Garlic and onions are toxic in LARGE amounts. A clove of garlic used in a bag of dog food is not really a LARGE amount, but again, it really depends on your dog. In other words, you all need to know what is poisonous/dangerous to a dog's system and never feed them those things. Don't ever compare a dog to a human being. It is not about strengthening their immune system. Some food that we, humans, enjoy are TOXIC, pure POISON, for dogs. What you feed them can kill them either slowly and painfully for the rest of their lives or quicky shutting down their organs and killing them instantly. Please feed your dog natural, organic, healthy food so that you can enjoy a long, happy life with your four legged companions. Also, unlike some humans, if you give a dog a inch of love, they give you a mile back. Hmmm – please note that the beer in dog food is non-alcoholic. Garlic and onions are toxic in LARGE amounts.

but well actually going back to the topic i come from a big family and have first hand experience that a little bit of everything is good as it builds up immunity and your immune system.i mean think about it; when you get an immunisation done the injection has a tiny bit of the disease or virus in it so your body can build up immunity towards it.

and further more if you have a deicate stomach or no someone who does and the food would upset your or that particular persons stomach well then surely it would be bad for the dog too. like for example i ate a lot of garlic everyday for a week and had an alergic reaction which is what we would guess would happen as it is quite strong. furthermore, i ate a big tub of ice cream once and was foaming at the mouth not to mention the tummy pain which is what we’d guess would happen. the list can go on…..

Dogs dont know, what is bad and good for them, that is why we here, humans with brains, well at least a few have some. If you can not afford to give your dog good food and only tablescrab you should not have a dog. Even the stores like W-Mart, Publix, Winn-Dixie have some good food you can afford, you dont need to eat like a King and smoke like an Idiot, share with your loved pet whatever you have on money so he can be healthy also and does not have Belly pain, where and who does not care. A dog can not speak he is not a human beeing so you are there to keep care and if you dont know what to do, go on-line Google anything, asked a Petshop Associate or a Vet.

Period. End of subject. You are ignorant and dangerous, and you will have a pet die an agonizing death. I'm half tempted to trace this back and find your real name and address so the SPCA can get animal control to come take whatever animals currently live in your home. Yeah, they'll probably die in a shelter, but at least that's a humane death. You're disgusting.

I don't understand why people insist on feeding their dogs table food or scraps. It's not healthy for them, even if it isn't outright poisonous. What is wrong with buying top quality (or making if you really feel like it) top quality dog food and feeding them that (in reasonable amounts)? They will be healthier and live longer as a result - and you won't have to fork over as much cash for vet bills. GB, I agree.

I use to toss over the little ones to him and he would catch them in his mouth. He still comes around today and now i'm 13. And i do not feed him any more... only like hot dogs. =].

Worst that could happen is it gets a bad case of pooping. However, it's just my opinion. Still, it's better to feed your dogs safe food.

It's okay to TRY giving food to dogs that are not known to harm their lives. As in they will still live if their bodies react negatively towards the given food. (Hodge) You have a point there.

Some things may affect this dog one way but a thousand other dogs may have no problems with it. It also works the other way what would kill thousands of dogs there are some that could eat it all day long. So I really don't know but feed your dog what it likes or you will allow him to have if it makes him sick you know not to do it anymore. If it kills them I guess you really know you shouldn't have fed them that and should probably dig a hole and have a small ceremony in the memory of the beloved friend that has passed.
