We do not use artificial preservatives or colors, corn, salt or bleached flour in any of our biscuits. People Foods that are Toxic For Dogs: Chocolate/Caffeine Chocolate contains theobromine, a compound that is a cardiac stimulant and a diuretic. Symptoms include labored breathing, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, tremors, fever, heart rate increase, arrhythmia, seizures, coma, death this can happen 24 hours after the dog has ingested Chocolate or Caffeine. Cocoa powder and cooking chocolate are the most toxic for dogs. Semi-sweet chocolate and dark chocolate are the second most dangerous forms. Onions/Garlic Onions and garlic contain the toxic ingredient thiosulphate. Onions are more of a danger. Pets affected by onion toxicity will develop haemolytic anemia. Symptoms include Hemolytic Anemia, vomiting, liver damage, labored breathing, discolored urine, diarrhea, While garlic also contains the toxic ingredient thiosulphate, it contains much less therefore garlic would have to be eaten in large quantities to cause toxicity. Baby Food: Certain Baby Foods contain onion powder, which can be toxic to dogs. Mushrooms Mushroom toxicity does occur in dogs and it can be fatal if certain species of mushrooms are eaten so we suggest avoiding all mushrooms. Better to be safe than sorry. Grapes/Raisins Raisins or grapes can make a dog sick. Symptoms include vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and lethargy. Effects the Kidneys. Alcohol/Beer/Wine/Hops Can cause Coma or death.

Excessive Fatty Foods/High Fat Dairy Can cause Pancreatitis, gas and diarrhea. Bones from fish, poultry, or other meat sources Can cause obstruction or laceration of the digestive system. Cat Food Cat food is generally too high in protein and fats. Milk and other dairy products Some adult dogs and cats do not have sufficient amounts of the enzyme lactase, which breaks down the lactose in milk. This can result in diarrhea. Lactose-free milk products are available for pets. Raw Eggs Raw eggs may contain Salmonella. In addition to this raw eggs contain an enzyme, avidin which decreases the absorption of biotin, which can cause hair/coat and skin problems. Avocado Moldy Foods Human Vitamins Macadamia Nuts Winter Tips for you and your dog Now that winter is upon us remember your dog still needs exercise. A dog should get at least 60 minutes of exercise daily not only for physical needs but mental as well. However, if you are playing/walking outside for an extended period of time during the cold weather remember to bring your dog indoors at once so they do not get Hypothermia. Also dogs with arthritis are much more sensitive in the cold. My dog Tanqueray has arthritis therefore she spends a very limited time outside during the cold months. My gigantic dog Baccarat has to get his daily exercise if he doesn’t he gets so depressed and sometimes even chases his tail – not a good sign. On those days when it is too cold we play 'find the ball or biscuit'. I send my dogs to their room, shut the door then hide either their balls or biscuits throughout the house. Then I open the door and say “Find the ball" (or biscuits). It works wonders. We first started playing this game with biscuits. They catch on much faster with biscuits (of course). On those cold days I do this several times a day and I must say they get a pretty good workout. Choose your deicer carefully. Choose one that will not burn your dogs paws. A safe, pet friendly deicer product. WALK SAFE will not burn pets paws or cause irritation. This is a non-corrosive, all natural product that does not contain chlorides of any kind.
