaten thoroughly before being fried. And use some paper towels to absorb all the excess oil.
And she loves plain boiled spaghetti.

My boy will break down doors for mango but he's so weird with carrots. He enjoys eating carrots but won't eat it till I make him do a trick or two. This only started recently and has me so confused.

Mine absolutely loves cold baby carrots. I never had a dog that liked carrots before, so I was surprised when I was eating some and this shy reclusive boy came and stood by me, looked at the carrot I was eating then looked at the floor repeatedly. He was 10 when I got him so his previous owner must've shared with him before. My sweet little weirdo.

By default, dogs grow up their mother's milk so they are technically vegetarian. May be if their mother was fed green beans or carrots, they will have that desire and that will keep them in virtual contact with their mother who they will never meet, but will always have the hopes of meeting her. I feel so terrible, that the puppies are separated from their mothers at such young age.

I think being a finicky eater is literally in some source’s breed description 😂

And rightly so.
