once a week as a treat I scamble eggs with a bit of garlic, salt, top it with cheese then mix in the dry dog food....the babies they go nuts when they know eggs are coming. |
Eggs Here is my question. I have given mine scrambled eggs once or twice, which they loved. But, once I started doing that, I had to reintroduce their dry food because they definitely did not want to eat just their regular food anymore. So, I decided not to start up on the "adding" stuff to their regular diet. I do give them green beans and sliced apples for "treats" but they know it is when they fetch their ball, so it doesn't seem to bother their regular eating routine. So, how do you deal with this? Also, have any long time owners out there have an opinion? My yorkie book says to avoid such habits because long term, a yorkie's delicate digestive system is affected. I haven't had mine that long but don't want to do something that will affect their health long term. |
My dogs have all had a big variety of foods but I don't feed just dried complete for their main meals. They have dried complete for breakfast then egg, cottage cheese, mashed potatoes, tripe or any in season vegetables etc for lunch. Then dried complete + tinned meat for their dinner. And a kong filled with cottage cheese, boiled liver, peanut butter and mashed potatoes then frozen for their supper. They have a bit of almost anything we eat as long as it's not bad for them - I'm a strong believer it makes their tummies less liable to problems as they get used to changes etc. I have done this for the past 22 years with all sorts of breeds and it never occured to me to treat Duncan any different he is still a terrier dog which is what I have most experience with so he gets treated the same as all my others have. |
When my babies are off their food for some reason-dental work, upset tummy or such, I always make scrambled eggs for them. They love them and I have fed like this for over 15 years.. |

Mine get a little scrambled egg whites in their kibble when I cook b/fast, but I have bought organic free range eggs since I saw a special on 20/20 about the chicken farms. UGH! I thought I was going to be sick after seeing that. Anyway, regardless of what kinds of eggs you use, you should always always rinse the shell before you crack it. The bacteria on the outside of the shell gets on the egg and then thats how we can get it. |
