I saw this and it said broccili can be poisionous for dogs. I have never heard of that. Jake loves cooked broccili

hmmmm, all three of mine eat it too and Witt loves it.

In fact, I have tossed my dogs a whole pear or apple in the summer, they lay in the yard and naw on it and it keeps them busy. I don't think they have ever gotten to the core though or ingested it.
Dooley is a coffee theif, if I leave my coffee sitting anywhere he will sneak into it. He has also gotten into the garbage after the grounds and made a huge mess.
I wonder why the apple cores aren't harmful for horses, I would think arcenic would be poisonous to all.
It would be so much easier if the dogs had a little detector and alarm that went off when they were about to eat something bad. Maybe like those car alarms that talk, lol

Hi, my dogs eat apples including the core and they have had no reaction to them.
They have also eaten broccoli with no ill effects.

One of my dogs loves coffee she will easily drink anyones cuppa that is put down and wont think twice heheheheh..

As for Patato peels if these are boiled they can be given to a dog that is under weight as this helps them gain weight i used this method for one of my rescue dogs.

So i think it must just be certain types of dogs that this happens to..

Just my opinion

It's interesting that you brought this up honeybear. My family was just here and we were discussing how apple seeds contain arsenic. In fact my aunt was teasing about feeding her horses more apples. I believe that, and this may not be for all of those, that it is just dangerous in large amounts. Notice the heading for the column was POTENTIAL dangers. My mother in law has always fed her dog grapes for a good 10 years until recently she heard they were bad. I think you should take it with a grain of salt and just be careful about how much you feed of these things in the future.
