Do you eat dog food?
Nope, my point exactly!
I don't I see entirely to many nutrition issues in dogs that eat human food
It seems obvious. People will feed their dogs food from the table, then spend thousands of dollars on their health issues that were most likely caused by the food! It's unreal.
No, I don't because I agree with what everyone else says.. a lot of human food is terrible for humans, let alone dogs. And they are so much smaller then us and likely cannot pass the toxins like we can, so it causes expensive health issues down the road. I always cringe when I see people feeding their dogs from the table.
In other countries humans feed their dogs with human food and their dogs live up to their maximum life potential. This shouldn't even be a topic for debate. Owners can feed their dogs with either dog food, human food or a combination of both. You cannot judge a pet owner by the kind of food they feed their dogs.
Absolutely not and I try to advice against it as much as I can to pet owners that come into our clinic. It causes so many digestive problems
I think it depends so much on the dog breed and pet owners should do their research on the breed before owning one so they can know the proper care
Some dogs can eat raw meats, but feeding dogs processed foods or fries or something like that harms them so mcuh
I do it on occasion. However, we usually mixed their foods. If the dog enjoys human food, we usually feed it to them. But not all of the time. We make certain that they do not become ill.
NO i do not!
I'm curious if other dog owners out there ever feed their pups human food. I know some people who do and swear by it, but I personally don't. We've got a debate going on at the clinic right now and I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts!
You know feeding them boiled chicken heads save us a lot of money every month. Not really human food if you ask me, but hey it's enough for them and they get to eat you know
Like who doesn't feed their dogs human food? I think everyone in my town does anyways. Personally our family dogs have been accustomed to eating human food with rice and it doesn't bother them one bit
