I forgot about apple seeds. Apples are actually a great treat but the seeds are a no no. I think many seeds contain cyanide (I believe this is the problem with peach pits as well (along with the fact that they don't break down and can cause intestinal blockage.

I know I sure wouldn't want to pass a peach pit... ouch!

Who would have thought giving a dog chewing gum would be hazardous to their health? Next you'll be telling me to decrease their intake of cake.

That's also why you should core an apple before juicing it.

Give one tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide (use a syringe or dropper) and wait 10 minutes. if the dog doesn't barf, give another tablespoon. It should be effective within a very short time.

Cool, I've always wanted to know how to make a dog yammy! (seriously though, it could come in handy to save it's life)

Our boy dog had pumpkin in his diet for a while; we were trying to get him to eat more. He liked the pumpkin but was otherwise uninterested in his food.

If it helps their glands and their poop, I may have to start our girl on it. Thanks for the tip!
