Congrats on the 'will be 17', i hope you have a great last few years. I am sure at that stage, I'd let Medjai do just about whatever he wants too. He loves to eat people food, but I don't let him. Maybe I'll let him get a couple select table scraps when he gets old.

As with humans and peanuts…. My Maggii that is and has been in renal failure 2 yrs this coming June.. loves frozen grapes… and you know... at this point in her life... (will be 17 in August)... she can have some... but of course I limited them to 2 or 3... at a time...
Good analogy, Pat. Most of us can eat peanuts no problem…but deathly toxic for a few, a moderately toxic for more.
I am so happy that Maggii is doing so well, despite her renal failure! Long live the queen!

People food is not bad for dogs at all, what is bad is the "scraps"… food that you eat (meat, veggies, starches, etc) are all fine as many cook their own dog food straight from regular food. Typically "scraps" are the stuff we will not eat... ggg... so neither should the dogs. Mine eat people food all the time along with dog kibble and raw.... of course kibble is the easiest...

I thought people food was fine as long as you don't have all sorts of spices and such on it, but what Medjai wants the most is like my bbq sauce, especially with the meat under it. I just figure he can have some when I'm making it, but once I start to season it, NO. I could be wrong, but at least I'm wrong on the right side. Good quality dog food, is better than food from my plate, when I'm not sure if it's good for him or not.

Usually the BBQ sauce has sugar in it… not surprising that he would want that... and spices have never bothered mine... :p usually if too spicey they just will not eat it... But there is nothing wrong with your thinking at all...

Our two B's now have acquired a taste for Guinness. The other night I was watching t.v. and they sneaked up to me without me even noticing them and started licking my pint!!! Now when our boy sees that I have one he follows me around just waiting for another opportunity to get it.
