"People" Foods Destroy Your Dog's Health
Joshua Hacken
Most dog owners naturally love their dogs and are usually cautious with what they feed their dogs. However, there has always been a common mistake made by them in that they will sometimes feed their dogs with "people" foods. All too often, they think that doing this will not hurt their dogs.
It is not a matter if you seldom or often give your dog "people" food to eat; these "people" foods are still unsafe. They are fatal to your dog's health.
You should always feed your dog carefully. Verify that the food you are giving him is safe from any toxins. You can achieve this by reading the dog food labels.
Let's take a look at some of the considerations we should be discussing when it comes to feeding your dog table food:
- Acidic foods are bad for your dog and should not be offered to him. Acidic foods can destroy his GI track and eventually result in illnesses such as panting, restlessness, vomiting and panting.
- Grapes may result in the kidney failure of your dog, so make sure you don't feed him this fruit.
- Onions have a negative effect on the balance of red blood cells in your dog's body. So stay away from this food also.
- Coffee has been known to increase the heart rate of your dog. This can result in your dog suffering from GI track problems and seizures.
- Ibuprofen is the second leading cause of canine poisoning in the world. Your dog absolutely likes the scent of this drug, so be sure to put it away out of your dog's reach.
- The most popular treat people want to give their dogs is chocolate. This is a big no-no! As with coffee, chocolate contains caffeine that will elevate your dog's heart rate and can promote seizures.
- Always be sure to keep your animal away from rat poison. This is the world leader in canine poisoning and can be prevented if we take care to ensure that the rat traps are not where your dog can get at them.
Feed your dog properly and leave the "people" food to the people. Select a dog food that contains proper nutrition, is balanced and is prepared just for canines. If you have any doubts about what you should be feeding to your dog, check with your veterinarian for a professional opinion and then follow what your he says to the leather. Even an occasional something from the table can be poison to your beloved dog.
