Can table scraps make your chow mix dog scratch like crazy?

Answer 1

yes table scraps are bad for dog! for one they might be allergic to something in the food. for the second reason it will make them over weight which can cause heart deasise. ANSWER #2 You can feed some human food, I'm talking about a healthy pet, not a puppy or sick dog. Cooked green vegetables in moderation added to their food, no corn, pieces of beef, chicken, turkey, no bones !! Breads sparingly, cooked oatmeal, cooked white rice, cooked brown rice, potatoes are ok as long as they are not loaded up with butter or sour cream. Potatoes are ok, with the exception: the potatoe family you have to watch for the sugar content, especially if your pet is a diabetic. No sugar coated items, no donuts, cookies etc, these will all cause problems if not now, it will as time passes. No mustard, ketchup, or mayo, Miracle Whip, no lunchmeats unless they are sugar free. I think its better to add some good human food to dog food especially the dry dog foods, but remember to feed less dogfood when you use human food.

Answer 2

yes table food is bad for cats! it can= death, Heart disease, obesity If you just think you can feed your cat table scraps the above poster is correct, but if you feed them good dry food (some people also add some canned cat food) and you are eating chicken, turkey or fish, you could give them a little tiny piece on their plate for a treat. My cat Molly doesn't care for people food and just prefers to eat her dry/wet cat food.

Answer 3

Never. it makes them very sick Actually most good food that humans eat is fine for dogs as well. However it is generally considered bad to feed a dog directly from the table as this will teach them to beg and pester you while you are eating. If you are going to give a dog left over food from your meals you should do it after you are done eating and put the food in the dogs dish. Some dogs will become fat from eating human food if they do not receive enough exercise so that is something else to be aware of.

Answer 4

Answer 5

No it should not make your dog itch. You should check with a veterinarian because your pet might have irritated skin.
