No it's completly normal. Dogs are just like humans. Humans choose what they like to eat so do dogs. So if the don't like it they don't eat it. If they do like it then obivously they eat it.

I know some dogs who like veggies. It can be unhealthy for him if that's all he eats, dogs need certain nutrients that can only be found in commercial dog foods. They make vegetarian dog foods, but you should check with your vet before buying one, not all of them have the right nutrients. Keep experimenting with different dog foods until you find one he likes. Also, I heard once that carrots are the best vegetable for dogs and they also clean their teeth. And I know you didn't say anything about fruit, but never give your dog raisins or grapes, they have something in them than can be fatal to dogs and cats.

No, not strange. He is a super hero from a past life!
Manufactured dog foods have veggies in them.
Purina Healthy Morsels - Lamb Meal & Rice combines cruchy bites from corn with chewy meaty chunks, and vegetable accents. Yum, ruff!

It merely shows you the way animals recognize what's sturdy for them regularly! sure, vegetables and culmination are sturdy for dogs. extremely eco-friendly leafy kinds that promote sturdy digestion and delivers some fiber to their weightloss plan. My little chihuahua, Cameo, loves apples and could eat one if i'm eating one. That is going for different culmination and vegetables besides. Garlic, garlic salt and onions aren't any further sturdy for dogs and may play havoc with their digestion and inner organs. those ingredients can help your canines stay a lengthy and in good structure existence. there are such countless web pages to analyze out those ingredients and diets for dogs you'd be surprised. So love Lola with suggestions from examining up on those and feed her hence.

I would ask the vet next time you take him. Mine loves carrots raw and cooked. I think its the sugar in them. Most all dog foods have vegitables in them. As long as its not losing weight I would say its doing fine.

Some breed of dogs like vegs more than others.
But I'm pretty sure its a vitamin deficiency.
