| apples are good.... (without the skin) i have given toby a grape to play with (again without the skin) ..... it is important not to feed them too much fruit because they can get loose stools easily from it |

| Hi, i feed mitzy and molly pears and apples (without the skin) Be careful with grapes and raisons as they contain toxins that can seriously harm our babies! There is a thread somewhere of toxic foods.....if you cant find it, pm me and il send it to you Tina xx |

| Yeah seconded with the grapes - some toxins can be bad for dogs, even though I know they love to play with grapes!! |

| Oh yes Bubbles acquired his on his own too! He ate them and nothing bad happened but you know, onec I heard that they may be bad for him I was just extra careful. Shame because watching him bounce the grape used to make me laugh. |

| Thank you all so much for giving me that advice. I was aware of grapes and raisins but was not sure of other fruit. I wanted to feed my dog some pear and peaches today, but wanted to make sure it was ok first.I will most definately look at those links posted, because i wanna put a good site in my favorites so i have easy access to it. I wanna make sure i don't harm my baby!!! Once again, thank you all so much!!!

| Citric fruits are not good fot our babies...and like it was said, it should be offered as a treat and not as a part of the meal. You can try baby carrots, they love it!!! |
