Please, please, please don't feed others' dogs until you know if they can tolerate your 'treat', vets, instructors, family and friends and others!!!!! It's not always a kindness in the long run!

I think it comes from a good place not meant to cause issues. I would think if you were going to a trainer or something that you would start off in your very first meeting saying your dog has health issues and such. The only one I have issues with is Callie because she has IBD but Callie won't take anything from strangers or other people.
