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?)

      Son's legs shaking

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin. He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her...

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.
