My Dog Eats Lemons & Grapes!

Though your story sounds cute, being a dog lover myself, I should warn you that feeding some fruits are not good to our pets; GRAPES- can cause kidney failure, did you know that even one piece of raisin could kill your pet? ; ORANGES (and other citric fruits)- too much acid is not good for dogs; APPLE- just be sure that you remove the seeds first for seeds are poisonous to them. FYI only

That is interesting. I hope it is not hurting him at all. I guess if it doesn't, than that is ok. Well, except that you probably don't want him eating your fruit before you can. He seems like a very creative and cute dalmation. And ingenious, he has found a way to get back at you all, for not giving him any toy balls to play with...amazing.

Lololol well mine eats Carrots and Cabbage but is not to keen on Fruit lol. I am suprised at the Lemon though lol I mean I like Lemons but sometimes they certainly screw my Face up lol.

Thats so funny .. I can't imagine him eating a lemon ...lol its so sour ...does he make faces or anything when hes eating the lemons ... I don't know if you have America's Funniest vidoes where you live but you should video him doing that and send the video to them ...hey you might win $10,000 ...you never know I sure have never seen a dog eating lemons that he has picked himself ... :D

Lol, Thats one healthy dog :) But don't let him eat too much otherwise he'll get fat...

That has to be cute but probably a pain. I've never heard of a dog go and picks its own fruit. My dog loves fruit and just about anything else that you can give him there are a few things that my dog will NOT eat but i've found that his favorite food is eating apples he loves apples.

We had a dog that would eat corn on the cob, including the cob! This dog was a human garbage disposal. He would eat anything you tossed to him. I am not sure about lemons though. He may have passed on those.

My too.. when is young eat a strange food, fruits, vegetals, also drink a coffè, now are 12 years and are noiose.......but I love my dog You is very beatifull...miux dalmata my are neticcio.mix at race

Most dogs seem to enjoy eating fruit, whether it is a few mouthfuls of a piece of fruit that their owner is eating, the skins and cores of such fruit as apples or pears, or many that live near apple, plum or nectarine trees, grapevines or berry canes, seem to almost live on fruit that they pull off the trees themselves. Fruit is a natural food that dogs in the wild would find and eat so there is nothing wrong with a dog eating fruit, within reason! Any fruit eaten in excess could upset your dog's stomach and cause diarrhoea, cramps, gas, allergies, or severe gastrointestinal problems - in the same way as it can affect people who eat too much fruit. For a young, healthy dog, a few "snacks" should be fine as long as your dog still has a normal stool. It can be difficult to stop a dog from over-indulging in windfall fruit that is constantly accessible. Many will enjoy fruit so much that they continue eating it, even though they develop diarrhoea. If it becomes obvious that your dog is eating far too much fruit, the simple remedy is to keep windfall fruit off the ground or keep your dog away from the fruit trees until his/her stomach returns to normal, then restrict fruit eating to one or two pieces daily.

Never had a do go and pick their own but I did have a dog that begged and went nuts for fruit. He was a shih-tzu and he loved to have grapes, banannas, and apples in particular. He wasn't big on the citrus fruit but everything else he was. Never had a dog who did that before or after him. I thought it was a bit strange but it's nice to hear others are like that as well.

I used to give my dog grapes, and the occasional bit of chocolate as well, until I found out that both are poisonous to dogs. There are a number of different fruits that dogs cannot take, because their digestive system is different from humans. There is a comprehensive list of dog poisons at:- http://www.peteducation.com/category_summary.cfm?cls=2&cat=1684 I would suggest that you look at this website before feeding your dog anything but propriety dog-food, even things like potatoes, garlic & onions can cause problems, some dogs lack the enzyme lactase so milk gives them diarrhoea. Take care of your dog - THINK BEFORE YOU FEED.

this dog seems very naughty i have pet who is decent

its great to know buddy that your dog is herbivorous or else i have not seen any dog eating fruits and herbs butflesh and other things,its nice to notice that your dog is so environment friendly.

i just want you to remember that many people at the worldwide want to eat frouts and they can not , and they die from hangry

awww. thats adorable. your dog sounds like quite the character!

Oh my dog also eats some strange things that you would not think that a dog would eat. From carrots to apples. Sometimes you just dont know with your pets.

That is just too funny! I've never heard of a dog that likes to eat fruit before. It does make one wonder what the appeal is for him to eat the lemons. lol I know I used to have a cat who would try to eat oranges. Any time I had an orange, she'd sit beside me and beg for a bite. When I'd give her a little piece, she'd take a bite, then proceed to shake her head furiously to get it back out of her mouth again. I could just tell the taste didn't sit well with her at all. I could never figure out why time and time again, she would come back and keep begging for oranges. Well, this was also the cat who would eat flies and crickets. But that's a whole other post! lol

Oh thats so funny. I have a Beagle that loves to get at all our tomatoe plants in the summer. He eats them right from the vines. He seems to prefer the Grape Tomatoes the best. He also eats most anything such as dry pasta at times. He loves veggies of most types also. My wife works at a Middle Eastern Restaraunt & she brings home leg of lamb bones for him. He about knocks her over to get at it. He doesnt like candy too much thank gawd. He licks sugar off cookies & candy then leaves the remains for me to find. Usually I find it by stepping on a gross wet itme. HAHAHA. My beagle is called BUSTER btw. Thanks for a great & funny topic actually. Loved all the response/comments also. Keep posting & have a blast.

oh that is so adorable. my terrier puppy likes to eat all vegetables. he likes carrots, beans, all other leafy vegetables. he likes raisins too. he also has this craving for bread and pastries. ehhehee.

I cat sat a cat that likes bananas lol, so we split them while he was with me! Of course i peeled the skin off and gave him little chunks..... my own cat eats baloney! :-)
