 And I thought I was bad. I spoil my dogs, but not with fast food!

Re: for all the dog lovers out there....
Sandy sleeps right in between the 2 of us. Sometimes I like it and sometime not. She is funny b/c she gets annoyed if we dont let her get in the middle.

Re: for all the dog lovers out there....
We don't feed Rocky fast food but my mother specifically is making more chicken entrees for dinner because she puts aside a little chcken, steams it, and gives it to him along with his dog food. He's my parents "child" who doesn't answer them back so he gets spoiled.

Re: for all the dog lovers out there....
Sonic HAS to sleep with us every night (with me, not so much with FH)... and he has to physically touch me, either put his paw on me or sleep against my back 
a few times when I have the flu, I put him in his room (the dogs have their own room), he just won't have it, he would bark and cry all night.
VERY spoiled little boy (but I wouldn't feed him a McDonald's cheeseburger though  )

Re: for all the dog lovers out there....
My dog gets lots of people food too. She always has and it's never been an issue for her belly. I know that lots of people say tabel food is bad for a dog, but my first dog got tons of people food and lived until 17- so I just can't buy into that theory.

Re: for all the dog lovers out there....
We feed our dogs meat on occasion (usually a small piece of filet from the butcher), but I don't think I would feed my dogs fast food. That can't be good for the dog's health in the long run.

they say Mutts/mixed breeds are ok with it but not good for pure breeds to eat table food.

It's not...if it's not good for us it certainly can't be good for them.

Exactly. Their digestive systems aren't meant to handle foods w/high fat contents.
Isn't there a n editorial on pets & obesity on the news tonight?

My DH's Aunt does this to her dog all the time. His legs are skinny and his belly is HUGE! He eats table food non stop. The poor dog has major hip problems and can hardly move.

Re: for all the dog lovers out there....
Ladies, Is steamed chicken (the portion is a handful) also bad for a dog? Rocky gets chicken along with his dry food at most 2x a week

Re: for all the dog lovers out there....
We are lucky in that Lacie has no interest in people food. We can eat it around her and she could care less. If a chip or something falls on the floor, she will eat it but that is the extent of it. I am very happy about that!
She is also one that has to sleep in the middle of us at night and touch us in one way or another with her paw or nose. It is cute and I have gotten used to it fast. Now I wake up when she isn't in the bed.

same here. right from day 1 he has always gotten little treats of whatever we are eating. he isn't overweight and seems to have no trouble w/ his digestive tract w/ any kind of food, dog or human. the vet even said to increase his food!

Both my first dog and my dog now are purebreeds- standard shnouwzer and a husky.

My mother always does this for her dogs. I think it's a little extreme, but the dogs love it.

Re: for all the dog lovers out there....
Another one of the reasons table food is not good for dogs on a regular basis is that its usually too soft and it doesnt clean their teeth well enough. My husband's family dog has rotten teeth cause she was fed table food all her life....
