Huh I would never have thought to get dog food for them. I've done zero "research" though, just figured that unsalted seeds, nuts etc at least won't kill them 😅
There's some magpies near me, but I don't have a predictable enough routine to befriend them. I had some crow friends once and they would knock on my window when I was late coming out to them.
They fucking love meatballs, the scavenger birds that they are.
I have the local crows as my friends. Just shared a pastry with them while coming home. They often fly besides me when I'm coming from the store to see whether I have anything for them.
