i don't feed her chocolate. that would obviously be wrong. she's full grown, not a puppy at all.
she gets excited just seeing me take out the butter. i think she really likes them. should i cut her off cold turkey?

As long as is not her main diet and it isnt giving her tummy trouble she should be fine. Make sure she doesnt start refusing here food in order to get treats. She needs to be geting all her nutritional needs fulfilled with her regular dog food before she gets full on cookies. Just watch her weight, as she gets older or when she gets fixed her metabolism may slow down. Good luck

Chocolate is poisonous and some nuts will do great damage with non reversable harm. Bad diet will shorten your dogs life, just as it shortens yours. Dogs die of many of the same things that people do and cookies are full of fat and sugar and a diet full of that will cause your dog all sorts of problems. If you love your dog, feed her a good diet so that she has a long healthy life.

Chocolate is bad for dogs, and I don't know what cookies do for them. I would imagine that too much of anything is not a good thing. I wouldn't allow her to do that. But your a baker and she gets to eat your scraps, lucky dog!!!!!
I love cookies I will gladly help your dog better their health by eating the cookies for her......

Pancreatitis, Diabetes..... and "getting fat" creates a million problems of its own. Dogs who are overweight tend to blow their Cruciate ligament ( which is not a cheap surgery ). Its will be harder on her heart, especially when she gets older. You can also buy really healthy doggie cookies. She will enjoy them just as much!

I am a baker too! It depends how many stuff falls. just make sure not to feed her brown chocolate. Dogs can eat white chocolate.

It depends...do any of the cookies have chocolate in them? Chocolate causes heart worms in dogs, so that is a no no. Also, she could get worms from the raw eggs, but that is not as big a threat as the chocolate.

a dogs stomach cannot absorb the amount of sugar in cookies ans will most likely lead to a fast heart and possibly heart attack

obesity causes health problems in itself.
Dogs can also get:
pancreatis
diabetes
bladder/kidney stones
Im not sure if they get other diet-related ilnesses like people, but I dont see why not?
Cholesterol
blood pressure
heart disease

Dogs can get heart problems and diabetes like humans can. Dogs also can get pancreaitis and die from it from a bad diet.
