We feed our Miniature Schnauzer, Phoebe Buffay, Authority dry dog food (Petsmarts brand). It has no animal by-products or cereal. We mix a little hot water in it. 1/2 cup in the morning, and 1/2 cup in the evening. She weighs 18-20#. An occasional cherry tomato, she loves 'em. No human "scraps" per se, but an occasional small bite of leftover meat.

Oh, and every day for lunch, she get 1/3th of a medium Mealbone. It's actually a meal replacement product that's supposed to be good for their teeth. She's a very good pet.

best regards, lm

This is onion toxicity info. in pets from a scientific paper. But the info. can be found in most pet care books also.

I feed my dog pratically bits of anything, but I'm careful to make sure she doesn't eat anything like grapes, which are bad for dogs. And I would strongly suggest you don't let your dog eat any corn. Goes right through their systems.(EWW!). I let my dog eat cheese, carrots, peanut butter(slather it on a bone, throw the bone on the porch and it will keep them occupied for 10-15 minutes. Do it when their really bugging you.) I also love to feed my dog popcorn though.

Thanks, I really appreciate being able to read that.

I hope it helped. I wasn't sure whether to post scientific info. or just googled info. I just found the article really quickly, but I can find more info. if you need it.

Our pup was originally part of the Seeing Eye program. She was later rejected from the training program (too scared of everything), so we adopted her.

Because they're working dogs, the S.E. program asks you not to give the dogs "people food". I guess they don't want the dog to be tempted by a great steak in a restaurant if he is working and supposed to be alongside their blind master???

Anyway, for that reason, we started our dog on Iams (it's actually my parents' pup - I just love her to much to refer to her as anything but mine). And we've kept her on that.

They use "poultry" flavored toothpaste with her and she LOVES it. Don't know how they got on to that.........Aside from what my niece drops on the floor, that's pretty much all she gets. Oh, yeah - peanut butter for pills and her all time favorite - icecubes! (does that count as people food?)

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.

      Gluten free stuff

      By Tammy Pedler · Posted

      As soon as I see gluten free I read the labels. I always find stuff that I cannot have on the products them selfs. Like spices, when the labels says  everything listed and then after like say garlic salt then the next thing is spices. When it says that that can contain wheat and other things I can’t have..

      Do some people with Celiacs develop hypoglycemia?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While hypoglycemia isn't a direct, classic symptom of celiac disease, it's something that some individuals with well-managed celiac disease report, and there may be a few plausible explanations for why the two could be connected. The most common theory involves continued damage to the gut lining or nutrient deficiencies (like chromium or magnesium) that can impair the body's ability to regulate blood sugar effectively, even after gluten is removed. Another possibility is delayed stomach emptying (gastroparesis) or issues with the hormones that manage blood sugar release, like glucagon. Since your doctors are puzzled, it may be worth discussing these specific mechanisms with a gastroenterologist or endocrinologist. You are certainly not alone in experiencing this puzzling complication, and it highlights how celiac disease can have long-term metabolic effects beyond the digestive tract.

      Ibuprofen

      By trents · Posted

      Paracetamol, aka, acetaminophen (Tylenol) just does not do anything for me as far as pain relief. It does help with fevers, though.
