My dad makes two sandwhiches in the morning, one for him and one for my bro (they work together). I don't think he gives her a piece per sandwhich but I know she gets at least one every weekday morning.
Um, excuse me but you just failed to understand a simple post... so spare me the psycho rant and go learn to read (and write...). Just for the record, and before another person freaks out about it, chocolate is not a 'slow poison' for dogs. It's simply a fact that a smaller amount of chocolate is required for dogs to achieve a toxic level of theobromine in their system. Dogs can metabolise theobromine, and it doesn't accumulate if there is no input. According to a veterinary factsheet I just pulled from Google, the minimum toxic dose threshold of theobromine in dogs is 46 to 68 mg/lb. Assuming my dog was at the very bottom of the scale, and taking his lightest weight as an adult (40 lb), to achieve a toxic dose he would have had to eat 1840 mg of theobromine. Although my family always ate milk chocolate (typically 2-3 mg/g of theobromine) we will again err on the side of caution, and assume my dog ate the richest consumer chocolate at 6 mg/g. For him to have eaten a toxic dose, he would have had to eat 307 grams of chocolate. Ie. an entire family-sized block of this very strong chocolate. So... considering that firstly, we didn't know any better... There weren't flyers put in your mailboxes or vets ringing you up out of the blue to tell you about this. It was unknown, and the internet was still in its infancy. Secondly, my dog never ate even close to 307 grams within probably a year of his life (and theobromine's half life in dogs is about 17.5 h), he probably wasn't at the very bottom of the scale in terms of toxic threshold, and he was never exposed to strong chocolate, as we all preferred milk chocolate... So I think I can do without the lectures on how to look after my old dog now?
[quote name='"welker 420"'] Sometimes I take a broom and push his bowl around and piss him off on purpose though haha.[/quote] It may be entertaining to you but you are provoking and increasing his food aggression which could lead to something horrible if he thinks that behavior is okay.
