| Food Coloring Safe? Hi There Wondering if anyone knows if food coloring (the liquid kind you buy at the store) is safe for dogs? I'm just wondering because I wanted to make some Christmas themed dog biscuits and I thought it would be cute to add some green food color to the dough to have green Christmas trees. Anyone know if this is okay? Thanks for your help Yorkville |

| RE: Food Coloring Safe Oh okay, great. Thanks for the info. I did a google search on "dog food coloring" and alot of stuff came up that said you shouldn't feed your dog food that listed food coloring as an ingredient, but I guess that's different? Not sure |

| I dont know maybe its because food they would be eating all the time and that would not be good. The candy canes I bought have red coloring.
