    Are you serious!!! That is so funny. I have learned with the dried papaya my pets are so much more responsive. Eevee is picky about her heartworm medication. I will use this technique. I love the vision of that little dog and the banana.

    How funny

    So here is a good question.What treat does your dog absolutely adore? Everyone? Eevee and bucky love pig ears??? I hate the way they smell.

    And of course papaya

    Oh yea I forgot about cantalope. That would be good for rehydrating a pet on a hot day.

    I have a new puppy named Kujo. He is only 4 pounds and he was begging me for some orange so I gave him a piece, and he loves them more than chips!

    Old but its been dug up. So why not add some useful information since people are reading this. Grapes can be toxic to dogs, but in unknown quantities. Some large dogs can get sick from a few grapes while some smaller dogs can eat twice as many before getting sick.

    Here is a good site that tells you some of the foods that are not good for dogs
    Pet Education.Com

    As for what my three like, Roxey loves watermelon, Bon apples and Huney...well she's not really a fruit kinda girl

    Huney, Bon & Simba-missed so very much

    When I first got my dog Chilton (or Chillie as we call him) he wouldn't eat dog food to save his life. After two weeks of sheer madness I broke down and started buying him whole Rotisserie chickens, cutting them up, removing all the bones and feeding him that. Needless to say he loved it. In fact, to this day, if he needs to take a pill I just stick it in a piece of chicken and he never knows what hit him....Earlier today I was eating an orange and decided to give him a slice. To my amusement, he devoured it. However, I suspect he'd eat sauteed shit if the opportunity presented itself (lol)...A tip for anyone whose pooch is a finicky eater: try Merrick brand dog food. They have several enticing flavors including Chilton's favorite "Smothered Comfort" which is whole chicken thighs (Slow-cooked to make the bones mushy), sweet potatoes, blueberries, carrots and Granny Smith apples. It looks so good that I've, right hand to God, been tempted to taste it....it costs about $2.00 a can though but what other choice do I have? I'm trying to get him a modeling job though so he can pay some bills. BTW, PLEASE vote for Chilton R. Jones in the Old Navy mascot contest!!!

    Please provide me with some information as to why tomatoes are bad?

    My three dogs and many other raw fed dogs eat tomatoes almost daily.

    - Tomatoes can cause tremors and heart arrhythmias. Tomato plants and the most toxic, but tomatoes themselves are also unsafe. (All parts of the plant except the tomato itself are also poisonous to humans.)

    3. Tomatoes and tomato plants. These contain atropine, which can cause dilated pupils, tremors, and heart arrhythmias. The highest concentration of atropine is found in the leaves and stems of tomato plants, followed by unripe (green) tomatoes, followed by ripe tomatoes. So if you have the good fortune to have a tomato plant or two on your stoop, be sure your dog doesn’t nibble on it, and it’s safest not to feed him tomatoes either.

    -------



    Although canines can eat Potato and Tomato, Do Not let them ingest the leaves or stems. Contain oxalates, which can affect the digestive, nervous, and urinary systems. This is more of a problem in livestock.

    As for tomato: Some holistic practioners and vets believe the tomatoes can cause tremors and heart arrhythmias. Some don't believe that. But everybody agrees the vine is toxic.

    From what I understand the only poisonous parts (in high levels) are the roots and leaves. The fruit itself is fine.

    Tomatoes or tomato juice is also known to eliminate brown spots on the lawn. It is also on many high quality kibble ingredient lists.
