I've found that Lefty likes berries (strawberries, blueberries, grapes), especially when they're frozen. I wonder, though, how much might be "too much" to give him--I don't want to upset his stomach. Anyone have any idea? He's about 45 lbs.
Thanks!

Smilla, I would love to see Lefty munching on those berries!!! I think with things like that, a little probably goes a long way, but I have no real basis for that thought. I'd just give him a little at a time. That way it will always be a special treat for him!!!!
I just remembered when I re-read your post that grapes in large quantities can be toxic for dogs, so I would definitely use those sparingly. My Lilly loves them too.
Smilla,
It's great to see you posting again. I guess I feel as Logan
does. A little goes a long way. I've never gotten mine to eat
fruits, but I don't think a few would hurt them.

I never new that grapes were bad for dogs until someone
posted on Pet Talk.
Yesturday my Aunt read in the paper about
grapes, onions and raisons being bad for dogs.
I wonder if it is the skin that is bad or the whole grape?

Thanks, folks--I post a question, and then get tied up and don't thank the ones who respond for weeks! I appreciate the responses.

Nanook picks berries right off the bush. he curls his lips back & ever so gently plucks them with his tiny front teeth. It's so cute. lol
To be on the safe side, I'd just give him a few a few times a day. Just watch his stools (and his body language) to make sure they are still normal & he is still acting normal. If his stolls become loose or very hard & dry I'd cut back a little if they are normal you can try to slowly increase the amount you give him.
Soar high & free my sweet fur angels. I love you Nanook & Raustyk... forever & ever.
