Are hotdogs ok for them to eat ? My yorkie Leo won't eat dog food or dog treats .... so my mom started giving him beef hotdogs....... is this ok ? Please let me know what you guys think and if it is fine for him to be eating hotdogs mixed in with his normal Royal Canin dog food.... thanks :) |

Little bits of hot dog every once in a while are not terrible, but I would never make it a daily thing. Buy some wet dog food to mix in with the dry food! ;) If we eat chicken or turkey or some kind of meat for dinner, Jackson typically gets it mixed in with his dry food because he's spoiled! ;) Haha but it's not an every day occurrence. |
Recently I read that hot dogs, bologna, and ham can give a dog pancreatitis. Don't remember where I read this. |
Welcome to YT!! I wouldn't give my girls hot dogs...there's alot of junk in them (sorry all you hot dog eaters!!) I don't even eat hot dogs..You really don't want him to get used to table food...As one of the posters has said ...you don't want him to get pancreatitis...this is very painful for them and very costly for you. You really don't want a sick furbaby.. |
no hot dogs too high in fat and yorkies are prone to pancreatitis which i caused from high fatty foods |
No because hotdogs are indigestible and it's likely the reason he won't eat dog food...is because "people" food tastes better. |
No I wouldn't give hot dogs as part of his food. I do however use leftover hot dogs cut into small pieces for training treats and I think that's fine. Just not something you should use everyday. Just like us humans should only eat hot dogs occasionally. |
Sam gets lil bites of white turkey meat hot dogs. We dont eat regular hot dogs, always turkey ones. |
ok enough hot dog ... do you have any food brand recommendations? we tried cesar and chef michaels and grandmas puppy plate but he wont eat any of these... any suggestions ? sometimes he won't eat at all all day and he goes to his dog bowl and will sniff it and walk away... haha im a first dog owner.. |

We have been on the natural balance roll for awhile. They've been good recently as I restrict their bully sticks and have cut back on treats. They get finicky every couple of weeks but then I hold my ground and then they eat again. I do mix something in with it...veggies/sometimes some meat. Good luck! |
Does anyone have any suggestions of wet food too ? |
Try the natural balance rolls--they might work for you and they are a good quality dog food. |
