Eating Eggs!? Does anybody feed their pups an egg....?! I have heard a lot of people give thier dog a raw egg, shell and all.... or a spoonful of cottage cheese? |
I have read on the forum that cottage cheese is ok. One of Hueys favorite things is his sunday morning scrambled eggs. Of course this is only about a teaspoon full mixed with a tiny piece of biscuit and bacon, but he sure does love it. |
i give them scrambled eggs plain once in awhile. no shells for my babies. |

I fix Heidi a scrambled egg occasionally. She loves it. No shell or seasoning. |

I feed mine eggs. But not raw. I scramble the egg in a ceramic pan (no oil needed). For some reason, my pups won't eat cottage cheese...but they love ricotta. Sometimes for lunch, I give them a spoonful of ricotta & sprinkle their Solid Gold SeaMeal on top. I used to grind eggshells to a powder & put it in their homecooked food. But then I bought BalanceIt. Plus, I think they get enough calcium in their diet now. They're not puppies anymore, so I don't get too nervous about the extra calcium. But, I also have a Lab. I typically compost my eggshells. But I don't compost as much in the winter as I do in the summer. So, I crush up the eggshells in my hand & mix it around in his food. He's my winter composter ;) |
I give the dogs both cottage cheese and eggs. The cottage cheese just a small teaspoon mixed with their evening kibble if I have no other veggies or meat. They so look forward to their evening surprise! The eggs were a very occassional thing until my DH found it was "ok" then he overdid it :rolleyes: and we had some tummy issues:eek: til I found out what he was up to(every morning!). They are now off eggs-unless I am handling it- a tiny 1/2 tsp once a week. |

I give mine scrambled eggs once or twice a week, and occassionally mix in about a teaspoon and a half of cottage cheese with their dinner, along with veggies. |
I haven't tried cottage cheese yet because Sam is so picky and I want to introduce new foods very slowly. He does love him some scrambled egg, though. I give him a tablespoon mixed with his dry food. Last night I gave him a half teaspoon of coconut vanilla Greek yogurt for an after bath treat. I thought he was going to eat the spoon and all! |
They can have raw eggs...with or without shell and/or cooked eggs. Of course, if you worry at all about the possibility of salmonella, raw eggs might be out. Dogs do handle salmonella differently than us, and have a different tolerance, but it can def be a concern if the dog is immuno compromised in any way. I have a sliced, hard boiled egg on english muffin every morning - I always save 3 little slices for the doggies - so they get a bit of egg every morning. They LOVE those dang eggs, I tell ya. ETA: also, I've given cottage cheese before and they love that too! |
I think if Joel could choose one food it would be scrambled eggs, actually he just had some this morning and when he's done he rubs all over the floor :D |
Eggs I give mine boiled eggs every once in a while. Not very much.. One will eat white, yoke and the other one just yoke. We really don't eat eggs much so that's about all the eggs they get. Cheryl |
