What is bad in human food to eat for dogs?

Question

I know about onions, garlic and chocolate but anything else?

Answer 1

Alcoholic beverages Can cause intoxication, coma, and death.
Baby food Can contain onion powder, which can be toxic to dogs. (Please see onion below.) Can also result in nutritional deficiencies, if fed in large amounts.
Bones from fish, poultry, or other meat sources Can cause obstruction or laceration of the digestive system.
Cat food Generally too high in protein and fats.
Chocolate, coffee, tea, and other caffeine Contain caffeine, theobromine, or theophylline, which can be toxic and affect the heart and nervous systems.
Citrus oil extracts Can cause vomiting.
Fat trimmings Can cause pancreatitis.
Grapes and raisins Contain an unknown toxin, which can damage the kidneys.
Hops Unknown compound causes panting, increased heart rate, elevated temperature, seizures, and death.
Human vitamin supplements containing iron Can damage the lining of the digestive system and be toxic to the other organs including the liver and kidneys.
Large amounts of liver Can cause Vitamin A toxicity, which affects muscles and bones.
Macadamia nuts Contain an unknown toxin, which can affect the digestive and nervous systems and muscle.
Marijuana Can depress the nervous system, cause vomiting, and changes in the heart rate.
Milk and other dairy products Some adult dogs and cats do not have sufficient amounts of the enzyme lactase, which breaks down the lactose in milk. This can result in diarrhea. Lactose-free milk products are available for pets.
Moldy or spoiled food, garbage Can contain multiple toxins causing vomiting and diarrhea and can also affect other organs.
Mushrooms Can contain toxins, which may affect multiple systems in the body, cause shock, and result in death.
Onions and garlic (raw, cooked, or powder) Contain sulfoxides and disulfides, which can damage red blood cells and cause anemia. Cats are more susceptible than dogs. Garlic is less toxic than onions.
Persimmons Seeds can cause intestinal obstruction and enteritis.
Pits from peaches and plums Can cause obstruction of the digestive tract.
Potato, rhubarb, and tomato leaves; potato and tomato stems Contain oxalates, which can affect the digestive, nervous, and urinary systems. This is more of a problem in livestock.
Raw eggs Contain an enzyme called avidin, which decreases the absorption of biotin (a B vitamin). This can lead to skin and hair coat problems. Raw eggs may also contain Salmonella.
Raw fish Can result in a thiamine (a B vitamin) deficiency leading to loss of appetite, seizures, and in severe cases, death. More common if raw fish is fed regularly.
Salt If eaten in large quantities it may lead to electrolyte imbalances.
String Can become trapped in the digestive system; called a "string foreign body."
Sugary foods Can lead to obesity, dental problems, and possibly diabetes mellitus.
Table scraps (in large amounts) Table scraps are not nutritionally balanced. They should never be more than 10% of the diet. Fat should be trimmed from meat; bones should not be fed.
Tobacco Contains nicotine, which affects the digestive and nervous systems. Can result in rapid heart beat, collapse, coma, and death.
Yeast dough Can expand and produce gas in the digestive system, causing pain and possible rupture of the stomach or intestines.

Answer 3

I am sure there is a big long list somewhere, but why feed a dog person food anyway? people shouldn't eat dog food, so why the other way round.

We are different species.

Dogs are dogs and people are people - which is where a lot of pet owners get confused...

Answer 4

Dog food is essentially the only food your dog will need. Dogs do not crave variety, they just want to eat. So, ANY food you give them they will likely eat. However, that doesn't mean you SHOULD give them any kind of food. Stick with dogfood, and add some rice if they need a "binder".

Answer 5

as far as i know, garlic is ok. it has been recommended for natural flea control.
however, grape skins can be very dangerous, and apple seeds. in a large dog likely they wouldn't be a problem, but a small dog could have serious consequences.

while this next item isn't food, it's important. only use buffered aspirin for pain control. NO ibuprofin or acetominaphen (advil or tylenol). enteric coated aspirin may not be effective because the coating won't dissolve, and plain aspirin is horribly hard on their stomachs.

Answer 6

Milk and all milk products. A dog's and cat's systems just aren't made to break down these foods properly. (Come to think of it, neither are humans. It's been proven that man gets no useable nutrition from milk products.)

Answer 7

There is alot of un needed fat in a human's diet. The dog's system was not made to deal with it. That causes obesity and other problems. It is just not good for them.

Answer 8

No human food is good for dogs. Just stick with Purina!

Answer 9

Actually, dogs should only eat dog food.

Answer 11

Too much cheese. I know a lot of dogs love it but it's bad for them if they have too much (a bit like us humans, I guess!)
