Toxic foods
Also, never feed the following as these can be dangerous for dogs: corncobs, green unripe tomatoes, cooked bones, small pieces of raw bone, fatty trimmings/fatty foods, salt and roughly-cut vegetables.
Sugar on its own can cause obesity, dental issues, and even diabetes. This is in addition to the fact that many sweets contain artificial sweeteners, which can be harmful. So make sure your dog should not have any Tim Tams!
With minimal nutritional value, biscuits aren't the best option for your pet. But as an occasional snack, they pose few risks, unless your pet's health is already compromised.
The answer is yes but only in very, very, very tiny amounts. To be precise, dogs can eat Vegemite in small quantities and only on occasion. You might snack on it daily, but your darling dog shouldn't.
Yes, dogs can eat cheese. In fact, cheese is often a great training tool, especially for puppies.
Milk is a safe treat in small quantities. A few tablespoons of cow's milk or goat's milk on an occasional basis can be a nice reward for your dog. But, you should probably hold off on offering your dog an entire bowl in one sitting, as it can cause unpleasant reactions, including diarrhea, vomiting, and loose stools.
Can most dogs eat yogurt? Yes, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they should. While yogurt is not toxic to dogs, many canines might have trouble digesting it because it contains lactose. And plenty of pups have trouble with foods that contain lactose, such as milk.
White potatoes belong to the nightshade family of vegetables, which includes tomatoes; like tomatoes, raw potatoes contain solanine, a compound that is toxic to some dogs. However, cooking a potato reduces the levels of solanine. If you do feed your dog a potato, it should be baked or boiled, with nothing added to it.
Unfortunately, although it may be tempting to share your cone with your four-legged friend, it's best to avoid giving ice cream to dogs.
Dogs can have pasta if they're not suffering from sensitivity to grains or wheat allergy. But keep in mind that they won't get much nutritional value out of this food.
In addition to the issue of lactose, another problem with cheese for dogs is its high fat content. Feeding your dog fatty foods on a regular basis can lead them to gain an unhealthy amount of weight and can even cause obesity, which can in turn, lead to other health problems.
The short answer to the question “can dogs eat bread?” is yes. Dogs can safely eat bread in much the same way as humans—in moderation. Plain white and wheat bread are generally safe for dogs to eat, provided they don't have any allergies, and it usually does not cause any stomach upset.
Yes, dogs can eat bananas. In moderation, bananas are a great low-calorie treat for dogs. They're high in potassium, vitamins, biotin, fiber, and copper. They are low in cholesterol and sodium, but because of their high sugar content, bananas should be given as a treat, not part of your dog's main diet.
Is Weetabix for dogs? No it is not. It is a tasty and nutritious breakfast cereal for humans and is at the more healthy end of the spectrum for human breakfast products. This does not however make breakfast cereals good dog foods, to your dog they may be tasty but many other human foods can be toxic to dogs.
The answer is yes. Rice is an ingredient sometimes found in commercial dog foods. Many pet owners feed white rice to their sick dog. One of the reasons white rice is the chosen grain for a dog with an upset stomach is that it's easy to digest, quick to prepare, and low in fiber.
Eggs should be cooked before given to a dog. Cook or boil eggs plain without oil, butter, salt, seasoning, spices, or other additives. It doesn't matter how your dog likes their eggs — sunny side up, scrambled, or hard boiled — as long as they are cooked.
But can dogs eat tuna? The answer is no. You shouldn't feed your canine companion the saltwater fish because it could lead to a number of different health problems.
Are carrots safe for me to feed my dog?” While some of the vegetables we love are unsafe to feed our dogs, carrots are a perfectly safe and nutritious treat for your dog.
Honey is safe for dogs to eat in small quantities. It contains natural sugars and small amounts of vitamins and minerals. It is also used as a sweetener in many foods and beverages.
Like with un-toasted bread, toast is fine for your dog to eat in moderation (provided they don't have any allergies). Again, it doesn't add any nutritional benefit and there should be no butter on the toast.
According to veterinarians, dogs are more resistant to persin than other animals, but that doesn't mean avocados are 100% safe for your dog to consume. Persin is present in avocado fruit, pits, leaves, and the actual plant, so all of these parts are potentially poisonous to your dog.
