Question

I hav a Pomeranian and a baby lab, what are the things dogs cannot have!!!???

Answer 1

People Please:
chicken paprika, roast duck, chili, pizza are examples of "people food"
RAW chicken, beef, lamb, liver, gizzards, eggs are examples of food that is NOT PEOPLE FOOD!!!!!!!!
If it's cooked and has spices on it then it's people food because that's how humans usually eat it.
If you want to see things that are really bad for your dog, check the label on the commercial dog foods on the market today. food fractures, animal digest ( reads chicken poop)
artificial color and flavor?
cooked bones>bad
raw bones> O.K.
onions>BAD BAD BAD!!

good luck

Answer 2

I had a cat that did this after my husband & I got married and I moved in. My husband had always free-fed (left food out all the time) his dog. My cat ended up developing urinary problems including bladder stones as a result. The bladder stones had to be surgically removed. We had to stop leaving the dog food out & only feed the dog 2 times a day. Dog food is formulated for a dog's nutritional needs including their ph level, which directly effects the urine. A dog's ph level is different from a cat so you should not let your cat eat the dog food. Please get in the habit of only feeding your cat twice a day as well as the dog. They will learn to be on a schedule. Whatever they don't eat after 20 min should be picked up. They will learn to eat the food when it's placed in front of them. This should also help your cat lose some weight. Free feeding is really not good for any pet because they can overeat. It is not as convenient for you but it is much healthier for your pets to be on a schedule.

Answer 3

Be selective in what people food you allow them to have. Don't give any meat bones, avoid pork, grapes, raisins and onions. If you give them oranges (my dog loves them) make sure all the skin and seeds are removed. Offer the oranges as a treat. Also give other fruits and vegetables as treats, my dog loves Apples, melon, broccoli, cauliflower, peas, carrots - even Brussels sprouts. For their regular meal they should be eating a high quality dog food. Following a bout of colitis which required my dog to eat boiled chicken and rice she decided that she ONLY wanted chicken or chicken and rice. Unable to get her to eat her kibble I mixed chicken or chicken and rice with her kibble. When I boil the chicken I keep the broth and use it like a gravy. She gets what she likes, but the mixture makes it impossible for her to eat it without eating the nutritional dog food. I discussed what I was doing with the vet and got her approval. My dog is happy and healthy. Just make sure if you feed chicken or turkey you only give white meat, no fat, skins, dark meat or bones.

Answer 4

there is a reason they call it dog food. people food in general is not good for dogs. certain things are worse than others such as bananas,grapes,onions and dark chocolate but animals should not receive human food on a regular basis. we give our dog raw carrots as treats and an occasional something special but that's it. if you don't want to risk their health, stick to dog food.

Answer 5

Stop feeding them human food.
Dogs have to eat dog food because dog food has minerals and vitamins and whatnot that dogs need to survive.

My dog also ate human food, and she had to get surgery because she was not provided with things she needs to help her body with human food, now she has to eat medicine every day, twice a day, all because we fed her human food.

Please change your dogs human food into dog food. Ask a vet for the best dog food that you can buy.
Do it before your dog gets sick and you will regret it.

Answer 6

well it's best if you wouldn't feed the human food. it can endanger their health but giving it to them once in a while is ok. but try most part to not feed them human food. dog food is speical made for dogs needs. to help them with their body.
