What shouldn't we feed your dog?

Garlic is also VERY good for fleas and is in many foods/treats.

Yup. Garlic is actually good for your dogs in moderation. Excessive amounts can be bad. But if you look at the best dog food, most have a little garlic in it

Hmm, Jasper eats raw fish, raw eggs, and lots of table scraps. I even give him the occasional fat trimming, though I know to be careful with those.

My vet keeps turkey flavored baby food on hand to distract scared doggies while they're getting vaccinations.

Darn! Logan so looks forward to her cocktail hour with a ciggie and glass of wine!

Grapes???? Yikes! Except for cereal, it's the only people food she loves! (ok..and licking the ice cream bowl). A few seedless ones get tossed and shoved and rolled then enjoyed. I guess I'll have to eat them in the closet or bathroom now.

I always sprinkled a dash of garlic on Cody's food cause I heard it helped keep the fleas off, and he never had any. And a bit of coffee (with cream please) was his fave (as he read the morning paper)

Geesh..now I'm trying to make light cause now I'm upset.

The seeds are the poisonous part of the grape so seedless grapes should be fine. If you have a big dog than a grape or two with seeds shouldn't be a problem.

Ir isn't just the grapes with seeds -- all grapes have an unknown toxin that can harm dogs.

Grapes and raisins have both been shown to result in potentially fatal kidney failure in dogs and cats, although the underlying toxin has not been identified. Green or purple grapes; organically grown or commercially grown; seeds or seedless; grapes grown in many different areas of the country; and raisins from those grapes--all have been found to be harmful. What we do know is that the toxin is not related to the use of pesticides or due to zinc or lead in the fruit. Fungal elements have not been implicated either. As of today, the toxic element remains a mystery, but it's effects are all too real.

Oh yes grapes are poisonous to dogs. Chocolate can be too, but usually in larger amounts. I think that most people think that the littlest bite of chocolate will do them harm, but that's not necessarily true.

Yes, when I was a child my mom would tell me, "Don't you feed her chocolate." Whenever I would have some sort of chocolate so I figured that if I gave her the smallest amount she would get sick, but I learned later that it's the large amounts not just a drop.

my dogs get fed raw fish, raw eggs as well. Also once a month they eat cooked rice. Still see no problem about it.

I've never heard of garlic being okay for dogs. My neighbours Lab died because she ate a clove of it.

A whole clove can be dangerous, but a little is fine and can actually be beneficial to their health.

We've fed Sprinkles (who will be 9 in December) Raw fish,milk, and people food all her life. When she was a puppy she ate raw eggs mixed with honey.
We also put a little bit of garlic on the dogs food to control fleas and ticks.
