What "People Food" do you feed your Yorkies? I've been very cautious to not allow her to eat anything besides her very healthy diet. Now I would like to know what you ladies also feed your dogs beyond that. What's safe for them, what's good for them, what's just tasty for them! I've heard of Yogurt and Cottage Cheese. What else can we feed her as a "treat" ? I have almost 20 years of experience in cat nutrition...but as far as dogs go, I'm still learning a lot! Thanks ladies!!! :):D |
Yes, along with organic cottage cheese and plain organic yogurt, Rio eats baby carrots, apples, fuyu persimmons, pineapple, and bananas - all cut into bite size pieces. Please DO NOT FEED your dog grapes - poisonous to dogs! |
Great thread - I am anxious to read the responses. I am a new mommy, but will admit to occasionally giving Zoey fresh cooked chicken and raw carrot slivers (tho not too much carrot on one day or she gets loose stools). She is fed her Royal Canin 33 and gets Wellness puppy treats (in little pieces) for training. ~Denise |
Molly has to lose some weight so i have cut down on her kibble and add some cooked veg. peas, carrots,green beans,celery, cauli, broccoli..she eats it all...and she is slowly but surely losing weight. :thumbup: |
I do alot of fresh fruits and veggies. No grapes, raisins, corn, onions just to name a few. Mine really love bananas and oranges. |
CHERRIOS! Also an occassional egg. Some cheese. Lowfat cottage cheese as mentioned. Boiled boneless, skinless chicken breast. That's about it. :) |
Mine love frozen watermellon chunks in the summer, we also do carrots, steamed greenbeans, apple chunks, dried cranberries, I used to make a pumpkin treat that they loved, steamed whitefish for Copper, they like sweetpotato (cooked and mashed), and they also get a little cheese here and there:) |
Sometimes I give Toby a "bite" of grilled chicken but I try to stick to just dog food. I give him Royal Canin Yorkie and Benefull.One time I caught my mother-in-law giving him choclate and well...let's just say she NEVER did that again.:D |
I give mine some bites of banana and cheerios in the morning. In the evening their favorite bedtime treat is egg noodles. I boil up a bunch of egg noodles (made with egg yolk) and after they are cooked and drained I add a teaspoon of coconut oil to coat them. After they have cool just a little I then sprinkle them with parmesan cheese. Mine go crazy over this. I keep them in a airtight container in the refrigerator. Mine also enjoy bites of steamed broccoli, squash, green beans and sweet potato. |
When I made rice, I usually make a little extra to blend in with their kibble. All the dogs love it. Peanut butter is another favourite, but a rare treat. Occationally, I'll give her a little taste of chicken, beef, pork... whatever meat we're eating. Lexi only gets a very TINY piece as she can get tummy aches easily. |
Cooked chicken, rice and veg, plain cooked meatballs if we're have spagetti and meatballs, a little bit of egg now and then, tiny bit of ice cream on hot days, lillte bit of cheese from daddy's smoko sandwich if he say's pretty please and Daddy gives him small bits of human biscuits while Mums not looking |
Mine don't eat any type of dog food. I cook for them, so that means they eat just about anything and everything. |

Jackson eats pretty much anything I do minus the really bad fatty junk stuff. Chicken, steak, any meat we eat for dinner, I always save him some plain meat w/o seasonings etc. He loves cheerios and animal crackers. He likes yogurt too. Spaghetti noodles. etc. When I say this... it's not like he gets a whole bowl full or anything. I just give him a few little pieces. |
I give Penny baked kibble I found at a dog bakery in downtown chicago. You can actually watch them make the kibble in the store which is very cool!:D I feed her three meals a day which include her baked kibble, tuna for protein, and cheese for calcium. For dogs who are teething (Penny is still teething) give them cold baby carrots from the fridge. This will sooth their gums, provide a tasty treat, and is healthy for them too. She also gets plain vanilla yogurt from Whole Foods, some scrammbled eggs every once in a while, maybe a small piece of cooked chicken, and an apple slice.:) |
