    My dog chases cats and she would eat one if she could ever catch one.
  • My dog likes to eat his own *kitten*. His vet calls them "salty pretzels". Should that be part of my diet, too?? WTF????

    Guess it depends how serious you are about weight loss.

    I guess...But, I'm really worried about the water weight from all of that salt...

    My dog's don't eat dog food. I cook for them. Yup...for real.

    One of my poor dogs has put on weight since I've been losing weight because she eats all of my leftovers. She needs MFP!

    The only part I didn't like was drinking out of the toilet.

    Yes, actually. I believe the way it works is to keep dry kibble in your pockets and eat a bit whenever you get hungry? Unfortunately, I ended up in the hospital doing this.

    ...Then again, I was too busy sitting on the side of the road licking my own *kitten* to notice the car coming.


    Come on, really? I'm sorry to be so judgmental, but there's PLENTY of healthy food out there that you can lose weight while eating. DOG food is meant for DOGS, not people.

    ^^^:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :drinker:

    My own 2 cents: are you f-ing kidding me?? What the heck is so wrong with some veggies???

    My husband is always really jealous of the crunchy food and treats my dog gets. I'm going to suggest this to him. Do you think it might cause any side effects like barking or asking for his belly to be rubbed? Will I need to get him a leash and collar?

    Great News from Frosty Paws-

    Has anyone had any success losing weight and eating their dog's food? The macros are broken down pretty good.

    Is this for real?

    I can't tell if this is serious, the poster is nuts, or if it's a hilarious joke. I'm really hoping the latter however it did make me chuckle because I do eat my birds food! (No, really, not joking.) I feed him this organic ecotrition stuff that has ingredients that are litterally just dried fruit and nuts (no added salt or sugar since birds can't take that) and some bird food pellets thrown into the mix. Some of the nut types are too large for him to eat (he's a sun conure) and he won't touch them (like the pistachios and hazelnuts, they're bigger than his head!). Those nuts are totally mine. I pick them out of the bag before putting in his dish, other wise he'd throw them out onto the floor. Yum! He likes the peanuts though. Fortunately I dislike them so he can keep them. =P

    Do I log that as "bird food" or do I log it as the individual nuts? ^.~

    Edit: Forgot to add, my grandmother gave my dad dogbones to teeth on when he was a babe. Similarly I ended up having no problems with swiping my dogs milkbones and eating them as a kid. They tasted interesting and were very dry but fun to eat. I stopped though once I found animal hair in them (think horse hair) and began to question just WHAT went into making those...

    I haven't been to GNC or any of the nutrition stores lately....can anybody tell me if they sell humor supplements? Some people seem to be highly deficient.

    someone once told someone else that i was eating nothing but cat food.
    but as for things ive seen dogs eat:

    a whole raw frozen turkey
    red peppers
    apples
    a brandy infused christmas cake (someone forgot to put the tin lid on properly and left it on a low bench, the dog staggered to a corner and felt very sorry for itself for the rest of the day)
    so those and the dogfood?

    nah :P

    I heard that a dog food diet can cause certain adverse healthy effects which cause multiple-day hospital stays. Is there any truth to this rumor?

    OR PERHAPS A DOG FOOD DIET WOULD HAVE PREVENTED IT.

    Has anyone had any success losing weight and eating their dog's food? The macros are broken down pretty good.

    I think eating dog food would be worse than mcdonalds. Have you read the crap in dog food? "chicken BY PRODUCT" "corn" NO WAY. I have 4 dogs and while i dont have tons of money in the world, i do feed them the best food i can afford with by product and corn in it....yuck!

    What? You can't afford better food for your dog... just feed your dog what you eat! silly. Or buy cheaper cuts of meat and bones from your butcher. Better yet, go shoot a deer once in awhile, or catch some fish! Dogs are omnivores, like us, and are perfectly capable of eating fresh (and raw) food. Corn and by-products? Not for me or my dogs.

    Omnivores can eat corn FYI
