I have no problem giving a dog a piece of meat (and neither does my vet. She said she shares tiny bits of food with her dogs). I won't do sausage or anything like that though. The one time Jackson got really sick and was throwing up all night was after he ate wayyy too much sausage that had come off a greasy pizza. I really think that's what did him in. But he's never otherwise had a sensitive stomach and I think it's because I've always shared little things with him. I don't give fatty foods or anything. But yeah, chicken, steak, turkey, etc, I don't mind sharing at all in small quanities. Or popcorn every now and then and cheerios, etc. |
I share with mine too. Tiny pieces of the same things you share. She's been ok with it so far, but I don't over do it.
Mine got a piece of sausage that fell off a slice of pizza before. She got to it before I could, and took off like a greyhound! By the time I could get to her to get it out of her mouth, she had swallowed it! She loves it, but I wouldn't recommend giving it to them.
