Grapes, asparagus, mushrooms and onions, it seems, aren’t good for dogs.

 

The dogs seem to like carrots, or anything fried in bacon grease.
They get half a can of pumpkin for a couple of days if they're acting constipated.
They eat grass occasionally.

Generally it's advised to avoid aliums ( onions, garlic, leeks.

 

My dog loves veggis... ESPECIALLY veggis fried in bacon grease

 

We had dogs that liked; 1) peas, 2) cantaloupe, and 3) pears. They would beg for peas while we shelled them and were quick to scarf up any that we'd drop. They would steal pears out of a bucket on the porch and I had one of 'em climb over a garden fence to get a ripe cantaloupe.

Almost seems like they have a sweet tooth. (?)

 

Had a Basset Hound that didn't eat peas. He'd get a bowl of left overs with peas mixed in. When he was done there was always a bunch of clean peas left over. Like from the pot. Perfect clean peas. Was funny

 

Our dog gets raw and cooked vegetables in moderation.

 

When we had our Mini Schnauzer, we used to feed her pieces of bell peppers, loved em, no issues...

 

My wolf dogs would eat almost everything. Penny would eat garlic in her dry dog food if I sautéed it in butter otherwise it would be in the bowl when she was done. I never ate leftovers for like 16 years - I cooked and ate what I wanted and they got the rest. I fed them garlic and brewer's yeast every day. Never fleas and maybe 5 ticks between them in 10+ years.

I made some really spicy elk taco's once (the lid came off the cayenne shaker). It was took hot for Penny but Perry wolfed it down and then would go stick his face in the water bucket.

Hah! My wife’s name is Penni. We’ve always named our dogs after historical people; Kaiser (Wilhelm), Winston (Churchill), Otto (von Bismarck), and now Ivan. But we don’t pronounce Ivan in the Russian way.

 

Raw veggies all the time.

Mine are more aggressive over raw broccoli, cauliflower, sweet potatoes etc than over raw meat.

 

Mine like the firm part of a cabbage or lettuce leaf, carrots, zucchini, etc. definitely prefer it to dry dog food, but not venison or turkey. I’ll get every little scrap of meat off a deer and either boil it or jerkey it for them

 

My old GSD was an omnivore. He especially loved broccoli, along with any other cooked vegetable. GSD 2.0 only eats his kibble and wet dog food. He doesn't like dog treats but loves American cheese singles. So go figure. He's a young guy and he's hyper focused on tasks and procedures it seems. I suspect that down the road he will be less particular about his food. .

 

A friend in collage was William Perry Wolf - He was a landcruiser guy too. Penny Lane the Beatles tune.

 

The dogs get plate scrapes, so they do get the incidental veggie. I used to cook “gruel” for them, chicken, rice, potato, and any excess veggies in the fridge.

We used to have a Great Dane that would graze in the orchard & garden……she would pick her own figs, strawberries, blackberries, watermelons, zucchini, etc. Then again she was a hunter as well, she’d kill & eat rabbits, raccoons, feral piglets, gophers etc……..a true survivalist.

 

I'm very impressed! We caught a hog with our snare last night and claiming it was no easy feat.

 

My wife's Yorkie will eat green beans every day if we let her. One of my bigger dogs has learned how to get to the low hanging pears on one of our trees.

 

All my dogs have loved most fruits and veggies.

 

Our "Jug"....loves broccoli...

 

My standard poodles eat anything. Salad, citrus, carrot, apple pear banana...peanut and so forth

 

My Corgi's favorites are carrots, sweet potatoes, dill pickles, and lettuce --- no particular order.

 

Ive got a rhodesian ridgeback, he acts like he wants vegetables. When i give him one he will gingerly take it walk into the next room, and set it on the ground. He'll stare at it for 20 seconds and then look at me like im the idiot.

Of course, any kind meat trimmings he goes nuts for and i swear he doesnt even taste 'em.

 

thats sooo funny. I had a golden retriever that did exactly the same thing.. He literally would curl his lips back so they wouldnt touch the veggi then walk away and set it down and stare are me.. Funny they do that

 

Last dog loved fruits and veggies. I would regularly give him pumpkin, sweet potatoes, green beans. He would patiently wait and stare at anyone eating a banana, knowing he'd get the last bite. And when we were done with an apple,, we'd hold the core and he would nibble it with his front nippy teeth like it was corn on the cob. It was hilarious taking him blackberry picking with me, he'd find the ripe ones and carefully nibble them off the briars as to not get prickled. No tomatoes, melons, or squash in the garden were ever safe from him. Except cukes. He did not like cukes.

New pup is getting a raw carrot every day, to clean his teeth and to deworm. And it gives him something other than my table legs to chew on. He has also had sweet potatoes and pumpkin, and likes those. After he is completely housebroken, I'll introduce more veggies into his diet.

 

I had a mastiff puppy that stole zucchini out of the garden.
Edit; I found a photo but the quality of the download is poor.

 

Carrot, cucumber and pumpkin. He also grazes on the lawn sometimes.

 

Oh, and I forgot wheat sprouts. Dog absolutely loved wheat sprouts.

Farm dogs would fight with each other and the horses for watermelon rinds. Golden loved steamed broccoli, rescue mutt has digestive issues so gets homemade baked treats with pumpkin,ground up oatmeal, egg, and peanut butter powder.

 

I don't know about dogs, but our cat loves avacado. She'll turn he nose up at canned salmon, but slice an avacado and she's right there!

 

My cat kills mice and drops them right in front of the coffee pot. So I can step on them barefoot first thing in the morning, I guess.

 

Always kept a bag of those "baby" carrots in the fridge as dog treats.
Dog liked those better than Milk bones...

miss that dog...

Got a cat now. No interest, lol
