Dog owners who want to make homemade dog food for their pets can consult the new article on JustDoggie listing 8 “people” foods safe for dogs.
While typical dog-safe foods such as meat are included, the list goes beyond what is expected to list some unusual homemade doggie treats such as sweet potato, frozen watermelon and pumpkin seeds.
The full list of people foods that are dog-safe can be found on the website: http://www.justdoggie.com/8-foods-for-humans-pit-bulls/
JustDoggie had this to say about the article:
“Starting with safe, wholesome ingredients is an important first step when making homemade dog food. Dogs do not have the ability to discern whether or not a food is poisonous, and will eat many things that are bad for them such as chocolate and macadamia nuts. By relying on known safe foods for dogs to eat, people who want to avoid processed or pre-packaged dog food can do so without worrying they will harm their dogs. Because so many foods that are safe for humans can make dogs sick, understanding which kinds of foods are safe and which to avoid is important for every dog owner, regardless of whether or not they make their own dog food.”
Other people foods that JustDoggie lists as problematic for dogs include:
Bread dough
Avocado
Onions
Grapes
Coffee
Artificial Sweetener
Pet owners should avoid giving any of the above to dogs as these types of foods can cause serious illness whether served cooked or raw.
With most foods in general, it is better to err on the side of caution – for those foods where safety for dogs is unknown, the family veterinarian can provide more insight.
