Rocky loves his carrot stick snacks as we both have these throughout the day. He will also eat a small piece of raw red pepper, never known another dog to eat this.

Tomatoes can be toxic in large amounts.
My 2 get a small piece now n again.

Rule of thumb is moderation.

lots of different views and opinions here. Im going to get some wainwrights dry food and try here with that and veg etc mixed in to vary it a little. Ill also give her raw veg and fruit if she wants any and see how things go for now. Hopefully we can wean her off the wet food and the other dried food she eats.

Thanks for all the comments Smile

Don't forget that dogs cannot digest raw vegetables unless they are pulped, and cooking removes about 90% of the goodness.

Many dogs like raw veg, but they get very little from them.

That's a really good way to feed them!

Mind you, loads of dogs like raw veg - I give Dempsey the odd lump of carrot or cabbage simply because he likes it.

a good way to do it, is blend/pulp it and fill ice cube trays with it, so you can pop a cube or 2 out and give them frozen or leave the cubes to defrost rather then defrosting the whole lot Smile

Broccoli is ok in small doses. It contains an irritant (can't remember - or spell - the exact name of it!), which in large amounts can cause gastric problems, but the odd bit once in a while is ok.

Whoops, gave Loki a bit of broccoli the other day. I generally don't give Loki any vegetables at all, just very rarely when there's a bit left over. If I want to add something to his dry food, I'll add some chicken, lamb, crusts from my bread, ham, sardines, etc. Just depends on what's left over; I do buy him a tin of sardines now and again though just to keep things interesting, but I don't do it often because I don't want him to get fussy. A few times he sees his meal is just dry food and looks up at me in disgust Laughing so I do it occasionally. Also give him lamb hearts for breakfast. Vegetables...eh, he can take them or leave them.

Our Skye loves her veggies - she especially likes the crunchy ones like carrots and peppers. She loves fruit too - bananas, apples, melon.
