Feeding My Dogs Watermelon.

Mine hears someone at the chopping board and he runs there.
He gets veggies, some fruit.. everything in very small pieces and moderation. He goes crazy with blue berries, he even picks the ripe ones from the trees.
Never give him meat or chicken, just veggies.
 
Plus you may end up growing watermelons where the poop lands. :p My brother's dog planted roma tomatoes in the back yard.

Are you serious about the poopmato in your bro's backyard? A tomato plant just popped up in the middle of front yard and I was wondering where the heck it came from. This would make sense.
 
I hope I don't find out that it has a negative effect on their little doggy systems........
I have also fed them carrots.

Anything special about your animals food intake?

I didn't read the responses, but the only things I really know about are grapes, raisins, chocolate, and raw garlic.

I killed my best friend, Logan (a Rhodesian Ridgeback), because I didn't know they couldn't eat grapes.

And boy, did he loved grapes!

My little Silky Terrier has the same response to the chopping board.

Apples, carrots, pears - the little fucker will even eat kale! :laughing
 
I have fed every dog I've owned, some garlic. It is a natural flea and tick repellent.
No onions, just a bit of chopped garlic in their food during the summer months.
 
My brother's Golden mix likes watermelon, but we do pick out the seeds. Her usual is a couple of handfuls of high-end dry food per day, plus various treats and table scraps in moderate amounts. Only things that have ever distressed her are rocks (yep, she ate some rocks as a pup) and cat food (HORRIBLE STENCH FROM HELL).

One of the four cats who own us grooves on celery tops, carrots, bananas, and strawberries. The others stick to dry food and tooth-cleaning treats.

All five eat cat-grass when their stomachs are troubling them. I figured out that we had an area of scummy standing water in the corner of the yard when I saw the Golden and our oldest cat dining together on the cat-grass.

(And it goes without saying, but fresh water in a clean bowl makes for happy pets.)
 
Plus dogs are relatives of the bear. At some point they were probably omnivores.

Huh? The dog is as closely related to a bear as a cat is to a walrus.

They are both carnivores (as in the order Carnivora). It really has little bearing on things.

From day one, establish yourself as pack leader. My males at my house, both intact, eat, bathe, play, etc together non-stop. They're never seperated. Ever. And not one.single.fight.ever.


What's the point of not neutering your dogs?
