Answer 1

i have a pure bred 1 year old german shepherd who weighs about 105 or 110 and he eats chicken rice and vegtable with some purina one large breed puppy formula twice a day every day

Answer 2

My dog is on a dry food diet, which can be quite bland, so we make it more interesting for him by adding in pasta, tuna, baked beans or vegatables, which are all ingrediants in dog food anyway.

He also enjoys treats like biscuits and ice cream but those are not for everyday. It's all very well saying dogs shouldn't get table food but when they become part of the family, it's hard not to give in to those big pleading eyes sometimes!

Answer 3

We feed our dog pretty much everything but chocolate. Although she did eat a pound of Valentine's Day chocolate once. That was scary but the vet said she'd have to eat 7 pounds for it to kill her (depends on the dog's size). She used to eat apples but lost interest in them. McDonald's hamburgers, Steak-n-Shake, Taco Bell, Jack in the Box, french fries, ham, bacon, turkey, cheese, regular hamburgers, hot dogs, jelly beans for awhile, food from our plates like chicken, steak, whatever, Three Dog bakery cookies, Milkbones, butter cookies, peanut butter cookies, she once ate a full plate of chicken my Mom made for Jewish friends we had invited over on Christmas Day (my family tradionally eats ham for Christmas) and no one freaking noticed. Not a big fan of vegetables, but she likes potatoes. She doesn't like her dogfood much because of this and puts that off as the last resort, but sometimes we will put cheese and gravy on it and heat it in the microwave. She'll be 15 in about 2 weeks, and she's still very spry and lean, and she goes on several walks a day.

Answer 4

I have two Siberian Huskies and they get their dry dog food mixed with a raw egg, and about 1/4 to 1/2 can of canned dog food each. They have rawhide bones to chew on and also get dog biscuits (milkbones) as treats. They do not get any table scraps.

Answer 5

I don't feed her from the table. She likes peanut butter, too (I think all dogs do). Other foods that are good for dogs are carrots, lettuce, broccoli, green beans, apple, banana, strawberries.

Answer 6

Though I don't feed my dog any sort of table food besides the occassional bone and such, I don't believe all the "dont feed your dog human food" BS. I grew up with a beagle who finally kicked it at 19 years old. He'd eaten table food his whole life.

Answer 7

Yes, but I know it is not the best for them. The dogs have a bowl of their food, but if I am eating something and don't finish it, they get it.
If it is a meat with no they don't get it. Plain meat yes. Most of the food I give is plain with no seasoning. They love vegetables and believe it or not, my Newfoundland loves cantalope!

Answer 8

I mix vegetables into Sandy's dog food (peas, carrot, beans) and every so often she gets peanut butter.

Answer 9

i had a westhighland terrior and he ate anything. i had to take away alot on walks as he wanted to munch. he loved grapes, salad, anything. his favorite was checker burger and their fries. he would go nuts until he got a few fries. any place else, he didn't care for but only checkers. i would give him some fries and a burger broken up in small pieces. otherwise he ate his dog food and would only eat the cheap dog food. he also wouldn't eat until i started to eat. he would sit and wait until i took a bit before he would eat also.

Answer 10

Our dogs have dry food out at all times. They get canned food daily and whatever we have for dinner, they get too. We just prepare them a plate of whatever we're having.
They eat any and all veggies and fruits. They have their cookies and dog treats too.
Basically they eat our food and their food.
